The Million Dollar Challenge: An engaging and fun gamified quiz
Hello! 👋 I would like to share another project I’ve been working on — The Million Dollar Challenge, a fully interactive, game-based quiz experience that I built with some help from AI. This project is based on a popular gameshow, applying the same mechanics and gameplay to the quiz. With some prompts, guidance, and code generation from AI, here's a game that’s fun, challenging, and suitable for embedding into any course. Just tweak the question and answer choice sets and you'll have a game that could help achieve your course learning objectives. Usability: Easy to Play: One click to start, intuitive question/answer flow. Engaging Learning Tool: Perfect for knowledge checks, gamified assessments, or review activities. Customizable: Swap out questions, tweak prize amounts, change colors, or edit sounds to match your brand. Accessible Interaction: Clear text, large clickable buttons, and visual cues. Give The Million Dollar Challenge a try in this demo and let me know your thoughts on how you can integrate this into your e-learning projects if this is something that you would actually use for serious topics (compliance, safety training) or lighthearted refreshers. If you have suggestions on how to make the game even better, feel free to let me know; would love to know what you think. 🙂Reading a Micrometer
My first foray into Rise Coding using ChatGPT and very little knowledge of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. I am excited with the results so far, but I know I have some refinement to do. Maybe making the overall package smaller. For example, when I upload it into Rise, it takes some time to load, then it works fine. I am not even sure how to upload the file here.Fun and Gamified Learning with Code Block (Beta) feature in Artiulate Rise 360
Developed using Artiulate Rise 360’s new Code Block (Beta) feature, this interactive game challenges learners to click targets before they disappear. Each target adds points.

This week’s challenge entry explores when open text questions are most useful. Instead of scoring or tracking, the interaction focuses on reflection: learners type their own response, compare it with a model answer, and then give themselves a simple self-rating. It’s a light, playful build in a retro console style, designed to show how the Rise Code Block can be used for more than just quizzes. The interaction demonstrates how to: Encourage learner ownership through reflection. Blend open text entry with self-assessment. Keep feedback flowing without breaking immersion. The full HTML/CSS/JS code sits just below the interaction, so you can lift it and repurpose or remix it as you like. Check it out here!Hoppy Adventures: Coin Capture
Hoppy Adventures: Coin Capture Just a fun spin on assessments - inspired by Jeff Batt's Code block YouTube video. Hoppy is the mascot at my company so a fun play on including it into the game made sense. I know, I know, should have been frogger. You go around collecting coins, dodging predators, and answering questions to level up. I tried to blend old school 8-bit novelty and Pacman type gameplay and movement with the coin gathering. After every 10 coins, players pause to answer a multiple-choice question—six in total—to complete the module. Questions are built into a JSON file so we can manage and track easier. This build seemed like a fun way to try out this new feature. Try it here!New Code Block Game
It's been a long time since I shared my work, but I'm really pumped up about the potential of the new Code Block in Rise. I started with a basic idea and then started vibe coding. It's amazing what can be achieved in a short space of time, and have been resisting the temptation to just have fun, and instead focussed on keeping my work learning focussed. A couple of learnings: The power of the code block will be really unlocked if Articulate can... Allow us to upload zip folders with images in them. Everything says you can, but I have yet to have a single successful upload. Provide code/facility to allow a code that can report course completion based on the code i.e. when a game is completed completion can be sent - even better if scores can be included. When course continuation can be linked to code block completion it enables true gamification. Not being able to include images is a limitation, but not a blocker - you will notice I have included some very rudimentary graphics by encoding the images as base64, however it seems Rise has a limitation of not being able to read base64 strings longer than 500 characters at present. As I suspect will be the case for many others, I, work for a company with very stringent security policies, so we aren't allowed file storage solutions. If there can be a basic image storage allowance for zip code blocks, that changes the game! Would love your feedback you wonderful humans. Review LinkNYT Connections Clone
I've heard a lot about vibe coding over the last year, but this was my first attempt at building anything. I've got to say, it's incredible how quickly this came together with only a few prompts and zero clumsy attempts from me to try to remember various HTML elements and attributes. With a little inspiration from my cookbook shelf and the New York Times Games app, I had a fully functional Connections clone in a Rise course in about an hour. The possibilities for this are endless and I'm eager to see where people take this going forward.

👉 Try the demo and read more about the project here: BSL eLearning Demo – Hand Tracking with Rise Custom Code Blocks For this week’s Articulate E-Learning Heroes Challenge exploring the new Custom Code Block feature in Rise 360, I built a proof of concept that blends eLearning design with cutting-edge computer vision. My project demonstrates how a Rise lesson page can host a real-time British Sign Language (BSL) hand tracking system, powered by MediaPipe hand landmark detection and custom recognition algorithms. Learners receive immediate interactive feedback as they practise forming BSL letters in front of their webcam – all seamlessly embedded within Rise.
