Powerful Positioning with AI
Built as a high energy portfolio concept, this project is an interactive Storyline experience that helps learners practice “Power Positioning” through short scenarios, branching choices, and coaching style feedback inside the module. Behind the scenes, I approached it like a real client build: clarified the performance need and audience, mapped the learner flow, drafted a lightweight storyboard, prototyped quickly, then iterated based on usability checks to keep the experience fast, clear, and visually consistent. What makes it stand out is the AI integration. The experience uses a ChatGPT API to analyze the learner’s typed response, generate custom strengths and next steps, and provide a 1 to 10 score, giving learners targeted coaching they can immediately apply on the job. A Sample Responses Key is available here.Morph Reveal (AKA the Pull My Finger Storyline Project)
My first Storyline project using morph transitions! I wanted to create an asset that would gradually reveal a financial report, allowing learners to explore it via clickable markers. With each click, the report would reveal more columns, almost like pulling a window blind sideways. Normally, I would use the timeline and state changes (maybe good old-fashioned layers) to achieve what I wanted here, but I decided to step out of my comfort zone with morph transitions. It was... different. It was very persnickety. Sometimes I had to group objects to make it work; sometimes I had to leave them ungrouped. Sometimes I had to make sure that there was no text involved in the object's non-normal state. For instance, I couldn't create a hover state on a hand that included additional text that says "Click here to reveal." The animation got all wonky with that. After many hours and curse words, I finally tamed the beast. So here it is, with all our financial data redacted so I don't get fired. If anyone has some best practices for using morph, I'm all ears and eyes! Zdaily Report Tour (Redacted)Color Blindness Accessibility Template
Don't leave your learners behind if they can't recognize certain colors like their peers! This Storyline template will automatically change the colors of your placed objects based on the Color Mode setting you pick in the top menu: select from Protanopia (Red/Green), Deuteranopia (Red/Green) or Tritanopia (Blue/Yellow). As a bonus, you can also select Dark Mode without needing to configure your computer's or smartphone's operating system! Download the Storyline 360 template and try it for yourself - see the attachment: Video of the tamplate in action: https://youtu.be/cUOeZKWqRkE?si=uYLd0vYu7xgkJuhz Special Thanks: Ashley Chiasson for the Menu Functionality https://youtu.be/iUW_Md1YXWA?si=beSTbdyj5II_I0yMA4 exercise sheet builder
(Disclaimer : I am french, so please be lenient with my english writing :) ) For teachers, building exercise sheets is a common task ! But to follow a graphic layout can takes more time and add complexity. As a graphic designer, part of my job is to find ways to improve this ! My latest challenge was to create a tool to help teachers building printed exercise sheets, without to have to deal with complex layout. My solution is this storyline project : a simple exercise sheet builder, in which the teacher just need to complete the text part (instructions and responses). It's limited, as you can only add up to 4 exercices and only have the choice between 3 exercises types and 3 responses possibilities, but I think this is a good start ! Feel free to try it, even use it in class or other ! Demo : Create your exercise sheet File : Storyline file Next step would be to add more exercise types and improving the accessibility ! Let me know you toughts or questions about this, it would be a pleasure to discuss with you :) Merci ! * Mélanie MathéWorkplace Violence and Harassment – Game-Based Scenario
One of our recent projects involved developed a game-based scenario learning experience focused on Workplace Violence and Harassment, which significantly improved learner awareness and decision-making. What we built: A scenario-driven course with 1–4 progressive levels Each level presents realistic workplace situations that require learner judgment Learners complete a knowledge check or quiz at the end of each level Successful completion unlocks a badge, reinforcing motivation and progression Why this project matters: Rather than relying on a traditional, click-through compliance approach, we designed this eLearning course to help learners practice real-world decision-making in a safe environment, supporting better recognition, prevention and response to workplace violence and harassment. Behind the scenes: Branching scenarios were designed to encourage reflection, not just right-or-wrong answers Feedback carefully crafted to explain why a response is appropriate Game mechanics were applied thoughtfully to maintain the seriousness of the topic What this project reinforced for us: When designed with intent, gamification can enhance engagement and retention, even for sensitive compliance topics. Tools used: Articulate Storyline 360 for course development Vyond for video creation Learning outcome: Participants will be able to identify, prevent and appropriately respond to workplace violence and harassment situations through practical, scenario-based decision-making.

Hello everyone! I'm excited to share my very first sample with you all! I've been experimenting with hotspots on StoryLine and created a fun game to provide a nice break from our usual learning. You can check it out through this sample link: https://360.articulate.com/review/content/07673a40-b615-4fe3-b65d-4f75ef3691ad/review I'd love to hear your thoughts on it! Also, if anyone can assist me in adding a sound effect for each click, I would greatly appreciate it.Work in Progress: "Mission: Clean Zone"
LINK=> https://www.parcooroo.com/4he8k8he Inspired by AsbjornReinhold's post: Video game seen from above (thank you), I created a serious game designed to make learning sterile laboratory protocols (such as dressing and hand washing) interactive and fun. I need your opinion! I'm looking for ideas to develop new levels. What other safety protocols or scenarios would be interesting to gamify ? Suggestions are welcome in the comments 😁Video Game Top-Down with Arrow Key controls
Introduction and features If you have ever wanted to create a world that your users can explore, but haven't known how to do it, then this project can help you get out there and get after it. View introduction in video format here: Video on LinkedIn A full course using multiple characters, multiple boards, side-scrolling animations when moving from board to board, are already being enjoyed by thousands in a professional setting in one of the biggest companies in the world. With this type of course, you have have the user walk around and size of world, gather items, solve tasks and anything you can think of. Review the project here: Review360 You control the Avatar with the Arrow Keys on the keyboard and she can only walk on the paths set by you. That means, she can't walk through walls! You can warp to Task slides or to another Board slide using the Intersect trigger. Download the Project at the bottom of this post. How the character moves The character is a PNG picture that is exactly 200x200 in size. The trick to movement is to also have the Motion Paths be 200px in length and have them set to Relative Start Point. I have chosen an animation time of 0.25 seconds. There are 5 states, the Normal state is the character in the Idle Position. The other 4 states are self-explanatory. Lastly, two triggers are created (NUM 2 appears when you hit Arrow Down on your keyboard). Your character now moves around the Canvas. How the character was created The character was created using AI using the following prompt: I'm creating a game and need a picture of a character. The game has an isometric view and I need the following 4 poses in the same picture with transparent background: 1 Front view where she has an idle pose and standing still. 2 Front view where she is walking towards the camera. 3 Back view where she is walking away from the camera. 4 Left view where she is walking with arms swinging very little. Comically small body. Very large head. Female. 3D style. High resolution. Office clothes. Short hair. Glasses. Transparent background. Disney style. That gave me this character in the poses I asked for. I use this large character for all slides except for the board. On the board, I took the picture into Photoshop and shrunk the body into something even smaller. How the board was made The board was made using PowerPoint and AI. I drew the outline of the board in PowerPoint using square shapes. I guess you could do this in Storyline as well! Then I found random pictures of inventory on google and copy-pasted them into various positions. Then I uploaded the picture into the Copilot AI - any image generation AI will work and used the following prompt: Can you create an exact replica of this image, but make it beautiful 3d top-down style. Make the colors pleasant and give it a disney vibe so that the scene feels warm and welcoming. Keep the layout the same. How to prevent the character from walking through walls This is the part that requires you to click the most with your mouse. First you create a grid of 200x200px square shapes. They only need to cover the areas the character will be walking on. They need to be touching each other and Shape Outline must be turned off - or it won't work. You then type in a unique identifier in each square shape. I just used the numbers from 1-27. I also renamed all the shapes "Square 1" "Square 2" "Square 3" etc. Next you create a new Number variable. The default value should be the square your character will be starting on. In my case, 1. You then create a bunch of triggers that changes the location variable upon intersecting with the character. You can now track exactly where on the board your character is located. This is key to controlling where it can not move. Lastly, you create the following trigger for all four arrow keys. The numbers will be different for you. But basically you look at Square 1 and visualize if the character should be able to move downwards from this location. If it shouldn't be able to, then you don't add the number to the list. If it should be able to, then you add the number.

This project was developed to train leaders in giving feedback while maintaining employee engagement. We used a simulation-based approach for feedback meetings. Check the demonstration below. Instead of prioritizing content, we focused on storytelling supported by game mechanics with branched scenarios. To enhance realism, we simulated extreme situations like disagreements and interruptions, requiring students to be flexible and detail-oriented. At the end, rather than completing a linear course, students will have tested their decisions and learned from successes and mistakes in a safe digital environment, where they can repeat the experience and make different choices while comparing the consequences of each action.
