Foodie Buzz, one of the most popular food chains in Northern America is struggling hard to make its employee market competent. Continuous training through eLearning and blended modes has failed to yield positive results. While training, it is important to motivate and engage learners, however, the organization has specifically failed to do so, which at the end laid to:

1. Lack of interest and motivation among learners

2. No mechanism to check on learners’ progress

To overcome these hassles, the organization called for a meeting with Jack Samuels, L&D Manager of Foodie Buzz. In the meeting, the organization asked Jack to create an eLearning content that engages learners and at the same time, helps the company to keep an eye on learners’ progress.

To motivate, engage and track learners’ progress, creating quizzes and introducing them in eLearning courses is one of the smartest options available for Jack. However, before creating quizzes, the major catch for Jack is to adopt and implement an appropriate eLearning authoring software, which is – easy-to-use, have an interactive user interface and is cost-friendly for the organization.

The most famous and easy-to-use eLearning authoring software available is Articulate. For creating quizzes, Jack while adopting Articulate Storyline, has, however, two options – Articulate Storyline 1 and its latest version; Articulate Storyline 2. In this blog post, we will broadly discuss major differences between both the versions, help Jack to opt the best version of Articulate Storyline and at the end, will guide Jack in creating quizzes using the appropriate eLearning authoring software.
