The Software
This series of explainers uses Articulate Storyline, one of the most popular elearning content creation tools. It’s part of a suite of programs called ‘Articulate 360’ which also includes RISE (a tool for rapid content creation) and the online review and commenting platform Review 360.
You can download a free 30 day demo of Articulate Storyline from Articulate’s website. This gives you access to a fully-functioning copy of Storyline (though with a reduced asset library of characters, photos and icons).
Over the course of these eight explainers we’re using Storyline to create a simple elearning package including buttons, video and 3d object interactions, before going on to add quiz questions and a results slide and exporting the package for use on the web.
The finished product
This is how our final Storyline project looks at the end of this explainer series. Welcome to an introduction to Immersive Technologies!
Note the version created in the explainers also includes a menu students can navigate. This is switched off in the version above. All embedded videos / animations were tested as working when this page was last updated.
The pre-requisities
This is a BEGINNER to INTERMEDIATE workflow explainer series. Ideally you’ll already be familiar with simple text and image editing.
If you’re new to IT / computing, you may need help downloading and installing the software. Start with a search for ‘how do i install Storyline’ or speak with someone familiar with downloading and installing.
Why would I do this?
Whether for fun or for users to demonstrate their competence, quizzes are often included in elearning packages. Storyline includes templates for common question-types as well as easy-to-use results slides. Popular question types (including multi-choice and multi-select) are automatically marked so including a results slide means your users receive immediate feedback. Quiz results can then be passed to an LMS (Learning Management System) though this is not a requirement.

Good to know
Be sure to explore the various question types before building a final quiz. This will help make it relevant and interesting for your audience!
Where to next?
We’ve included a multi-choice question and a multi-select question to demonstrate quiz slides, and there are plenty of additional question types available. Here’s one of our favourites…
DRAG and DROP answers
Start by creating a ‘new slide’, ‘graded question’ as for the question types in the explainer. Select the ‘Sequence – DRAG and DROP’ question type. Enter the question text and available answers. Here’s one we tried earlier…
