By now, you probably know how to prepare a new story, but you need to be aware of your options. As someone who tends to start from the ground up with my development, New Project is usually the selection I make. However, depending on how you prefer to author e-learning, it might be easier to import from a previously built project or template. This comes in handy if you prefer authoring in PowerPoint or if someone else is developing the branding guidelines and/or templates for your project. The point is that you have options, and they are as follows:
New Project: Create your story by starting afresh, with a blank canvas
Record Screen: Record screen content to integrate into a new story
Import: This option allows you to import content previously developed in the following softwares:
Microsoft PowerPoint
Articulate Quizmaker
Articulate Engage
Articulate Storyline
You are also able to import questions from text files or Microsoft Excel
