If you haven’t heard, Articulate360 is out and with it the new Storyline360- SL360. Storyline2-SL2 gave us Sliders for great interactions and SL360 bring Dials! Dials allow for many interaction design concepts where we can have users turning dials or knobs between zero to 180 and 360 degrees. However, just as we were able to […]
Mass shootings are a sad reality of our times and can happen to anyone, anywhere. Recently, active shooter courses have become a staple of compliance training for many companies. Last year, I designed an active shooter elearning course which was my submission for LSDemoFest at LSCON16. Even though it was not a winner, the feedback given […]

The slider is a powerful interaction because you can give the learner real-time outcomes based on the position (step) he or she drags the slider button to. Although you can simulate slider interactions in other authoring tools (usually installing external widgets), nothing compares to the ease-of-use […]
Elearning Heroes Challenge #71 was all about teaching math concepts with elearning. My submission was a military-inspired game where learners solve math problems and blow stuff up. Nothing wrong with “safe” mortar training and engaging learners by testing basic math skills. For this sample I used a combination of vector drawings built with Adobe Illustrator […]
One of the great features available in Articulate Storyline2 (SL2) are the Slider Controls. So, for the Elearning Heroes Challenge #70 which involved creating a Valentine’s themed elearning interaction.
