“

- [Instructor] For good reasons, Storyline is the leading tool with which to create e-learning. More important than knowing all the details of a tool is knowing best practices of how to use it. Here are the best practices that will frame the individual movies of this course. Working efficiently. There are a gazillion little steps in creating an e-learning course. So to build rapidly, you got to work efficiently. Related to working efficiently is leveraging the work of others. It used to be that e-learning developers had to build their own templates and a lot of their own assets. That day has passed. Another best practice that I'll stress is being consistent. A lot of the times, this means templating your work when you can. In most situations, consistency is more important than artistic flair. Creating visual interest will be another best practice of ours. More than a great script or interaction, learners and stakeholders alike are seduced by good looking visuals. So if you want to be a good e-learning developer, you got to develop this skill. And finally, varying the way you present material. If there's a one thing that's made me successful, it's this. You might as well use it, too. My aim for this course is depth, not breadth. And these best practices will help you understand why we are covering the Storyline elements that we do.
