Hi, everyone! Today I’m doing something a little wild and crazy—I’m participating in my first challenge here in the community! I’ve been an instructional designer for 9 years, using Articulate Storyline for almost 3 years and have spent many hours in the E-Learning Heroes Community, usually as reader/stalker. But today, I decided to throw my stalkerish ways to out the window to have a little fun with everyone.

When I thought about back to school, my thoughts immediately went to the subjects of math and science. More specifically, I thought of flash cards and math problems as students try to refine their rusty math skills after a long break. My concept addresses this type of skill practice in a fun, engaging way by inviting the student to Save the Mission. The student is present with a challenge and through each correct response, moves one step closer to a successful rocket launch. I built it with only two practice problems, but it can easily be adapted to add more. Check it out for yourself and see if you can save the day using your stellar math skills (the math is easy, I promise!).
I also want to throw a big thank you out to David and Montse for organizing and bringing together the Phoenix Articulate Users Group (which is super fun for those of you PHX locals!) and for encouraging me to participate in the challenge!

Great job, Toni! ...and welcome to the challenges! I really enjoyed this and you did a fine job with the rocket launching animation. One thing I noticed is that, although your module displayed perfectly in Internet Explorer, when I viewed it in Chrome I had to scroll up and down to view the whole image. (It could be my settings, though...!) I look forward to see more of your work in future challenges! :)
