Description
Once you’ve mastered all the basics in Articulate Storyline 360 (slides, media, states, layers, triggers, and quizzes), it’s time to take your skills--and your courses--to the next level. You can do that with variables. But mastering variables can be elusive for many. What can variables do? How do you know if you need them? How do you set them up properly?
In this course, you’ll have a chance learn just how powerful (and not so intimidating) variables can be. You’ll learn when to use text variables, number variables, and true/false variables with real-world examples such as personalizing a scenario, adding badges and points, as well as customizing content and navigation.
You'll walk step by step through nine examples (three of each type of variable) moving from simple to complex. Throughout these activities, you'll learn how to enhance your e-learning course with personalization, gamification, conditional logic, dynamic content, and more!
The course takes 6 to 9 hours to complete, which includes watching the 3.5 hours of video demonstrations and completing the practice activities yourself.
