Storyboards communicated the structure, content, and interactions of online learning to subject matter experts and developers alike. The trick is to include the right level of detail to make your storyboard actionable. When done well, the SME will know exactly what content will appear on the screen and can therefore envision the course well enough to approve it before development commences. The developer will have a highly detailed blueprint from which to work. Creating an actionable storyboard sets everyone up for success.
