Progressive Reveal: Unlock content or questions as you progress
One step at a time—because the best learning unfolds with purpose.
What It Is
Progressive Reveal interactions unlock new content, questions, or steps only after a learner completes the current one. Whether it’s reading a paragraph, answering a question, or watching a video clip, the next piece only appears when the previous is completed. This creates a focused, guided learning experience that encourages curiosity, pacing, and attention to detail.
When to Use It
- Delivering step-by-step instructions or procedures
- Controlling flow in complex scenarios or simulations
- Preventing learners from skipping critical safety or compliance details
- Pacing story-driven learning, where each part builds on the last
- Releasing quiz questions only after reflection or learning content is completed
Why It Works
- Encourages linear thinking and process mastery
- Increases engagement and focus by minimizing distractions
- Promotes anticipation and curiosity, which boosts retention
- Reduces cognitive overload by breaking up dense content
- Prevents skipping ahead, ensuring foundational understanding
Impact Insight: Imagine your team mastering processes step by step—because your training revealed just enough, just in time, to keep them focused and progressing.
