I originally designed this training for compliance staff at a university. The live course sits inside the university’s learning platform, so I couldn’t share the original version publicly.
​
Instead, I rebuilt a version as a portfolio demo. Rather than using traditional eLearning tools like Storyline or Rise, I challenged myself to recreate the experience using the Wix website builder.
​
Why? I wanted to see whether I could recreate the interactive experience using tools that weren’t designed specifically for eLearning. Pushing myself outside my comfort zone has helped me adapt to different client environments and budget constraints.
​
At first, the builder felt like a limitation. Authoring tools are designed for learning interactions, while website builders usually aren’t. But I realised that a lot of the same behaviours can still be recreated using simple web elements.
​For example, I used expandable sections, buttons, and overlays to reveal content step by step. I also used pop-up elements to provide immediate feedback, similar to what learners would see after answering a question in a traditional eLearning module.

Rebuilding the module in Wix started as a design experiment.

The result isn’t perfect, but the exercise reinforced something important: good instructional design doesn’t depend on a particular platform. With the right structure, even simple web elements can support interaction, feedback, and guided learning.
