#eLearning #InstructionalDesign #BranchingScenarios
eLearning branching scenarios are a great way to let your learners practice their critical thinking and decision-making skills. A well-design branching scenario allows your learners to face real-world situations, make decisions, and see the outcomes in an engaging and safe way. But getting started with planning and designing a branching scenario can be overwhelming.

And so, in this How-To Workshop, I'll walk you through how to plan, outline, and design a branching scenario for your next eLearning project. We'll explore the anatomy of a branching scenario, tips for storyboarding your branching scenario, and how to control the complexity and scope of your branching scenario. We'll also look at various examples of branching scenarios from my real-world client projects.
