Articulate went all-in on AI at Articuland 2026. Whether or not that bet pays off, course production is getting cheap everywhere - and that makes human review the bottleneck.
The Invisible Tax on Instructional Design In most eLearning production cycles, there is a dead zone between the moment a storyboard is approved and the moment the first review link is generated. This phase isn't spent on instructional strategy or visual design. It is spent on the '
The shift from creator to editor AI has fundamentally changed the speed of course development. What used to take weeks of drafting now takes minutes of prompting. However, the speed of production often creates a bottleneck in the review cycle. When a course is built primarily by AI, the role
Beyond Decorative Filler In many eLearning projects, images are the last thing added and the first thing ignored during the review cycle. Developers often use stock photos as "wallpaper" to break up text, while reviewers frequently sign off on visuals as long as they aren't glaringly
The Review Trap Most eLearning review cycles fail because they start at the wrong end of the priority list. Stakeholders get bogged down in comma placement and brand colors while the underlying instructional logic is fundamentally broken. When you reach the end of a project and realize a branching scenario

Have you ever wanted to enhance your eLearning courses with custom interactivity, but coding seemed like a roadblock? What if I told you that creating something impressive, like an interactive FAQ accordion for Articulate Storyline, could be done with just a few AI prompts and a sprinkle of JavaScript? In
One common challenge in Storyline development is randomizing the position of drag and drop objects. While Storyline has built-in randomization for question banks and quiz questions, there isn't a native way to randomize the position of drag and drop objects. This can be particularly challenging when dealing with
Anthropic just released something that's getting the AI community buzzing - their Computer Use API. I couldn't wait to take it for a spin, so I decided to try something ambitious: teaching Claude to evaluate an e-learning course. Here's what happened when I gave
