Storyboarding
your content
Haider digital specialises in providing high quality design services for a wide range of clients.
One of the key aspects of our services is to help our clients storyboard their content effectively.
So, what exactly is storyboarding?
A storyboard is a visual representation of the content you want to produce.
It is a series of illustrations, similar to a comic strip, that show the sequence of events or ideas that will be covered in your instructional design project.
Storyboarding can be done on paper or digitally, and it is an essential step in the instructional design process.
Why is storyboarding so important ?
1
Storyboarding allows you to plan your content in a structured way. This is particularly important if you are working on a large project with many different sections or modules. By storyboarding your content, you can ensure that each section flows logically from the one before it, and that your overall project has a coherent structure.
2
Storyboarding helps you to visualise your content before you start creating it. This is particularly important if you are working with a team of designers or developers, as it allows you to communicate your ideas clearly and ensure that everyone is on the same page.
3
Finally, storyboarding can help you to create engaging and effective instructional content. By visualising your content in a storyboard, you can think more creatively about how to present your ideas. You can experiment with different layouts, colours, and illustrations, and make sure that your content is visually appealing and easy to understand.

Engagement outcomes
As the world continues to shift towards online learning, engagement outcomes have become a critical part of instructional design. When designing online content, it's crucial to consider the different ways you can keep learners engaged, interested, and motivated to complete your courses. Customising your content in Articulate, Captivate, or H5P is an excellent way to achieve this goal.

Articulate, Captivate, and H5P are three popular e-learning authoring tools used by instructional designers to create interactive and engaging e-learning content.
Each tool has its own strengths, and choosing the right one for your content can make all the difference in your engagement outcomes.
Customising your content in Articulate is an excellent way to create engaging, interactive e-learning content that keeps learners engaged from start to finish. Articulate provides a variety of features such as drag and drop interactions, quizzes, and multimedia elements that allow you to create unique and interactive content.

Captivate is another popular authoring tool that is well known for its ability to create engaging simulations, branching scenarios, and gamified learning experiences. Captivate has many features that enable instructional designers to create interactive content that provides real-world experience to learners. It's also great for creating responsive designs that work seamlessly across different devices.
H5P is a free, open-source authoring tool that allows you to create interactive content with HTML5. H5P is unique in that it's incredibly easy to use, and it allows you to create interactive content that can be embedded directly into your website or LMS. With H5P, you can create a wide variety of interactive content, including quizzes, interactive videos, and branching scenarios.

Regardless of which authoring tool you choose, there are many ways to customise your content to improve engagement outcomes.
Here are some tips to get you started:
Personalise the learning experience
One of the most effective ways to increase engagement outcomes is to personalise the learning experience. Personalisation can take many forms, such as customising the content to the learner's level of knowledge, interests, or learning style. Customising your content in Articulate, Captivate, or H5P allows you to create unique learning experiences that meet the needs of your learners.
Gamify your content
Gamification is a powerful tool that can be used to increase engagement outcomes. By incorporating game-like elements such as points, badges, and erboards into your content, you can make the learning experience more fun and engaging. Captivate is particularly good at creating gamified learning experiences, but you can also incorporate gamification elements into your Articulate or H5P content.
Use multimedia elements
Multimedia elements such as videos, animations, and images can be used to create engaging and interactive content. Articulate and Captivate both provide a wide variety of multimedia features, such as video recording and editing tools, that enable you to create high-quality multimedia content. H5P also allows you to create multimedia content, such as interactive videos and presentations.
Create interactive scenarios
Interactive scenarios allow learners to apply what they've learned in a real-world context. By creating branching scenarios or simulations, you can help learners develop problem-solving skills and apply their knowledge in a meaningful way.
Provide immediate feedback
Immediate feedback is essential for keeping learners engaged and motivated. By providing learners with immediate feedback, you can help them stay on track and feel like they're making progress. All three authoring tools allow you to create quizzes and assessments that provide immediate feedback to learners.
