How can I train my stakeholders on reviewing Rise courses correctly?
When some of my stakeholders leave comments on the review section in a Rise course, several reviews often appear in the same block. This causes total confusion for me and an ID. Can anyone point me to a resource on how to correctly review Rise blocks?I only want one video to play at a time.
I am working with Storyline 360 and have four videos embedded on one slide. The problem is that when one video is playing and the learner clicks another, the first video keeps playing in the background. I want only one video to play at a time. What triggers or variables should I use so that any video currently playing automatically pauses when the learner selects another video? I have added the slide I am asking help with. Thank you! :)Articulate + Thinkific: what does your workflow look like?
Do you create with Articulate and publish through Thinkific? I’d love to hear what that workflow looks like for you. What are you creating in Articulate, and how does Thinkific fit into how you deliver it to your learners? Plus, if you have any tips or things you wish you’d known when getting started, I’m sure others would love to hear those, too!An eLearning Course May Be Teaching More Than You Intended
After many years in instructional design and eLearning, I’ve come to question something we often take for granted about learning. We tend to think of it in simple terms: The learner learned it. The learner didn’t. The course worked. The course failed. But I don’t think learning works that way. People always learn something. The more important question is: What are they learning? Consider a poorly designed eLearning course. An employee attends a course because they genuinely want to learn. But the content is difficult to follow, the activities feel disconnected, and the experience becomes frustrating. The course doesn’t help with the problems they actually face at work. We might conclude that the learner simply didn’t get much out of it. But they may have learned something very different from what we intended: “I could have spent this time getting my work done.” Or “eLearning is a waste of time.” That is still learning. It’s just not the learning outcome we intended. And if that happens repeatedly, something else happens. We spend a great deal of effort trying to motivate learners, get them interested, and hook them into the learning experience. But several poor learning experiences can work in the opposite direction. Learners may become more guarded and less receptive, even when they are later required to learn. There is an interesting example in Taiwan. The government has invested heavily in eLearning for public servants, offering a large number of courses across different topics and allowing employees to choose based on their needs and interests. There are many good courses among them, but the quality is mixed. In 2018, a proposal was submitted on Taiwan’s Public Policy Participation Platform calling for the abolition of the eLearning program for public servants. One of the complaints was that requiring 20 to 40 hours of eLearning each year was a waste of time with little effect. The proposal received nearly 8,000 endorsements in just three days. What interests me is not whether the program was good or bad. It’s this: If people repeatedly experience learning that feels ineffective, what are they learning about learning itself? Maybe: “This isn’t worth my time.” And that may be a bigger problem than one ineffective course. A poor course doesn’t simply fail to teach what we intended. It may teach learners to distrust the learning experience itself. So perhaps we need to ask a different question when we talk about learning effectiveness: Not just, “Did they learn what we wanted them to learn?” But: “What else did they learn from the experience?”Personalizing goodbye.html
Hello, At the end of exported trainings, a goodbye.html file is displayed. We modified it to fit our brand chart in a file out of the program folder because we don't have admin rights and asked a sysadmin to make a symbolic link in place of the original file, and were having no problems with it until latest update. In the latest update, at the 1st launch of the day, an automatic file check puts a new goodbye.html in the program folder and it replaces ours in the SCORM exports :( It would be cool to have a setting somewhere where we could choose our own goodbye.html file, because now we have to replace original file by ours each day, requiring admin rights. Edit : nope we can't do that as SCORM exports freeze at the end now, so only solution for now is replacing the goodbye file in each export :( Regards, Michael.Double/nested heading tags in Rise
In a few recent Rise builds (created between June and August 2026) we've encountered headings established through Heading, Subheading, Paragraph and heading, and Paragraph and subheading blocks that have two heading tags, one nested within the other. E.g., <h3><div><div><h2><span>heading text</span></h2></div></div></h3> (see also attached screenshot). We have not been able to diagnose why this is occurring and haven't been able to purposefully replicate it yet, beyond copying an "infected" heading and pasting it elsewhere, which spreads the issue. It only seems to involve <h2> and <h3> tags. So far, we've seen <h2><h2></h2></2>, <h3><h2></h2></h3>, and <h2><h3></h3></h2>. I don't recall encountering <h3><h3></h3></h3> or any other heading levels. We've been able to remedy the issue by just recreating those blocks from scratch or using paragraph blocks in which we manually assign headings. Sharing just to see if anyone else is encountering this..?
