AI-Powered eLearning Development: Vibe Coding, Rise & Mighty Studio

#InstructionalDesign #eLearning #LearningAndDevelopment #AI AI is changing the way we think about eLearning development. For years, building custom eLearning meant learning the limits of tools like Storyline, Rise, Captivate, and other authoring platforms. We learned variables, triggers, layers, states, JavaScript, workarounds, hacks, and all the little tricks needed to push those tools beyond what they were originally designed to do. But what happens when AI changes the role of the eLearning developer? What happens when building custom learning interactions becomes less about manually moving rectangles around the screen and more about describing what you want, iterating on the result, and making better instructional decisions? That’s exactly what I explore in this conversation with Nate Norman and John Pinkster from Maestro Learning, the creators of the Mighty plugin for Articulate Rise. In this video, we talk about: ✅ How AI and vibe coding are changing eLearning development ✅ Why authoring tools may become more about orchestration than production ✅ How Mighty Studio lets you create and remix custom Rise interactions ✅ Why AI may not replace authoring tools, but change how we use them ✅ What instructional designers should learn as tools continue to evolve ✅ Why imagination, problem-solving, and delegation may matter more than tool expertise ✅ The future of Articulate Rise, Storyline, custom interactives, and AI-powered learning design We also talk about the bigger shift happening in the instructional design industry: moving from “Can I technically build this?” to “Can I clearly describe what should be built, why it matters, and how it should work?” ⸻ Want to supercharge your Articulate Rise courses with Mighty Studio templates?
