In this short tutorial, I walk through how I use Visily.ai to create a polished 12-slide AI moodboard for training and instructional design projects. The workflow is simple: gather your inspo, align with brand assets, write a clear prompt in Grok 4.1, and let Visily.ai generate high-fidelity layouts that guide the entire visual direction of the course. This approach helps you explore concepts quickly and present a strong visual foundation before moving into development. You can watch the full breakdown here: https://youtu.be/AcndXNYe7DM?si=kCcFqOon9vyBZuf111Views0likes0CommentsBest Certification for Breaking into Instructional Design field
I am mentoring an Educator (with a Master's in Teaching) and 15 years of teaching fifth-grade science as well as pre-school. This educator wants to transfer her skills to break into the Instructional Design field. What are the best certifications programs for this type of professional?1.6KViews1like15CommentsHow to create a branching scenario
Hello! I'm an instructional design student and brand new to this. I have an assignment due soon that I've been working really hard on! It's a branching scenario starting with 4 initial choices. I thought I could do this in Rise 360 as an interactive scenario, but it doesn't seem to let me go far enough. I've watched several tutorials (which is why I though I could do this), and the AI pop up help isn't much help either. I don't think I have time to watch all of the tutorials. I'm hoping someone can let me know if this is possible - and if not, what do I need to do for next steps to create this? Maybe I need to work in Storyline? It's a lot of steps.... I probably made it too complicated for a beginner project. It's a group project though, so I'm committed and I'd love to get it done as efficiently as possible.42Views0likes2CommentsAnomalie d'un curseur
Bonjour, J'ai un e-learning sur lequel est proposĂ© une slide avec 7 calques. Un curseur est proposĂ© pour avancer au fur et Ă mesure sur les calques. Cela marche correctement, plusieurs utilisateurs ont pu faire le dĂ©roulĂ© correctement sur Rise Up. Toutefois, je viens d'avoir 2 utilisateurs qui ne voient pas le curseur : l'une dĂšs le 1er calque, l'autre au 5e. Auriez-vous une explication ? Merci,5Views0likes0CommentsHow are you approaching learning creation in your organization beyond âtraditionalâ L&D use cases?
Hey ELH community đ, We know that learning creation doesnât live solely within L&D or instructional design teams. In large organizations especially, managers, training, enablement teams, and other departments are increasingly creating their own learning to meet team and business needs. Weâre curious how thatâs playing out in your organization. If youâre in L&D, whatâs holding you back from bringing on more teams create courses in Articulate? Are there particular challengesâtechnical, process-related, or culturalâthat make it harder to open things up? And if you have scaled and democratized course creation with Articulate beyond L&D, whatâs helped it work well? Weâd love to learn from your experiences; whatâs working, whatâs not, and what would make it easier. ~ The Articulate Research Team400Views6likes6Comments8 Business Use Cases for Microlearning
Are you excited to try out microlearning, but unsure when to use it? Below, we outline eight common workplace situations that benefit from a short-form course. Each situation includes a sample microlearning. At the end, learn how you can customize these templates for your own company and training needs. 1. Create Organizational Alignment To hit a business target, everyone needs to be moving in the same direction. Creating that alignment starts with clear, frequent communication of the shared mission, vision, and values. Microlearning can help. The following editable template shows how you can align employees through regular executive âmicroâ updates: Executive Update 2. Highlight HR Information, Notices, or Reminders Educating employees about annual events like open enrollment, tax season, and compliance training is a critical function of HR teams. The problem? Important announcements often get missed when theyâre embedded in long paragraphs or endless emails. Grab the following templates to see how microlearning makes HR communications more digestible and engaging: A Quick Guide To Open Enrollment Internal Company Newsletter 3. Strengthen Company Culture and DEI Initiatives Fostering an inclusive company culture is a continuous processânot a one-time effort. A series of microlearnings can support your larger culture-building and DEI efforts. Check out the following examples for ideas on how to get started: Are You an Ally? Try Taking on These 5 Roles How To Identify and Stop Using Ableist Language Gossip-Proof Your Workplace 4. Streamline Business Processes You can also use microlearning to document and streamline business processes or workflowsâsuch as employee onboarding or performance management. Notice how the following examples make it easy for employees to work through the steps of a process independently: New Hire Pre-Hire Checklist Performance Review and Feedback 5. Increase Security Awareness Most successful data breaches, phishing attacks, and other cybersecurity incidents are caused by human error. Adding refresher microlearnings throughout the year can fortify your defenses. See an example for safeguarding against phishing attacks below: Spot the Phish 6. Enhance Employee Wellness A successful business needs thriving employees. But employee wellness training often ends up buried under competing priorities. Microlearning makes it easy for employees to fit in short breaks for self-care throughout the workday. Check out these two wellness-related microlearning examples: 3 Desk Stretches to Instantly Improve Your Day 5 Tips for Better Naps 7. Provide Quick-Reference Guides Microlearning is the perfect resource for one-off training questions: Employees can quickly find the answers they needâwhen they need them. Below, weâve created templates for product and software training. But you could easily create quick-reference guides for sales, customer service, and other teams. Get To Know [Name of Product] Software Training 8. Reinforce and Assess Key Takeaways Finally, who says you have to choose between a more sizable course and microlearning? Repetition aids retention. Consider following up longer training sessions with a microlearning quiz, scenario, or summary. The examples listed below demonstrate how you might do this: Can You Recover From a Workplace Mistake?

Weâre in an era where anyone can make studio-level visuals in minutes. But real creators know the secret isnât AI alone, itâs how you fuse it with your own craft. In my latest YouTube video, I walk through how I designed Kai inside a 3D scene, a 3D low-poly character for an eLearning scene, combining Blender modeling with AI tools like Seedream and Gemini. The result? A branded, professional-grade animation that stays original and on-style. If youâre a learning experience designer, 3D artist, or just exploring how to use AI effectively, this oneâs for you. Watch the full video on YouTube and see how to stay creative in the AI era.23Views0likes0CommentsStoryline competency matrix
Hi everyone, I've been tasked with upskilling my team in Storyline. I'm starting by putting together a tech competency matrix and wanted to know if anyone had any examples they've used (or if Articulate has one -- I couldn't find anything by searching). The matrix will have X number of core skills and 5 levels of expertise in each skill. I then need to specify which tasks fall into each core skill. For example, maybe one core skill is triggers and states. What specific tasks would go in that category in each expertise level? What core skills have other people used, and what tasks have you put in those skills? Thanks in advance!73Views0likes4Comments
