I really appreciate this content, Devlin. I still haven’t begun my own learning/ training journey towards becoming an Instructional Designer, primarily because I don’t yet have the funds to take any courses and I’m just now looking for an entry level job to hold me over until I attain my career goal. Every time I watch one of your videos or receive your insightful emails, I am more excited to get started. I really hope to be enrolled in the boot camp before the end of this year! Thanks for all of the amazing content that you and your team produce and share for free!

[@DevlinPeckYT]

That's great to hear! And that's what the free resources are for :D Thanks for watching

OMg, this was so good. Thank you so much for making this video. I'm coming to ID from filmmaking and I'm not inspired to continue in the field when I see sloppy drag and drop videos from entrepreneurs who treat ID like a get rich quick scheme. This is the opposite of that, it reminds me why this field is so interesting and what can be accomplished. Thank you!

[@DevlinPeckYT]

Hahaha, I feel you! Yes, you can work on some really cool projects if you're open to pushing the envelope a bit. Glad that you enjoyed these examples :D.

[@simrandhupar3525]

I loved the Heart Class one the most, especially because it expected them to make a decision in a rather stressful situation where they might need to make an immediate decision without having too much time on hand.

[@DevlinPeckYT]

Yes, for sure! That pressure in the learning experience definitely mimics the pressure you would feel in the real world. Thanks for commenting and sharing your opinion :D

[@bertalankoeles]

Great examples, good stuff, Devlin!

Great examples! I’m always looking to find examples of elearning. This is great l! Thank you!

[@DevlinPeckYT]

You're welcome! Thanks so much for watching :D

[@Annarenaeyoung]

I just went through CPR training, and it was exciting to look at the training through the ID lens. I appreciate the real-world scenarios that the example in the video demonstrated and the pressure that is accompanied by these situations. I love that it included the pressure aspect! High stakes and pressure can affect performance, so when someone has more of an idea of what to expect, they will perform better. Great, great, great!

[@DevlinPeckYT]

Agree! Glad you enjoyed the video :D

Thanks for sharing these Devlin! My favorite concept was Connect with Haji Kamal but my favorite visually was UBER. Definitely gonna lookup some more of these. Much appreciated!

[@DevlinPeckYT]

Thanks! Connect with Haji Kamal is definitely a good one. Thanks for watching the video 😃

[@scottrademacher4265]

I'm very new to the eLearning culture and so appreciated all the examples. I'm definitely going to pick up Cathy Moore's book on the action mapping. Thanks again for another winning video.

[@johng5295]

Thanks in a million! Very well explained. This is the nth time that I am watching this again. Great content. Awesome. I couldn't find this --simply put anywhere else. Grade: A++ 💥

[@DevlinPeckYT]

You’re very welcome! Glad that you’re enjoying the content 😃

[@grantcullen6066]

Thanks Devlin. Really helpful to see what's out there. All five had their strengths. They all reinforced getting the learner immersed in the experience which is my main takeaway.

[@DevlinPeckYT]

That’s a great takeaway, Grant. The immersion is definitely there in all of these. Thanks for checking out the content 😊

[@niamhharnett1]

I love these examples and thank you for sharing! Any idea what elearning authoring tools the right have been made on? Payback seems to work with transitions that don't exist in Articulate.

[@pirayv3397]

Thanks, Devlin for sharing with us these examples. Much appreciated! :) Of the ones shared, I loved Payback the most for both visual (simple and clean) and instructional design. Among the elements that got my attention were the variables and feedback for the writing style.

[@DevlinPeckYT]

Thanks for checking it out! Payback is really cool, I agree.

[@shawnhampton8503]

Thanks, Devlin! Love it when you share great examples! I would love to see you share more collections of superb E Learning projects. Most Instructional Designers keep their portfolio pretty private. These obviously seem to have big budgets and talent behind them. Us lesser mortals are not as fortunate with Vyond and Captivate for our main tools.

[@bindzpatel2163]

Thank you for this - some very interesting examples. If you were making any more like this I’d be interested in seeing some examples that are creative but not using a big money or time budget.

[@DevlinPeckYT]

You’re welcome! And that’s a great suggestion, thanks!

[@harshadjoglekar2199]

Hi Devlin, thanks for sharing these. Just curious to know, how to create such programs? Which software do they use?

[@DevlinPeckYT]

Good question! Most of these are likely built with custom code, but you can achieve this with popular eLearning authoring tools like Articulate Storyline.

[@The_Creative_Workshop]

@@DevlinPeckYT I'm just looking at getting into E-Learning and picked up the software. I was surprised that the animation and interactivity is so basic in the software I looked at. Coming from a Flash background, I think many of these could be created in Adobe Animate and published with it's HTML5 output. Especially if they don't need to be SCORM compliant.

[@DevlinPeckYT]

@@The_Creative_Workshop For sure, good suggestion! The animation capabilities of the industry standard tools like Storyline are definitely limited. If you can leverage your multimedia background to create more immersive, rich experiences, then they will definitely stand out :)

[@vinaysk7118]

Can you please take session on creating story board with any example. It will be very helpful

[@DevlinPeckYT]

It is on my list! Thanks Vinay.

[@jcorange83]

Thanks for this video Devlin, I loved the animations on the payback video - I am wondering how they did them (the dotted line and even the button design and hover animation). Do you have a video on this type of animations? Thanks

[@DevlinPeckYT]

Hi Jane! You can use an animation on each line segment and line it up on the timeline so that they animate in smoothly. That may be the simplest approach :D.

[@jcorange83]

@@DevlinPeckYT Wow, bet that takes some time. I will have a little go. Thanks x

[@jcorange83]

Hi Devlin, I just had a go and managed the lines, look great. How does he get the screen to move with the lines? I tried slide transitions, but that didn't do it. Any idea? Thanks x

[@shalomweston6562]

Interesting information about elearning projects. I've been teaching for over 20 years now and am thinking about transitioning into ID. Are these samples typical of the ID industry or do some IDs create more higher order thinking content? The graphics part is my least favourite part of ID.

[@GaryHirson]

Hi Devlin. Thanks for this. I'm relatively new to ID. What are your thoughts on Vyond? Is it a good starting place for animation?

[@DevlinPeckYT]

You’re very welcome! Vyond is great…can save you a ton of time finding assets, it’s fairly easy to use, and a lot of corporate teams use it

[@acyeti]

The gamification here is great! Haji Kamal is really cool. I also really liked the dynamic animations in Payback. I'm curious about what happens when the learner chooses a bad option in Shady Sam. Most learning happens when we make mistakes and learn from them so the feedback for that is important. So, can you tell what software(s) were used to make these activities?

[@DevlinPeckYT]

Good question! I think that the first 4 experiences are all created with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. The final one was likely created with an eLearning authoring tool, but it was in 2010 so I am not sure. And that's also a good question about the bad options in Shady Sam. I completely agree that seeing the consequences of poor choices can help a lot. I will have to do another run through in Shady Sam to see what happens, but this one is definitely different than the usual scenario-based experiences. Since it's not designed for actual loan sharks, it's more of a creative way to give you insight into the shady dealings of these type of loan companies. I imagine that those moments will present themselves whether you answer correctly or incorrectly.

[@gilbertwalker9862]

Tech question for ya Devlin - I've got a html, css, javascript background and am decent at gamification. Should I learn Articulate Storyline (never used it before) given these top examples were probably made with code? Or should I just focus on getting some really slick workflows for my coding skills?

[@DevlinPeckYT]

Yes, learning Articulate Storyline will be helpful if you want to work in the eLearning space. Many teams prefer that you create the deliverable for them with Storyline so that they can maintain it internally. You can use your coding skills to extend SL projects, though, and take on some higher-value work as a result.

[@gilbertwalker9862]

@@DevlinPeckYT thanks so much bro. Ah I see, so Articulate is kind of the expected tool of the trade, but there might be scope for coding here and there? When you say extend SL you mean with javascript?

[@DevlinPeckYT]

@@gilbertwalker9862 Yes, exactly. Some of my most profitable projects were using my web dev skills to make stuff happen in Storyline that wouldn't be possible without custom code.

Hi Devlin...great stuff...but I would love to see what tools were used to create these simulations? Thanks

Great question, Harry. Most of these were probably created with custom code, but it’s possible to create them all with a tool like Articulate Storyline 😃

Thanks Devlin - I use captivate and ...but havent seen anything like the capability to do like Shady Sam there

These are great! I am looking for a game on health insurance. Maybe a CYOA / simulation where you pick a health insurance plan, then see what you pay after an injury. Similar to the loan game you showed. Do you know of any?

How are you filming this stream to have you live in the in circle

[@DevlinPeckYT]

I use a tool called OBS...it lets you set up your recordings basically however you can imagine. There's a learning curve, but there are tons of how-tos on KZbin.

[@MarieSlim]

You can also use Loom (not as steep of a learning curve) and it will put you in a circle too.

[@MarieSlim]

Oops - not sure if Loom will work for a live stream but it is still cool. :-)

[@DevlinPeckYT]

@@MarieSlim Good suggestion, Marie! Loom is a great tool :D

[@DevlinPeckYT]

@@MarieSlim True, I think you can use it to record videos though (which is all this is).
