Situation

In new hire training for Web Advisor positions at a web hosting company, I wanted a fun, demographic-appropriate activity that trainers could use in live training.

Task

Classroom trainers divided the class into two teams, with the option to use a round-robin style or provide each team with a buzzer for answering questions.

Action

I used Storyline to create a Tetris-style game where answering questions correctly clears lines, while wrong answers add lines. The team with the fewest lines after 20 questions wins.

Results

It was a successful creative use of Storyline in classroom training.

Instructions To demo, choose a team and answer questions, observing how correct answers clear lines and incorrect answers add lines. The game has a limit of 10 lines to prevent teams from falling too far behind due to consecutive wrong answers. Below is a sample, as well as the actual classroom training Storyline.
