I created this demo for the Articulate E-Learning Heroes Challenge: Using Tabs Interactions in E-Learning (2023) #401. I was inspired by a recent trip I took to Monkey Island near Panama City, Panama. The demo features seven monkey-themed tabs that display information about the seven types of monkey that are native to Panama. I created a lush, jungle-like background using several layers of images. The title page has subtle sounds of the jungle background music.

I created this sample for the Articulate E-Learning Heroes Weekly E-Learning Challenge: Using Subtle Background Patterns & Textures in E-Learning #402.

A rescue of an orchid plant from my neighbor’s trash inspired this demo. I used two types of background patterns in this demo. On the title slide, I used a video as a background. My intention was to create a glassmorphism effect but I couldn’t make it happen in Storyline. I wanted it to overlay the video.

On the interaction slide, I used a background pattern I created in Photoshop. I took an image of an orchid and applied the path-blur effect from the blur gallery.

Games can be an effective way to help learners learn vocabulary (memory), practice a process (skill) or just have fun (chance). Think about your favorite game (e.g., Scrabble, Clue, God of War, Mindcraft). Into which class of games does it fit and why do you love playing it?

1) Games of Chance
