For my second project created in Storyline, I chose to create a 5-tab interaction.  This inspiration came from the Articulate Community’s E-learning Challenge #2.  I loosely followed the guidelines and tapped into my creativity and medical organization experience.

I wanted to create something beautiful and useful in the healthcare advocacy work that I do.  A medical binder is something that has tremendously helped me as someone with multiple rare disorders.  I wanted to be able to share my knowledge and what has worked for me over the years in a neat, clean, and interactive format.

I created the presentation in Canva and saved it as a PowerPoint file.  I then imported the presentation in its entirety to a new project in Storyline.  I quickly learned that my graphics did not carry over and some of the fonts did not show up properly. 

No problem!  A quick Google search led me to information on how to troubleshoot the issues and make some adjustments.  I also learned several things to avoid or do differently for my next project, to ensure a smoother import.
