The Development Phase

In the development stage, the authoring of the training program is made in accordance with the approved course outline and course design plan. Development phase mainly deals with writing storyboard, visualizing graphics, and creating assessments.

A storyboard is a series of illustrations showing everything that will be covered in a course. It helps to visualize the content, graphics, and audio of the course. It acts as a guide for graphic designers and developers while developing the e-learning course.

The advantages of storyboarding are:

• Used as a visualization of the course.
• Helps in estimating costs of the course development.
• Shows the feasibility of the course.
• Highlights the scope to improve the content to evoke stronger reaction.
• Acts as a common point of reference for designers and developers.
