The 8-Step Storyboard Process

How to Create a Storyboard for Your eLearning Course

Storyboarding Visualization

Creating a storyboard for an eLearning course has several benefits, including:

1. Visualizing the Course: A storyboard provides a visual representation of the entire eLearning course, including the course structure, flow, and content. This helps the instructional designer, graphic designer, and other stakeholders to get a better understanding of the course content and its overall structure.

2. Ensuring Course Consistency: A storyboard helps to ensure that the course content is consistent across all modules and sections. It helps to identify any gaps or inconsistencies in the course material before development begins, thereby reducing the time and effort needed for revisions and modifications later.

3. Facilitating Collaboration: A storyboard facilitates collaboration between the instructional designer, graphic designer, and any stakeholders involved in the course development process. It allows them to share their ideas and suggestions for improving the course, and to work together to create something that is cohesive and effective.
