Storyboard That is an online tool that makes it easy for trainers to create a digital story in minutes using images, text, and storyboard templates. It helps L&D professionals to design more effective, sticky learning by taking advantage of how human brains process information and breaking down complex concepts into smaller parts in a fun and engaging way.
The technology includes the Storyboard Creator tool, which uses a drag-and-drop feature to quickly insert characters, scenes, themes, speech bubbles, and infographics into a template. Storyboard That also gives individuals the power to customize their layouts. Users can create a traditional, linear layout or take advantage of layouts such as timelines or spider maps that allow for flexibility.
