Checklist Generator

Replace static bullet-point lists with interactive checklists that auto-save learner progress across sessions.

Build Self-Saving Interactive Checklists Your Learners Actually Complete

Build Self-Saving Interactive Checklists Your Learners Actually Complete

Bullet points don't drive accountability. Learners read the list, close the tab, and forget step 3.

Building a checklist that saves progress in Storyline means variables, local storage JavaScript, and cross-session state management — a developer task, not a designer task. Rise doesn't support persistent progress within a block at all.

The Checklist Generator lets you build the list visually, and progress saves automatically — no code, no variables, no JavaScript. Export a single HTML file and embed in Articulate Rise, Storyline, Captivate, Canvas, Moodle, or any LMS that accepts HTML.

Use it for onboarding procedures, compliance requirements, performance support, and any multi-step process where completion tracking matters.

How To Use the Generators


Each tool in the eLearningDesign.org ecosystem follows a streamlined, three-step workflow designed to keep you focused on instructional strategy while we handle the technical execution.

  1. Input Your Content: Open the Content tab to add your specific learning prompts, interactive options, and coaching feedback. This is where you build the logic and instructional heart of your activity.

  2. Customize Your Design: Switch to the Design tab to align the tool with your course aesthetic. You can manually adjust colors, typography, and layout structures to ensure a seamless visual fit.

  3. Generate and Embed: Go to the Generate tab to finalize your tool. Click "Copy Embed Code" for your authoring tool's HTML block, or "Download as HTML" for local hosting and offline use.
