Storyboarding for e-learnings

Every instructional designer uses storyboards for their e-learning project. But… what is a storyboard? The term “storyboard” comes from the world of cinema and television. It refers to a document, the storyboard, used in the “pre-production” phase (in paper or electronic format) to include all the technical (special effects, framing, camera movements) and artistic elements that make up the final product. The producers therefore sketch out the film with a series of “images” and accompanying descriptions.

For an e-learning course, the storyboard is therefore the “plan” of the course, a document that contains not only the content but also all the other elements: graphics, videos, narration scripts, quiz questions, etc. It allows the designer to visualise the different scenes, texts, animations, images, illustrations, drawings, questions, etc. and allows experts and/or sponsors to comment on all these elements before moving on to development.
