How Does an Instructional Design Team Create Your Training Program?

Storyboards provide instructional design teams with a means to correspond with the clients, subject matter experts, and developers. It should be viewed as an opportunity to collect, organize and review content, provide visuals, give instructions, explain animations, and write narration.

There are several different formats for storyboarding that vary in complexity from basic tables to complex software. Whether the format is one that you chose or was chosen for you, it is not as important as the components it contains. In other words, regardless of the format, every storyboard should capture these important elements to work effectively:

Learning Content
It might seem obvious, but the content component of a storyboard provides the subject matter expert with the opportunity to see exactly what the message is going to be and how it is going to be presented. It is their opportunity to review and approve before development begins.

Style, visuals, and navigation
The adage - "a picture is worth a thousand words" holds true in storyboarding. Visuals should include the graphical elements being presented on a page including the size and color of the font; backgrounds and navigation, images, drawings, text placement, and anything else that helps to tell the story.

Narration
This may not apply to all eLearning projects, but if your course includes voice-over talent or closed captions, including narration in your storyboard is important for both the subject matter experts and the developers. The subject matter experts should approve what the narration says while the developers, with the assistance of the instructional designers, will ensure the narration works with the on-screen elements.

Graphic Design Requirements
Whether graphics and images are provided to you by the client or custom graphics are being created, conveying what you require is crucial in the storyboard. It may be as basic as requesting a graphic treatment such as a drop-shadow or asking a graphic designer to remove the background and replace it with something that works with the theme.

Developer Instructions
Though written for developers to tell them everything they need to know to program or build the course, these instructions can explain to approvers and subject matter experts how a page will work. Developer notes also explain navigation, buttons, and other interactions that may be built into your course.

What is an Instructional Design Consultant's Job?

Once you have your designer in place it’s time to ensure that you get exactly what you should expect. While it is correct to state that your instructional designer essentially designs the training materials required for your learning initiative, they do much more. A good designer helps your employees to further learn and develop their abilities by helping them to make sense of all the materials and resources that are part of the learning initiative. This creates an overall better learning experience and learning outcomes.

If you find the right fit when hiring your contract instructional designer, they will become an integral extension of your learning team.
