Digital skills for collaborative OER development/Storyboarding/Introduction

Introduction

The origins of storyboarding are within the film industry, where it was popularised by Walt Disney Productions during the early 1930s. A storyboard in this context is a graphic organizer in the form of images displayed in sequence to pre-visualise a motion picture, animation or interactive media sequence.

In learning design, a storyboard is a (usually) graphic way of representing the sequence of outcomes, assessment, activities and resources in a course. It is a means of representing the overall way in which a course is organised and how the different elements are sequenced and fit together.
