ARTICULATE RISE
Are you tired of the old-fashioned, traditional way of imparting eLearning? Do you have curriculum that you would like to reintroduce to your learners as bite-sized learning?
​
If your answer to any of these questions is a ‘Yes!’, then what you are looking for is a way to transform your outdated traditional-styled content into cleaner, smaller and more self-contained courses with an encouragement towards small nuggets of learning.
​
At Conscience, we enable microlearning using rapid authoring tools like Rise. Articulate Rise is an amazing web-based authoring interface that provides a fast, lightweight and simple workflow to creating responsive, simple and elegant courseware. It uses an in-built template course creation builder that uses pre-built ‘lessons’ (including video, labeled graphics, timeline, sorting activity, process, URL/embed for animations, PPT and PDFs, and quiz) that enable rapid course authoring. Where the client requirements demand a custom lesson build, our Rise experts create custom ‘lessons’ using flexible learning blocks, namely text, statement, quote, list, image, gallery, multimedia, interactive, and divider.
Why Rise?
Conscience has used Articulate Rise as a tool of choice for rapid authoring on several projects in the past. Our experience and adeptness with the tool reveal several features that this tool offers to make rapid development of responsive learning courseware a quick and simple process.
​
Though a little less interactive than what you may get out of Storyline, what sets Articulate Rise apart is its feature of rapidly creating simple eLearning that is automatically optimized for use across devices. Rise helps us enhance learning content using the content blocks and images that can be rearranged or “stacked” intelligently within the dimensions of the device.
​
In addition to this, Rise, as a rapid courseware authoring application, also offers great development support in terms of:
Ensuring an efficient, responsive and economical built-in lesson menu
Provision to author template-styled, online courses using Rise’ course builder
Option to preview the course constantly during the development for different device sizes
Feature to export course packages as SCORM/xAPI and upload them to an LMS
In fact, in certain courseware that demanded custom interactivities or scenario-based learning, the Courseware team at Conscience has been able to successfully include these through Rise’ in-built provision to build and embed custom interactivity and scenario-based learning built using Storyline within itself. Undoubtedly, this has helped us churn out interactive courses using Rise while countering its limitation of support for interactive content to an extent.
When to use Rise as your preferred choice for your courseware development?
Though Rise is perfect for most learning requirements, Conscience usually recommends courseware authoring in Articulate Rise when the learning requirements demand rapid development of courses within a short span of time with one or more of the following:
Need for bite-sized learning
Compatibility with multiple devices i.e. inherent responsiveness
Little or no requirement for customizations or interactivities
