What is Articulate 360?
Articulate 360 is a suite of authoring tools for e-learning content development, including:
- Storyline 360 is an e-learning authoring tool that allows users to create interactive courses with features like branching scenarios in a slide-based format.
- Rise 360 is a web-based tool designed for course development, offering mobile-friendly learning experiences with a template-driven approach for faster creation.
The UBC Faculty of Medicine Education Technology (EdTech) team supports staff and students with migrating material to the Articulate Storyline 360 and Articulate Rise 360 platforms on a case-by-case basis. To start, choose which path your project falls under.
Which path fits your project?
| If your project is… | Choose: |
| Short-term, student-led, or supplemental (e.g. a FLEX project, practice materials, or a one-time interactive resource). | One-off project |
| Part of the official curriculum, high-use, or long-term (e.g. virtual patient cases, core learning modules, scheduled course materials). | Curricular project |
The EdTech team provides support to these two types of projects in differing capacities.
