Webinar - The Art of Storyboarding
Storyboard is like the blueprint of an eLearning course. Instructional designers and course creators mostly intend to create a good storyboard for their courses but something or the other hinders them. At times, some of them fear that the storyboard might make their course too linear. eLearning Instructional Design storyboard storyboarding webinar
'Art of Storyboarding' Webinar – Highlights
Team Raptivity recently hosted a successful webinar on ' The Art of Storyboarding ' by Desiree Pinder - Executive Director/Founder of Artisan E-Learning.

First-Time Storyboarding
E-learning Uncovered
This week's blog entry features reflections on their experiences as first-time storyboarders. . My only prior storyboarding experience comes from the creation of a TV commercial script. Therefore, writing a storyboard for an entire e-learning lesson including all of the narration, graphics suggestions and programming notes was a new frontier for me. Trust the learning process.
8 Easy Steps for ELearning Storyboards
Before you jump into creating any elearning program, it is important to first create a storyboard for the course. Surprisingly, there are many instructional designers who do not put enough effort to an effective storyboard. If you are doing work for a client, internally or externally, the storyboard is the perfect way to establish buy-in. Understand the Goal of the Course.

Storyboarding, prototypes and e-learning design
Spark Your Interest
This week they talked a bit about storyboarding. He starts with the storyboard and maps it out. Judy talked about prototyping, referencing Michael Allen's approach ( alluding to this , but not necessarily endorsing). It made me think about my design process, more specifically marrying the graphic or visual design with the instructional flow. I'm not sure what to call my approach, because I don't think it's strictly storyboarding, nor is it prototyping. Once I have the concept, then I can decide storyboard or prototype or something else.
Captivate 8 Custom Motion Effect Example

For example: Suppose the specifications state that you must incorporate the company's visual branding standards into a lesson? Many designers use storyboarding to communicate content and interaction to developers for eLearning lessons. This is a great application for storyboarding, but there are also other very practical uses for storyboarding that designers might consider. good storyboard provides: A simple visual layout you can easily use to check against the content points and specifications. By Donna Bryant. But what about added business specifications?
Using a screen type index to create balanced storyboards
Good To Great
The way I do this is to create what I call a 'screen type index' I put this at the start of every storyboard I write to give me that at-a-glance big picture information. So, when I've completed my storyboard, I complete the screen type index, assess the balance and make the appropriate changes. Of course, like any patchwork, there's no perfect design.

Michael Acton Smith, 36, the founder of Moshi Monsters, looks more like a rock star than a businessman: a neater, more polite Bob Geldof, all tousled hair, black T-shirt and trousers set off by cool white shoes.
Maybe that's because every year or so, Acton Smith and his former partner, Tom Boardman, plus fellow tech entrepreneurs, run a music festival from his three-storey house in Berwick Street, Soho. It was called Berwickstock – a tongue-in-cheek tribute to the 1969 Woodstock festival – which took place five years before Acton Smith was born.
In his day job of internet entrepreneur, Acton Smith appears to be on the way to becoming the dominant global player in children's online space, with one child signing up to Moshi Monsters every second – a Neopets-meets-Facebook site.
In this safe, enclosed, but fun virtual world, children "adopt" one of six lovable monsters to nurture and with whom they play games, do competitions and complete "super Moshi missions". Crucially, they also talk to other children in the monster world.
"The real tipping point came in 2009 when we allowed kids to connect with each other and gave them a forum to discuss things," says Acton Smith, showing me the kind of upward-soaring chart most businesses can only dream of. "Until then, it had been a solo experience and we were on the edge of bankruptcy. It was when we added the social element that membership really took off."
To date, 50 million children around the world have signed up. Membership is free, but subscribing to certain games and challenges costs £5 a month. In the UK and Australia, one in two children between seven and 11 years old have adopted a monster – one in five in the US – and the team at the holding company, Mind Candy, are working at translating the site into Chinese, Japanese and Spanish to enter the Asian and South American markets.
"We have the opportunity to build one of the most successful entertainment brands ever for kids," he says with conviction. "And opportunities like this don't come along very often."
From being one of the 100 or so tech start-ups clustering around the east London "silicon roundabout" where Shoreditch High Street meets Old Street, Mind Candy is beginning to look like a serious business. Last month, when one of the original investors, Spark Ventures, sold half its stake, it put a value of $200m (£62m) on the company. Spark had made 14 times the money it invested in 2004> Its chief executive, Tom Teichman, remains on the board of Mind Candy.
Membership revenue is now flooding in, but Acton Smith has also been quick to seize terrestrial merchandising opportunities, signing partnership deals with Penguin, Topps Trading Cards and Scholastic, among others. The recently launched Moshi Monsters Magazine has already become the bestselling monthly children's magazine. Later this month, Mind Candy will be launching the sale of the soft-toy monsters along with figurines of their pets, called Moshlings, in 900 Toys "R" Us stores across America.
"I want the website to be the heart of the property, and around it are all these other windows on the world for kids," says Acton Smith. "Kids don't just want to experience a brand that they love as a book or a TV programme, but everywhere – it is hugely exciting."
We meet in Mind Candy's headquarters in an old tea warehouse in Shoreditch High Street, part of David Cameron's much vaunted vision for an east London tech city.
Up on the fourth floor, the place is buzzing with twentysomethings and it is hard to find a quiet place. The tree house looks possible, but a bunch of schoolchildren are in there, and eventually he asks a couple of his staff to vacate a tiny glass-sided meeting room.
Moshi Monsters is Acton Smith's third and most successful venture so far and it has been a hairy ride. The product of an American father and Irish mother, he and his sister were brought up in Marlow by the Thames. "I was quite shy and introverted, but my parents always encouraged me in whatever crazy ideas I had." He played chess, graduated to poker and watched a lot of kids TV in America on summer holidays. "I think the idea of the American dream rubbed off on me."
After leaving Birmingham University with a degree in geography in 1996, he briefly worked in Goldman Sach's human resources department before joining up with his university friend Tom Boardman, who had read artificial intelligence and computer science.
"Tom and I used to meet after work and talk about setting up our own business. I remember visiting him in Cardiff one weekend and finding this book about doing business on the internet which I devoured."
They came up with the idea of an online version of The Gadget Shop, quit their day jobs and moved into Boardman's parents' house in Cardiff. They called it Hotbox. Boardman designed the website but nothing much happened until they came up with the idea for the "Shot Glass Chess Set" in which each chess piece was a shot glass filled with liquor and every time a player took a piece he had to drink the shot. They got publicity in every lads' magazine for Christmas 1998 and sales just took off.
In 1999, with dot.com fever at its peak, they heard about First Tuesday – a sort of dating agency for tech entrepreneurs and investors – went along to an event and met some potential investors. "We bought our first suits and went along to a formal meeting."
They raised half a million pounds, changed the name to Firebox from Hotbox, after discovering it was the name of an American pornography site, and moved to London, expanding quickly.
"It was a crazy time. Every time you got into a taxi, the driver would be pitching an internet idea," recalls Acton Smith. "Then on 11 March 2000, it just stopped. Nobody wanted to know about the internet anymore."
They shrank the business, stopped taking salaries, hung on and survived. "It was a hugely valuable lesson because now I'm more careful with money. I never want to get back into that situation."
In 2003, Acton Smith left Firebox to start Mind Candy although he and Boardman remain friends. His first idea was for an online game called Perplex City based on Kit Williams's treasure hunt story, Masquerade.
He raised £6m and buried £100,000 in a virtual world, creating what he calls a "cross media adventure". "We won lots of awards, but commercially it was a disaster," he says ruefully.
So, in 2007, he went back to his investors, including Teichman. "I said I am really sorry about this, but it just isn't working. But I do have this one other idea I want to try." He wanted to create a site with the name Puzzle Monsters, but soon realised it was unsuitable for a global brand. So after three months' brainstorming he came up with Moshi Monsters.
By 2008, the site was up and running, but attracted little interest. For the second time in his career, he faced bankruptcy and then came the inspiration to make it a social network, and subscriptions took off.
He puts his success down to playfulness, luck and flexibility. "A lot of people launch a site and if it doesn't take off they assume it has failed. You have to continually tweak and change and polish until it finally snaps into place."
Boardman feels it has more to do with "ruthlessness and determination". Teichman puts it more diplomatically: "Michael had a vision and he has stuck to it."
The trick now is to keep the momentum going. "There are fads that burn very brightly, then fade away," he admits. "But there are other evergreen brands such as Barbie or Pokémon. You have to nurture them slowly and carefully."
He is constantly adding games and events and has recently launched a pop video starring "Lady Goo Goo", which gained a million viewers on YouTube in the first month.
He is well aware of the heat in the market – the shares of Linkedin doubled after the recent US float, while the British TweetDeck was acquired by Twitter in May for $40m.
He says he has no intention of selling, just yet. "We have had knocks on the door from all the major media companies and I have said 'No thank you' so far. I would rather build it and float it than sell it too early," he says.
"Too many tech entrepreneurs sell out too early, which is a shame because I would like to see some mass internet success stories in Europe."
That should be music to Mr Cameron's ears.

|Minimum Stay
|7 nights
We are 'on the sand' and the sugary sand is beautiful, powdery white sand that stretches as far as the eye can see. Our private quiet beach house allows you to unwind, relax and enjoy the moment. Soak in the relaxing atmosphere, enjoy a refreshment on the patio, toast each other at sunset, all the simple things of life that are most rewarding.
For active people, antiquing (some of the best in Florida), the The Clearwater Marine Aquarium, home of Winter the dolphin star of the movie 'Dolphin Tale' is 10 miles away. Baseball, Football, hockey and more sports is 45 minutes away in Tampa and St. Petersburg. The Mahaffey theater is 15 minutes away where stars perform in a quaint small theater. Busch Gardens is 45 minutes by car and Disney is only 2 hours away.
Raised in Michigan, my family spent our vacations at a rental cottage on one of the lakes. I have been drawn to the water ever since. My tour in the navy gave me the dream (more a hope) of owning a house on the ocean/gulf.
My day job is to run a travel company that specializes in wonderful vacations from cruises to tour to resorts, we book it all.
Owner/Property Manager purchased this cottage in 2012
Several years ago I was driving the beach and saw this pretty beach house. They were having a open house so I went in. I loved the place immediately. Unfortunately the asking price was way out of my ability so I did nothing but kept looking from time to time. Several years passed and the housing boom busted and the property came back on the market at a more reasonable price and we got it. By renting the house out, we can pay down the mortgage and whenever It is not rented, we get the opportunity to live our dream at the beach.
Comfy is the way our guest describe the beach house. Quickly you feel like you have lived there forever. Convenience is the word that comes to mind when I think of the beach house location. We are convenient to restaurants, attractions, stores - just everything! The deck out front actually is on the beach. No elevators or long walks, down 4 steps and you are on the white sand. Up over the sand berm and there is one of the most beautiful beaches in Florida.
Where we are located few people come down to that area of the beach so it is very private and quiet, except for the sunsets, where it seems all of Indian Rocks Beach comes out to the beach for our spectacular sunsets!
We could not have asked for a better week! Weather was perfect every day! Beautiful home! So comfy and cozy and perfect for our size family. We enjoyed the perfect sun sets!
Loved walking on the beach every day and collecting shells, great restaurants and shopping! But our favorite meal was cooking the the grill and eating dinner on the deck and watching the sun set!
Thanks for sharing your wonderful piece of Florida with us.
This is our 4th time staying here and we love it. The house is well maintained and is right on the beach. We'll be back in 2017!
We loved our stay at this cozy cottage on Indian Rocks Beach. We enjoyed beautiful sunsets relaxing on the deck and were just steps from the beach. Would definitely stay here again.
Overall a great week on the beach! Great location, good weather, and the beach house was very accommodating and worked out great for us and our pet.
This was our 4th time to visit IRB, but the first time to rent your cottage. It was perfect. My favorite features were the view and proximity to the beach (of course), and the Sassy Cat who came to visit us on the back porch daily. We had a great day at John's Pass in Madiera beach riding a jet ski and hanging out at the Copper Clover (Irish Pub that just opened recently). Everyone in and around IRB is so friendly and welcoming. Your place is heaven on earth, and we surely hope to come again.
This is a very well-appointed, charming cottage, and the location is perfect. The beach is a short walk from the front deck, which by the way is expansive and has a sun shade that is quite handy in the afternoon. The cottage faces west to the Gulf, so the water views and sunsets are amazing. Binoculars are a must for watching ospreys, pelicans, terns, herons and skimmers at work. In the water we saw dolphins galore as well as manatees and even a mammoth sea turtle heading back to the water after laying her eggs. A great experience -- we hope to do it again.
This cottage is very cozy and comfortable. It feels private even though the properties are close to each other. The view of the Gulf is unrivaled. The cottage is clean and well furnished. You feel comfortable there. The awning covered deck and boardwalk with shower and hose to rinse after being at the beach are great. Then there's only 15 - 20 yards of soft sand to be on the beach.
We loved being able to see the Gulf over the dunes. Especially at sunset!
Ed is a very responsive owner. We were in touch and the minor problems that occurred were taken care of ASAP.
The cottage has a guest book to write a short summary of your stay. It's fun to read the entries that other guests have written about their stays at the cottage. There are books on the history of Indian Rocks Beach that we found very interesting.
We also enjoyed our proximity to the Kooky Coconut! We could walk to it easily for their homemade ice cream! The building has been there since 1925!
We highly recommend staying at 812 Beach Trail.

Depublication orders usually aren't exactly the most earthshaking thing on the California Supreme Court's weekly conference summaries. Nevertheless, I took particular notice of one on last week's summary: Dattani v. Lee. Dattani is worthy of note for a couple of reasons. First, the Court took the unusual step of depublishing the Court of Appeal's opinion on its own motion – nobody had filed a depub request. Second (and more importantly), Dattani underlines one of the most important lessons in all of appellate law (see the end of this post for the takeaway).
It's not uncommon for those of us in the defense bar to find that a common legal theory serves as the foundation for many but not all of a plaintiff's claims. If the trial court rejects that theory pre-trial, the plaintiff faces a dilemma: go to trial with what are often sideshow claims before getting appellate review, or seek an interlocutory appeal.
Every jurisdiction has various avenues to possible interlocutory review; in California, it's usually through a petition for writ of mandate, while in Illinois, Rules 304, 306, 307 or 308 might serve, depending on the facts. But the thing is, in most cases, review is discretionary. The appellate court can simply refuse to hear the matter – and usually, that's exactly what happens. Interlocutory orders that are reviewable as of right are rare.
To understand the significance of Dattani, it's necessary to briefly revisit a major decision the Supreme Court handed down last year: Kurwa v. Kislinger. In Kurwa, the plaintiff sued for breach of fiduciary duty and assorted related claims. The parties traded claims and cross-claims for defamation.
Before trial, the court held that once the parties formed a corporation, they didn't owe each other any fiduciary duties. That was pretty much that for the fiduciary duty count and all the related stuff. But there was nothing final about the ruling: the defamation counts were still viable.
So the parties worked out a deal. The plaintiff dismissed the fiduciary duty and related claims with prejudice. Both parties dismissed their defamation claims without prejudice and swapped waivers of the statute of limitations. Then off the plaintiff went to the Court of Appeal.
Ultimately, it didn't work. The Supreme Court pointed out that given the statute of limitations waiver, the parties were apparently planning to go right back to court regardless of what happened on appeal, so the dismissals weren't final and appealable.
Fast forward to Dattani.
Dattani arose from a four-count complaint. In 2012, the trial court granted the defendant summary adjudication on the first count. When the defendant appeared for trial in September 2012 on the remaining claims, the plaintiff's attorney said he was dismissing those claims to pursue an appeal.
The request for dismissal was filed on the proper Judicial Council form. The court's register of actions for that day stated that "a dismissal of all the other causes of action" had been filed and removed the matter from the master calendar. But the section of the Judicial Council form for the clerk to note whether dismissal had been entered as requested was never filled in.
Seven months later, on April 16, 2013, the trial court filed a take-nothing judgment prepared by the plaintiffs' counsel stating that the "remaining causes of action" had been dismissed on September 10. On May 6 – less than thirty days later – the plaintiffs filed a notice of appeal.
The defendants moved to dismiss the appeal, arguing that the plaintiff's mere request for dismissal of all remaining claims was the equivalent of a final judgment as of the day it was filed – in September 2012, long before the notice of appeal was filed. The Court of Appeal agreed.
There's a line of cases going back thirty years allowing plaintiffs or cross-plaintiffs to in essence manufacture finality after losing on a key point of law by voluntarily dismissing the remaining claims. The rationale is that even though voluntary dismissals aren't generally appealable, in such cases it's not really a voluntary act – it amounts to a request for entry of judgment on the adverse ruling of law.
The Court of Appeal concluded that Kurwa isn't to the contrary. Sure, the Supreme Court refused to allow an appeal from a voluntary dismissal, but in the Dattani court's view, finality hadn't been destroyed in Kurwa by the voluntary dismissal itself – the problem was the mutual statute of limitations waivers.
Bottom line, the Dattani court held, even though no judgment was filed until seven months later, the mere filing of the notice of voluntary dismissal, coupled with the earlier loss on the pretrial order, amounted to a final and appealable judgment. Since that happened in September 2012 and the notice of appeal wasn't filed until May 2013, the notice of appeal was untimely, and the appeal was dismissed for lack of jurisdiction.
Although the Supreme Court regularly reminds us that an order to depublish isn't an expression of their opinion one way or the other about the Court of Appeal's opinion, it seems clear that the Supreme Court didn't want a published Dattani opinion knocking around in the Official Reports. Nevertheless, the takeaway seems clear. Consider the Dattani facts one more time. There was no judgment entered at the time the Court of Appeal says finality happened. The plaintiff had filed a notice of dismissal, but the section of the form reserved for the clerk to note that dismissal had actually occurred hadn't been filled in. The only indication anywhere (apparently) that the court staff regarded the matter as concluded was the register of actions.
A timely notice of appeal is jurisdictional everyplace I'm aware of. In most jurisdictions, there's no remedy for an untimely filing; even in places where one exists, it's extremely limited.
So if you're even in the same zip code as anything that seems remotely like the end of the line in a case, extraordinary caution is called for. Confirm everything, assume nothing, and check everywhere (remember that register of actions from Dattani). Finality – and the possible tolling of the time to appeal – is an intricate area of the law. Nevertheless, it's a question counsel has to get right.

Newcastle winger Jonas Gutierrez admits Sunday's Barclays Premier League home clash with Manchester City is a "massive" clash which is likely to determine both clubs' fates for the season.
The Magpies head into the game on a high after two Papiss Cisse wonder goals sunk Chelsea and moved them within a point of third place, while City know two more wins should clinch them the title.
Gutierrez told his club's official website: "We have to keep focused because we have two big games. City know what is expected of them. They have to win if they want to be champions, so it is a massive game."
Alan Pardew's men must hope Paul Lambert's Norwich do them a favour when they travel to the Emirates in the only Saturday kick-off, although the Canaries have suffered three straight losses.
Meanwhile, City fans will be listening out to discover if Swansea can rise to the occasion once again by wrapping up the unlikeliest of victories over Manchester United at Old Trafford.
Tottenham are still in with a shout of the Champions League and they head to struggling Aston Villa on Sunday buoyed by the news of Harry Redknapp's likely future at White Hart Lane, plus Kyle Walker's decision to sign a new long-term deal.
Villa still have relegation worries, but those fears are more acute at Bolton, whose midweek loss to Spurs means they head into Sunday's Reebok Stadium clash with West Brom in desperate need of points.
Trotters striker Kevin Davies said: "It looks like it is going to go down to the last game. We have to win, no doubt about it.
"Anything can happen, but realistically we need four points at least. We have to pick ourselves up and bring everything."
QPR are also desperate for a win at home to Stoke as they prepare for a final day visit to Manchester City, while Blackburn realistically need three points against Wigan on Monday to stand any chance of survival.
Defiant boss Steve Kean said: "We are not thinking about losing. It has not even crossed my mind. We want to be positive. The goal is to beat Wigan and go into the last game and beat Chelsea."
Relegated Wolves meet Everton at Molineux while Sunderland boss Martin O'Neill will hope his side can snap their recent poor run and finish the season on a high with a win at Fulham.

[PHOTO] Poet Laureate, Passport To Pimlico, and Lemon Curd | Thu, 9 May 2002 11:45:42" />
A reminder to myself,
I have to change my process of: 1) taking a digital photo, 2) hybridizing an iris where the digital photo was just taken, and 3) posting the digital photo on iris-photos. In the attached picture of Passport To Pimlico there are 2 standards missing. Passport To Pimlico bloomed normally, however when crossing Poet Laureate to it, I needed to get two of the standards out of the way, neglecting to confirm that the digital photo had developed.
It didn't in this case, sorry.
