Creating a course storyboard uses a deliberate, step-by-step approach to design engaging learning. A storyboard is a visual plan that guides structure, pacing, and interactions from start to finish. Begin by defining clear learning objectives—what learners must do at the end. Those objectives inform sequence, content, activities, and assessments, align stakeholders, and reduce rework so development stays on schedule and within budget.
Key points
- Use a training needs assessment to identify skill gaps, critical tasks, and priorities.
- Plan media placement—videos, charts, and diagrams—and note scripts, cues, and accessibility.
- Draft screens with text, visuals, and checks for understanding, then review with SMEs and iterate.
