Text entry blank in Rise
I'm developing some material and the project owner has asked about the feasibility of allowing end users to input text which could be reported back to our LMS. We'd then view the entered text and use the information to direct future training efforts. I had to tell the owner this isn't possible now but that I'd ask if something like this was forthcoming. Are there any plans for adding text entry as a block/interaction/quiz option?
Thanks, Kershia. You made a good point about not allowing access to external sites, so I'll pass that along to our team as well.
Hi, +1 for an open ended/free text question. Also another thing that would be good but maybe a bit more technical would be to have an audio recorded answer so when our students what to add a free text answer they could record there response. I see this feature is available the other way around, me or the Lecturer can record audio and build it in for the viewer/student to listen to.
Thanks, Tilt for adding your voice! That really helps our team as they prioritize features and new ideas for Rise.
For the recorded response, are you imagining that they'd record directly in Rise? How would that recording be passed to an LMS for you to listen to it? Do you know of any examples that I could share with the team? If you'd prefer you can also send them more detail through a feature request!
Has there been any movement as far as adding this feature? Based on this thread, there is a clear demand. I think that Rise is a great product and I would like to promote it throughout my organization, but the lack of flexibility with things like this and font coloring/sizing are frustrating my customers and making it difficult for me to gain buy-in at the leadership level.
+1 to this feature having a huge impact on course building. Is it on the product map at all? Knowing that it might be coming by end-of-year or in 6-months would be greatly appreciated.
Agreed. If I could tell my customers "I expect this functionality to be available Q1 2019", they'd be more understanding than if I tell them "We'll I've let the vendor know this is something you'd like."
Hi Justin and Laura,
I'll keep you posted here as soon as we have more information on if this feature will be released to Rise. We don't have a roadmap, but our team does update the “What’s New” page with upcoming popular features and changes, so that's another place to learn more about additions before they come out in Rise.
Thanks for adding your voice, as that does help us understand what features are critical for authors and ensures we're building tools that fit your needs and that you love.
YES! +1 on this. I am in need of this for my course.
+1 on this. Would be useful for the learner to capture notes as they take the course.
+1 on what Kershia said.
+1 on this. I totally agree with Joe and everyone else on this thread.
