English School - Code Block Demo
Premise English irregular verbs are like that one "eccentric" relative at the Christimas family dinner: they follow absolutely zero rules, change their entire identity without warning, and seem specifically designed to ruin your day, but after a few awkward encounters, you eventually learn their quirks and stop calling them by the wrong name. That´s why I created this demo using Code Block in Rise, to help students to learn english in a fun and gamified way. Prompt To create it, I used this prompt with Gemini: "Write HTML, CSS, y JavaScript for an excercise like call of duty to use in Rise 360 Code Block. Use blue and green and yellow as main colours. It´s a shooting game. You will have to shoot the irregular verbs that you find. If you hit a irregular verb, you win 5 points, if you hit a regular verb you lose 10 points. It´s an excercise in elearning for english students." I twisted along to way to add the background music, and later on in Rise I altered the code to change colours, fonts, timer, speed of the words appearing, etc. Course Demo You can check the course here: https://360.articulate.com/review/content/39bd6260-4647-4cd7-84c9-731a83677417/reviewSwitching between languages in the LMS
Hi everyone, how are you? I used the "Localization" feature in a course. After making the content available, when selecting a language I can't revert to the original language. What am I doing wrong? Choice of language After this, it is no longer possible to change the language. Thank you in advance.Translating a course into Farsi
Hi Everyone. I am still pretty new to Articulate and brand new to the world of translating an e-learning. I apologise in advance if I am on the wrong forum as I am not subscribed to Articulate Localisation so my question is not about that service but translation in general. I have spent the whole day researching the best way to translate my small eLearning from English to Farsi, using copilot and ChatGPT as advisors. Various tools like Smartcat, Crowdin, Localise were recommended but the pricing plan felt high for me given I am just starting out and the NGO i am developing my first e-learning for also doesn't have a lot of money to pay out each month. In short, given I already had the content translated into Farsi in a word document, I decided to manually upload the Farsi version into Rise and then align/format the text. For those elements that I was unable to align within Rise (a handful of headings and MCQs), I decided to export a XLIFF copy and using Poedit make the necessary edits/format changes. I then successfully managed to import the updated version of the XLIFF file which I was happy about as I read it can be problematic. However for the headings I was struggling to align/format - instead of correcting them to a RTL alignment it changed the headings to the original heading with the tags as text instead of interpreting them. Regarding the RTL formatting of MCQs ChatGPT said this was not possible as the formatting was baked in within Rise. When I reported back to ChatGPT about my issue with the headings and asked if I used more powerful translation tools like Localazy would I have the same issue, ChatGPT implied yes. I appreciate ChatGPT doesn't know everything. My conclusion at the end of todays research is the best thing is to continue to manually enter my translated material and make the alignment changes I can do within Rise and just accept some things wont be aligned perfectly and thats ok. However before I make this compromise (as I know I might get frustrated with this compromise as the 'test' lesson happened to be relatively simply formatted whereas other lessons have bullets, timelines, image and text blocks, etc.. which might throw up more challenges) I thought I'd seek any advice from this forum of experts. If anyone has any advice, similar experience and solutions (hopefully) or just confirmation that I need to accept this compromise I'd much appreciate it. Many thanks in advance for time and expertise. Kind regards KatheirneLocalization - Videos, Assets, Audio+
To set the stage, I created a Storyline course in English and localized it into Spanish. In this course, I have 4 external video files and an external podcast audio. The first video file I remade in Vyond in Spanish and when I uploaded it the Spanish version of the SL course, it replaced it in the original source (EN) file. How can I prevent this from happening? I imagine I will have the same issues with the other 3 video files as well. Additionally, I added an icon and a text box to the Spanish only version of the course and it carried back to the original source (EN) file. How can I prevent this from happening? I have a podcast audio file (external .wav) with 2 voices as part of this same course. Are there any tools you can recommend to have this localized into Spanish? Last, and a little bit of a different topic... The options for Mexican and Spain (formal/informal) Spanish are not appropriate for most US cities across the country. Can we add a request for Latin American Spanish to be added to the roadmap, as a priority?Import multiple SRT caption files, so the learner can pick multiple languages when watching a video.
Hello, I would like to import 16 SRT files to a video in Storyline, so the learner can pick the language they want to read during a video. I realize this isn't possible to do now. However, could you create this feature?Updates to existing course in many languages, translations via Word import
Hi all, do you have any suggestions for the best approach in this situation? We have an existing course with several languages within the course, and people choose their language via branching within the course. (best approach given our LMS system) Every year the content of this course gets reviewed and updates are made. The source language is English and the updates are done in this source language by a native speaker. This review is not done directly in Articulate (reviewer no access), so the file gets exported to Word and the changes are done in that file, so the updated version can be imported again. When corrections are needed to text size, extra text boxes etc., those are taken care of manually after translation. So far so good, to update just the English version, the process is fine. Now the question is: these changes (language and lay out) need to be implemented in the other languages too. What would be the most efficient, least manual approach? To take into account: we take care of the translations internally. People who translate have no access to Articulate and do not use special translation software or XLIFF files. They look at the changes in the English text to know what needs to be changed in the local language. At this moment, to do so, we provide a translation export of the original version with the required updates marked with track changes in the translation column. Thanks a lot for sharing your experience and knowledge on this topic!
