ELH#169 – Scrolling Panels in E-Learning and Calorie Counting

For this week’s E-Learning Heroes Challenge, the goal was to look at how scrolling panels can be used in e-learning. I have frequently used scrolling panels when I wanted to make more text fit onto a screen, particularly when I have an English course that has been translated into French. (French text typically takes up about 25% more space on the page.)

There was really neat video tip shared that I am sure I will use in the future to position create animated labels.  While looking at the video, I came across another video on scrolling photo strips. This inspired me to try to do a drag and drop interaction with the drag items in a scrolling panel.

I have used horizontal photo strips before in interactions,  but haven’t used a scrolling panel to accomplish it. I will probably try to reproduce my Image Slider using a scrolling panel, as I think that it will result in a cleaner product.

For now, check out my breakfast food calorie counting interaction. Please leave your comments and suggestions for improvement below.

  1. Can you explain in detail how you assured that the drag and drop interaction works within the scrolling panel?

      1. Oh I tested it in Storyline 360 and it looks like the scroling panel works differently now….
        In Storyline 2 it works.
