31 TopicsRise 360: How to Use Snapshots
Want to preserve versions of your training as you create drafts, collaborate with colleagues, and publish courses? The snapshots feature lets you save and restore your work. with just a few clicks. Snapshots are particularly handy when you're working with collaborators. You can capture a moment in your training as it develops and then compare it against collaborator versions or restore back to it as needed. No more having to create a duplicate copy of your training! Snapshots can also come to your rescue when you accidentally delete training elements, apply updates to the wrong training, or just need a manual way to track your versions. Here's how snapshots work. Create a Snapshot Restore a Snapshot Manage the Snapshot List Step 1: Create a Snapshot When you first create a training, your snapshot history is empty. To get started, open the Snapshots menu next to the title in the upper left and click Save snapshot. Enter a name and click Save to create your first snapshot. Whenever Rise 360 detects changes, like adding or removing content, you can create a new snapshot. Just open the Snapshots menu and follow the same process. Are Snapshots Ever Automatically Created? Creating a snapshot of your training is primarily a manual process, but Rise 360 will automatically save a snapshot whenever you publish to Review 360 or Reach 360 or export your training for LMS. These events show up in the snapshot history. Step 2: Restore a Snapshot Need to return to a previous version of your training? Open the Snapshots menu and click the Preview button for the snapshot you'd like to restore. After reviewing the content to confirm it's the version you're looking to restore, click Restore this snapshot in the upper-right corner. You can also restore a snapshot without previewing it by selecting the Restore option from the . . . menu. Step 3: Manage the Snapshot List If your snapshot list starts getting unwieldy, don’t worry. You can rename, restore, or delete snapshots by clicking the . . . menu next to the snapshot you'd like to modify and choosing the appropriate option.2.1KViews18likes0CommentsAI Assistant: Setting the Stage for AI Magic
Before diving into the course creation process, you want your authoring tool to be tailored to your specific requirements so you can focus on developing high-quality content. With features designed to streamline your workflow, AI Assistant allows you to do just that. Available only in Rise 360, AI Assistant’s course outline generation and AI settings features boost your efficiency—setting the stage for AI magic! Get a Head Start Just as a builder uses a blueprint, course authors depend on a well-organized outline to guide learners toward their objectives. AI Assistant’s course outline generation feature jumpstarts your course creation process by instantly generating a course title, description, and full set of lesson titles based on your chosen topic or source material. To get started, click the Create New button on the left of the Rise 360 dashboard, hover on Course, and choose Start with AI. Using custom prompts, guide AI Assistant by describing your topic, target audience, and learning objectives. The more details you provide, the better the suggestions will be. If you have existing source content, upload it for AI Assistant’s reference. Otherwise, you can rely on AI Assistant’s general knowledge. Pro tip: Currently, AI Assistant doesn’t use Bloom’s Taxonomy or other similar frameworks when analyzing what you enter in the learning objectives field. Therefore, you’ll get the best results by entering high-level topics or traditionally formatted learning objectives. For instance, if you enter “Tennis rules” as a high-level objective, AI Assistant generates a generic outline based on that topic. If you want specific outcomes, however, you might enter “Learners will be able to summarize the rules of tennis” to generate more targeted output. AI Assistant will generate a few course title suggestions first—you can pick one from the list or make further changes. Then you can proceed with the outline generation. Refine the outline as needed before applying it. For example, you can edit the number of lessons, change the lesson titles, or reorganize the lesson order. Once you’re happy with the result, click Insert Course Outline. From there, you can use AI Assistant to add content to each lesson by clicking the Add Content button next to the lesson title. When you generate a new block inside a lesson using AI Assistant, you’ll see suggested topics based on your course outline. At any time you want to review your AI-generated course outline, click the View course outline button below the title on the course overview page. This opens the AI settings window to the Course outline tab. You can also click AI Assistant in the top right, select AI settings, and then click the Course outline tab. Here, you can copy the course outline content with just a click. However, this view doesn’t reflect any changes made to the lesson titles after the course outline generation, only the course title updates. Keep Any Documents Handy As a course author, you probably start gathering assets and reference materials right after choosing a topic and writing an outline. While you can now generate content from scratch using AI, you may also want to create courses based on existing documents. You can import source documents to use as a reference whenever you want to generate new content using AI Assistant. But instead of uploading reference materials each time, you can keep them all in one place by uploading them in the Source content tab of the AI settings window before you start. Access AI settings from the AI Assistant dropdown menu in the upper right. Drag and drop files into the Source content tab or click Choose file to upload them. Supported files include PDF, DOC/DOCX, PPT/PPTX, and TXT/TEXT of 100 MB or less that contain up to 200,000 characters. Note that AI Assistant only references extractable text in your source document, skipping images, audio, video, and content found in the Notes section of a PowerPoint file. Pro tip: To use an existing Rise 360 course as source content, export the course to PDF, then upload the resulting file. For Storyline 360, publish the course as a Word document. While there’s no hard limit on how many files you can upload to use as source content for AI Assistant, we recommend uploading only what you need for faster processing. If you don’t have entire files as reference, you can also copy and paste content from the source into the text box provided.2.7KViews10likes0CommentsAI Assistant: Using Magic Text Import to Transform Existing Content
Turning content from a separate document into an interactive block used to require copying and pasting paragraph by paragraph. Now, with AI Assistant, you can simply copy and paste your content into the Magic Text Import dialog box. Your content is automatically arranged into a process block, accordion, or tabs interaction—while your original wording stays intact. Available only in Rise 360, magic text import can be accessed from the AI Assistant menu in the upper right or from the AI Blocks menu within the block library. Please note that importing media such as images, audio, and video is currently unavailable as we continue to improve this AI Assistant feature. While magic text import can save you a ton of time, you’ll get the best results if you follow some simple conventions when formatting your source document. Read on to see examples of some formatting Do’s and Don’ts. Process Blocks To get a process block complete with an intro, steps, and a summary, organize your source content by paragraphs with headings. The table below shows the formatting that gives the best results. Do: Use Paragraphs with Heading Labels Intro: Cake Baking Process Baking a cake is a delightful and rewarding experience that combines creativity with culinary skills. Whether for a special occasion or just a treat for yourself, following the right steps ensures a delicious outcome. Step 1: Gather Ingredients Start by gathering all necessary ingredients: flour, sugar, eggs, butter, baking powder, and vanilla extract. Make sure to measure them accurately for the best results. Step 2: Mix the Batter In a mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Gradually incorporate the flour and baking powder, followed by the vanilla extract, until the batter is smooth. Step 3: Bake the Cake Pour mixed batter into a greased pan and place into a preheated oven. The cake is done when a toothpick inserted in the cake comes out clean. Summary: Enjoy Your Delicious Treat In conclusion, baking a cake involves gathering ingredients, mixing them properly, and following a systematic approach. With practice, anyone can master the art of cake baking and enjoy the delicious results. Some formatting conventions tend to produce unexpected or less satisfactory results and should be avoided. For example, skipping paragraph breaks—as shown in the table below—may result in a process block with empty steps or an incorrect summary. Don’t: Skip Paragraph Breaks Intro: Cake Baking Process- Baking a cake is a delightful and rewarding experience that combines creativity with culinary skills. Whether for a special occasion or just a treat for yourself, following the right steps ensures a delicious outcome. Labeling paragraphs with markers like “description”—as the table below demonstrates—may result in repetition within your process block. Don’t: Label Paragraphs Intro: Cake Baking Process Description: Baking a cake is a delightful and rewarding experience that combines creativity with culinary skills. Whether for a special occasion or just a treat for yourself, following the right steps ensures a delicious outcome. Finally, using list numbers or bullets in your process steps—as the below example shows—may cause AI Assistant to make every item a process step, with no introduction or summary. Don’t: Use Bullets or Numbers Gather Ingredients: Flour Sugar Eggs Butter Baking powder Vanilla extract Make sure to measure them accurately for the best results. Accordion and Tabs Interactions For accordion and tabs blocks, AI Assistant turns headings into titles and the corresponding paragraphs into related content. Organize your source content by paragraphs with headings for best results. If you don’t provide a heading, AI Assistant will generate titles based on the content. However, if you skip the headings and format the paragraphs as a bullet or numbered list, the content may not import correctly. The below table offers a side-by-side comparison of formatting Do’s and Don’ts for the best results when using magic text import to create accordion and tabs interactions. Do: Use Paragraphs Headings Don’t: Skip headings and format the paragraphs as a bullet or numbered list Various Breeds of Cats Various breeds of cats have distinct characteristics and traits. From the sleek Siamese to the fluffy Maine Coon, they come in a wide range of sizes, colors, and temperaments. Known for their agility and hunting skills, cats often display playful antics. Their ability to purr and knead with their paws adds to their charm, creating a soothing presence that many find comforting. Physical Attributes and Behaviors Cats exhibit a variety of behaviors that reflect their unique personalities. The energetic Bengal enjoys interactive play, while the laid-back Ragdoll prefers lounging and being pampered. Understanding these traits can help potential cat owners choose a breed that aligns with their lifestyle. Bond Between Cats and Humans The bond between cats and humans can be incredibly rewarding. Many cat owners find joy in the companionship their feline friends provide. Cats sense their owner's emotions and often offer comfort during stressful times, further enhanced by playful interactions and affectionate behaviors, making them beloved members of many households. 1.

There are almost as many ways to say “Hello” as there are ways to make Rise 360 content. That’s why we make it easy to export your content to an XLIFF file for localization into left-to-right languages and scripts with double-byte character sets. Step 1: Duplicate Your Content The first step is to duplicate the content you want to translate. The duplicate you create will become the translated version. Translating into more than one language? You can make a copy for each one or try out the alternate method below. Step 2: Export the Content as an XLIFF File Open the duplicate content you created in the previous step. Click Settings in the upper right corner and go to the Translations tab. If you don’t need to preserve formatting you’ve applied to your text, deselect Include HTML formatting. This exports your content in easy to translate blocks of text. However, it doesn’t contain the coding necessary to maintain any formatting you’ve applied to that content. To change the source language for your course enter the language code in the field. As you type, a list of available language codes appears. The default is U.S. English (en-us). Click Export XLIFF File and save the file to your computer. Then use a web app, computer program, or professional translation service to edit your XLIFF file. If Include HTML formatting is selected above, you'll see additional HTML tags and extra spaces in your XLIFF file. Don't panic! These are there to preserve your formatting when you import your translated file in Step 3. Tip: Rise 360 uses XLIFF version 1.2. Step 3: Import Translated Text Got your newly-translated file? Great! Open your duplicate content again. Click Settings in the upper right corner, go to the Translations tab, and click Import Translated Text. Select your translated XLIFF file and click Open. A message displays when yourtext is successfully imported. Why am I seeing an error? If you see an error message that says the “Translation file doesn’t match this course,” make sure you’re in the content from which you originally exported your XLIFF file. The XLIFF file is content-specific, so it can't be exported from one deliverable and imported into another. If you see a different error, the XLIFF file may be incomplete or corrupt. Download a fresh copy of the file and try again. If downloading a fresh copy doesn't work, make surethere aren't any blank section or lesson titles in your course. All section and lesson titles have to have content. Where did my formatting go? If you deselected Include HTML formatting in step 2, any formatting you applied to your content prior to importing the translated file is not retained. And let us know if you have any questions. We’re happy to help! Step 4: Translate Your Labels Don’t forget to translate your buttons and other built-in navigational elements. Click Settings in the upper right corner and go to the Labels tab. For more information on how to translate labels, click here. Translate Training into Multiple Languages Need to translate your training into more than one language? One method is to make multiple copies of the course, then translate those copies. But we like this alternate method since you don't have to keep track of which XLIFF file goes with which training copy. Export your XLIFF file as described in Step 2 above and then duplicate the training so you have a copy in the original language. Translate your XLIFF file into all the languages you need. Import one of the translated XLIFF files to the original training. Duplicate your translated training to have a separate copy. Repeat steps 3 and 4 for all additional translations. Voila! We find it's quicker and easier to just "overwrite" your original file and make copies. We think you will too!5.7KViews4likes0CommentsRise 360: Get Started with AI Assistant

Blank page problem? Not when you have AI Assistant! You don’t need to start from scratch because you can now easily generate, edit, and convert blocks in seconds. Our human-centered AI block generation process works with you to draft your content, ensuring that you stay in control every step of the way. Available only in Rise 360, AI Assistant’s block generation, block editing, and quick block conversion features can be accessed in multiple ways. Find them in the AI Assistant menu in the upper right, the block formatting menu on the left when you hover over a block, the shortcuts bar at the bottom, and within the block library. Are you ready to get started? Here are some tips for using these block generation features to enhance your course creation process. Create New Blocks from Scratch Refine Existing Blocks Convert Existing Blocks to Another Type Create New Blocks from Scratch Spend less time putting your thoughts into words—just pick a block to generate. Enter a topic, select reference materials, and let AI Assistant draft the content. Use custom prompts to guide AI Assistant in revising and polishing your draft. When you’re happy with the final copy, click Insert block and see your new block appear. It couldn't be easier! Use Source Content and Specify a Topic You can upload source documents in AI settings or when creating a new block and select them as a reference. AI Assistant uses the content in those documents whenever you generate new content. If you don’t have full files to upload, you can copy and paste content from external sources. The topic you specify guides AI Assistant in narrowing down the content from your source documents. This is especially useful when you have multiple source documents. If you specify a topic that isn't in your selected reference material—existing lessons or source documents—AI Assistant can also generate content using general knowledge. For best results when specifying a topic, try asking AI Assistant to: Focus on a particular subject within the source material. For example, you could say, “Focus on strawberries” when working with a source document about fruit. Focus on a specific section. For instance, “Focus on chapter two” ” when working with a source document with multiple chapters. Write in a particular order using specific source documents. For example, “Write an overview of all my source docs, write an introduction about fruit, write a conclusion about fruit.” AI Assistant also generates relevant topic suggestions when you select source documents. These are displayed above the prompt input box as quick-action buttons. Outline Your Content When creating a list or interactive block, AI Assistant generates an outline before drafting the content. For a sorting activity block, AI Assistant brainstorms the categories after you choose the topic and select the block type. You can then click one from the list or enter one of your own. This particular step gives you a bird’s-eye view of the main topics covered in your block, letting you arrange the main content and structure of your block. Focus on big-picture items like what topics to cover, what order the content will appear in, and how content will be separated into different sections of the block. Polish Your Draft In the final step of the block generation process, AI Assistant shares a full block draft. Now you get to collaborate with AI Assistant to finalize the copy for your block. You can task AI Assistant with doing just about anything here—changing the tone, target audience, format, or topics. Or, get creative! Try asking AI Assistant to: Add scenarios or examples Add pros and cons Add key takeaways Simplify or paraphrase Add more or less text Bold key terms Add emojis Add bulleted lists Note that AI Assistant doesn't support generating media such as images, audio, and video within generated blocks. While AI Assistant is designed to adhere to your topic and source materials, always check for accuracy. AI can't read your mind! It follows instructions but can struggle with context or knowledge gaps and may generate incorrect information. Before clicking Insert block, double-check the output. And if you’ve already inserted the block but want to make changes, use the write and edit inline or block editing features. Refine Existing Blocks In addition to generating new content, AI Assistant makes editing existing content easier than ever with its block editing feature. Use custom prompts to set the tone as more casual or professional, or target a specific audience by simplifying the language or adding technical terms. You can also shorten or lengthen content, or even completely change the topic. Since editing a block allows you to interact with AI Assistant using custom prompts, experiment and have fun! Remember, though, that AI Assistant rejects malicious requests and automatically blocks offensive content. After refining your content, choose to replace the original or insert the modified block below it to compare changes. Convert Existing Blocks to Another Type Want to see how your content would look in a different block? That used to mean tedious copy-pasting from one block into another. But with AI Assistant’s quick block conversion feature, you can convert an existing block into a different type in a flash. Turn a static list block into an interactive flashcard in just two clicks, or condense interactive blocks into a statement or a paragraph block. When converting blocks, AI Assistant retains as much of the original content as possible. AI Assistant maps the content between the two block types to retain content and generates new content only when necessary. In the case of blocks with a different structure, such as a paragraph block and a process block, AI Assistant treats the original block as the source to generate content for the new block. Note that AI Assistant can only generate, edit, and convert content for the following block types: Accordion Flashcard List Text Process Sorting Statement Tabs Video Tutorials Want to learn more before getting started?
