Storyline: Comics-Style Communication Branching Scenario
If you’re looking for ideas on how to create a course that’s tailored to your learners, then look no further! This comics-style Storyline 360 example uses a combination of interactive storytelling, branching techniques, and decision-making scenarios, where learners get to make choices and learn from the results.

About the Project I previously posted this entry for the Asking vs. Telling: Creating Interactive E-Learning #455 challenge and am now reposting it for this challenge as well, as it perfectly fits the theme. In this example, we’ll explore onboarding at a fictional company, where new employees need to understand the company’s core values. We’ll illustrate how this can be done using Push and Pull methods in an e-learning environment. Push: A simple slide lists the core values. It's clear but lacks engagement, presenting information passively. Pull: A branching video quiz that immerses employees in real-life situations. They make decisions based on the company’s core values, making the experience interactive and helping with retention. By comparing Push (static slide) to Pull (branching scenarios), I demonstrate how interactivity enhances the learning experience, ensuring employees.

Games can be an amusing way to pass the time, but they can also encourage people to engage thoughtfully with complex and difficult topics. The Re-Entry Journey, winner of DemoFest’s Best Game-based Project award at DevLearn 2023, shows how much of an impact learning experiences like this can have on players. In this Storyline 360 game, learners take on the role of someone reentering society on probation. They start the game with what at the surface might appear to be a simple goal—make it to the end of their probation period without incurring additional playtime or added penalties. But that seemingly basic task is incredibly challenging in real life, with the deck stacked against people right from the beginning. To simulate that experience, this game is intentionally difficult and weaves in many of the complex real-world choices that people face in this situation. While the gameplay in The Re-Entry Journey may be challenging, the process used to create it was not! This game was developed almost entirely using Storyline 360’s built-in features, with JavaScript only stepping in to help with the timer. Built on a single slide with multiple layers, most of the magic happens thanks to one of Storyline 360’s core features—triggers. It just goes to show how far you can push Storyline 360 to create unexpected learning experiences. Explore this project.

Hi everyone. Here's our plan: We want to create a chain of short microlearning courses that each cover one specific topic of our company strategy. Learners, however, only have to take a course if they don't pass a pre-assessment for a specific topic. Let me visualize the idea for you here: Every time a learner fails the entry test, they get taken to the respective learning. Should they pass it, however, they can move on to questions about the next topic. Our Learning Management System is SAP SUCCESS MAP LEARNING. We need Storyline 360 to report all pre-assessment results back to our Learning Management System so that we can ensure we track those who pass entry tests as well as those who end up having to take the microlearnings. Does anyone have experience with this? Is what we're trying to do even possible? Any help is much appreciated!Scenario Block Image Compression
I'm on a very fast internet connection, but noticed when testing a clients Rise360 course that there was a flicker when new character images loaded. As an experiment I created a scenario in a Rise course and published it, just so I could check the image output for the characters. I gathered all of the character assets into a single folder, and it is 12.4mb for 12 characters. Just over 1mb each. This seems really large for a PNG asset, even with transparency. I experimented running the images through TinyPNG, just one pass, and the output reduced the size to a total of 2.91mb. An average of 0.24mb, which is 1/4 of the original size, without any visible loss in quality. I think this is significant to look at, as we would expect the assets that are bundled with courses to be optimised for our users. This should be JS, CSS and any other assets in the course so that it is as quick as possible to download, especially for mobile. If anybody is interested in seeing the difference, I am including the before and after images as an attachment on this post. Edit: Attachments don't appear to be working for posts.
