Learning Journal In Rise

You are right, this is one reflection block of perhaps three or four reflections I ask the learners to complete throughout the entire RISE course.  So they do print each set of reflections separately.  I do have a storyline module somewhere, which I think many have done, where I have several note sections throughout the module, and then one print option at the end of the module to grab all of the notes.  

Thanks for the comments re: the javascript, I just kept googling until I got it to do what I wanted LOL!

Hi Teresa - I love your demo. I like the way you retrieve the variables, and construct a page view of the notes to Print or Download. Pretty impressive HTML and Javascript coding I would say.

Forgive me if I'm missing something, but I'm presuming this works just at one point in the RISE course? Or are you storing the three TextEntry variables somewhere?

This is the difficulty. Often you want to capture notes at different points in the RISE course but hold them all to the end of the course when the Learning Journal is printed, Hence Mike's use of local browser storage in his solution.

There is another option I haven't tried, but I'm sure others have, and that would be to write the variables out to an external file - like a Googledocs file - and then retrieve them from that file when you need them - or even output them to the LRS via an XAPi call and retrieve them from the LRS.... Anyone know if that is possible??

I am not sure if I ever shared this.  But I use Storyline blocks in RISE as well with some javascript code for the learner to print their notes. If this helps anyone here is an example.  I don't know javascript, I just taught myself via google how to do bullets and quotes.

We have taken a slightly different approach to this problem, choosing to incorporate 'note-taking' Storyline blocks at various points throughout our RISE courses. The Storyline blocks capture the learner 'notes' and, like Mike's excellent solution, we store them in the browser's local storage.

At the end of the course we have a final Storyline block that provides a button executing a JavaScript routine to retrieve the notes from local storage, open a pre-formatted pdf form and insert the notes into this 'journal' or 'course handout'. The learner is then presented with the file for download.

This works well but, of course, since the variables are stored in 'local storage' the learner will lose their output if they pause the course and clear the browser cache, or try and resume using a different browser, or a different device.

Like Becca, we would also LOVE Articulate to provide just a small amount of storage we could access on the RISE server so we could store variables there.

This is the exact type of interaction I have been looking for in Rise! Is it still relevant/doable? I tried the other day and couldn't get it to work. I would LOVE Articulate to make this an interactive block option.

What are you seeing instead? Can you show us?

Hi, Mike,

I have been using the script to email a Learning Journal in a Rise course. Could you help getting the email address populated into the "TO" field in the message that pops open in the email client (after selecting the Email Learning Journal button)? 

I would use either an Interactive or Multimedia (embedded) block option.

This is a great help! Thanks!

Does anyone know if it is possible to replace a text box answer with a table that users would fill in? Thanks
