Winter Survival
Click here to view the example. This is actually my first E-Learning Challenge! I'm new to using Storyline, so using the challenges for inspiration has helped me learn how to use the platform. For this challenge, I went back to #518 Designing Performance Meters for Learner Feedback. While the design is relatively simple, I learned how to: Create and edit slides and slide layers Create and edit states Create and use variables Create and stack triggers This project in particular helped me gain a better understanding of how triggers stack. After banging my head on the wall for hours, I finally figured out that my “jump to slide X when user clicks Y” trigger was stacked above my “set variable to True when user clicks Y”, meaning that the variable never changed because the trigger above it was fulfilled first and then the slide changed. Such an easy fix for hours of frustration. I’m looking forward to learning more and pushing myself farther in the new year. Any advice the community has for me is greatly appreciated! - Donna Wilson5-Minute Makeovers for E-Learning #532
We updated our menu slides. Originally the buttons just ticked off to show that each section was completed (we used variables at the end of each section that ticked the buttons off on the menu slide). We updated the menu slides to have badges instead that changed from black to coloured badges (using variables at the end of each section that ticked the buttons off on the menu slide). This was to link in with the gamification aspect for staff to collect the badges throughout the course for each section.Leadership 101
The first slide is an example of what gets approved by corporate: Generic clipart, plain text, and no audio. I mean, it looks fine but (yawns and screams internally). 🥱 The next two slides are what I proposed. I used text variables for both the name and character selection and paired them with states. I also used triggers with conditions so the narration would match the characters (male v female). I would have created individual voices for each character but this was only a "5-minute" challenge. 😉 I used all Articulate for this: Characters, photo, and video. Leadership 101The Anti-Snob Coffee Guide
First time creating my own number variable! Woohoo!😁 Thanks to this training Using Number Variables in Storyline, I was able to use a number variable for the coffee calculator. As always, I used Articulate AI and 360 content for videos, art, icons, and TTS. I also used Gemini for a couple of videos. I like these challenges because it gives me a chance to learn new skills, inject some humor🤠, and be creative with visual design. I have to comply with corporate templates and branding guidelines all day, so I enjoy the freedom with these challenges!Victorian Alphabet Project
A Most Curious Diversion: The Victorian Alphabet Dial Though I am tardy in submitting this humble creation, I felt compelled to share my vision nonetheless. Ever enchanted by the elegance and refinement of the Victorian aesthetic, I have embarked upon a whimsical endeavour: an interactive alphabet dial. With a gentle spin, the player shall unveil a letter accompanied by a charming illustration and a verse, each rendered in the ornate style of the age. It is my sincere hope that this modest project shall delight and amuse, and perhaps even transport you—if only for a moment—into a bygone era of beauty and imagination. Enchanted AlphabetCoin Operated
Hey you guys! I Never Say Die when it comes to these demos, and following last week's Merge Shapes challenge, I thought it'd be interesting to work with a dial that has holes in it. There are actually two 'coins' in this Goonies-inspired interaction. It's the same image, initially housed in a slider, then formatted as a dial. This creates an 'on rails' drag-and-drop, that is fully accessible from the keyboard. (Because when you change the underlying variable of a slider or dial, this also changes its position without the learner having to touch it.) But it's certainly more fun to interact with the coin using a mouse or on a touchscreen. Give it a try here.
Productivity Pulse
For this challenge, I designed a quick checkup that will analyze the user's daily work habits and suggest productivity hacks. Based on the user's responses, final results and productivity suggestions are grouped into Starter, Optimize, or Advanced productivity tricks and tips. Hopefully there are some hacks in there that you find helpful if you're like me and can't can't seem to find enough hours in the day to get everything done. Productivity Pulse AssessmentE-learning Alchemy
Thought I'd use a circular menu to create a kind of portfolio. For this, created two dials (in the form of test tube) for the user to pick an e-learning format and a topic to "create" a course. With four formats and four topics, there are sixteen possible portfolio combinations. Launch E-learning AlchemyFuel the launch Game
For this e-learning challenge, I used the performance meter as a rocket fuel gauge. Based on the answers, the rocket will fuel up in order to take off, or not have enough fuel to take off. There are 2 outcomes for this short 5-question game. https://360.articulate.com/review/content/fc27b501-b81a-47b3-b877-271663cf979e/review
