I work on an instructional design team that does not use storyboarding or prototyping because the nature of our company requires us to produce courses at a fairly fast rate. Most of my teammates feel that storyboarding or prototyping will take up too much time, so instead they jump directly into course-building.
I have recently learned about the process of storyboarding, and I would like to know your thoughts: do you think storyboarding adds time to the process or saves time overall? I would love to share your thoughts with my team. Thank you!

Alyssa - wonderful question! Such a good one in fact that I started a new discussion thread for it in the community so we can get insights from more people on this one. You can check out the thread here: https://community.articulate.com/discussions/building-better-courses/does-storyboarding-save-or-add-time-to-the-process . My personal opinion is that the storyboard saves time!
- LiLi-f2eafff5-c5 years agoCommunity MemberI agree, Nicole! The storyboard gives the opportunity for all stakeholders to understand how this course works with the defined flow of the contents. If anyone has any input, this is a good time to address and accommodate. However, make sure to sign off the storyboard before moving into development. Any additional changes during the development will slow down the delivery of the product.
