Build Interactive Decision Tree Activities Without Coding
Build Interactive Decision Tree Activities Without Coding
Rise cannot build a decision tree. Storyline can, but every branch requires its own slide, triggers, and variables. A five-level tree becomes a project in itself.
The Decision Tree builds a visual branching path learners navigate by answering questions at each node, then exports a single HTML file you embed in Articulate Rise, Storyline, Captivate, Canvas, Moodle, or any LMS that accepts HTML.
Use it for troubleshooting workflows, policy application, triage logic, and any module where the skill is following a decision path, not memorizing an answer.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Common Use Cases
Troubleshooting: Walk learners through a diagnostic tree so they practice narrowing down the problem step by step.
Policy Application: Turn a complex policy into a decision path learners follow to reach the correct action.
Triage and Escalation: Build a branching path that teaches learners when to handle, escalate, or refer.
Technical Specifications
Visual Interface for Code: Focus on the questions and branch logic while the generator handles the tree visualization and path navigation.
Fixed-Frame Optimization: Built to hold its layout inside iframes and web objects in Rise 360 and Storyline.
WCAG Friendly: Includes keyboard navigation support so the activity stays accessible.
Brand-Consistent Palette: Fully customizable colors and fonts so the tool matches any corporate, educational, or organizational identity.
