Turn Any Image Into a Drag-and-Drop Puzzle for Adult Learning
Turn Any Image Into a Drag-and-Drop Puzzle for Adult Learning
Labeled diagrams are passive. Learners scan them for two seconds and move on. Building a drag-and-drop image activity in Storyline means custom states, triggers, and drop targets for every single piece — hours of development for one interaction.
The Puzzle Palette lets you upload any image, set the puzzle configuration, and generate a drag-and-drop activity in minutes.
Export a single HTML file and embed it in Articulate Rise, Storyline, Captivate, Canvas, Moodle, or any LMS that accepts HTML.
Use it for anatomy diagrams, equipment assembly, product layouts, and any visual where spatial memory matters more than passive viewing.
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.

Common Use Cases
Product Assembly: Help learners memorize the parts and placement of complex equipment by having them build the product visually.
Anatomical or Geographic Study: Break down biological systems or maps into fragments that learners must piece together to understand the whole.
Process Visuals: Use the puzzle to represent the "big picture" of a project or workflow, requiring learners to assemble the components to see the final result.
