Description

Branching scenarios can be a great solution for giving people an opportunity to practice making relevant decisions. While they can be a valuable experience for learners, building branching scenarios can be time-consuming and challenging. It’s easy to feel overwhelmed in the process of planning and designing branching scenarios. What you need is a better process for creating branching scenarios.

In this session, you’ll learn how to streamline your processes for branching scenarios, from initial planning through writing and creating a functional prototype. You’ll start from the beginning, by analyzing the problem you’re trying to solve, identifying your objectives, and gathering stories from SMEs. You’ll get tips for planning the flow of your scenario and compare different branching structures. With a quick demo, you’ll see how the free, open-source tool Twine can streamline the process of planning, writing, and prototyping branching scenarios. By the end of this session, you’ll have a streamlined process for planning, designing, writing, and prototyping branching scenarios that can then be built in any authoring tool you want. This streamlined process will help you save time and make the complexity of branching scenarios more manageable.

In this session, you’ll learn:
  • What questions and tactics elicit relevant stories and examples from SMEs
  • How to use Twine for planning, writing, and prototyping branching scenarios
  • How giving learners opportunities to fix mistakes can streamline branching design
  • How to use different branching structures for scenarios
  • What to write first in a branching scenario
