Best Practices?
Hey everybody!
Wondering if any of the experts can help me out
I am looking at making a very long "course" in Storyline. What are the best practices for doing this?
Would it be better to...

That is interesting....So if a storyline slide is central and branches off in 4 different directions, how does storyline decide which direction to load?
Also, if storyline loads the first 3 slides first, would it be smart to make these slides last a little longer to enable storyline to load the rest of the course while the user interacts with the first few slides???
Not sure how Storyline decides how to load things. The way Storyline names assets (no more slide1.swf like in Presenter), it makes it a bit more tedious to track. If I get bored 
I may do some more tests later . . . Be good to also know if in a linear course that things get loaded linearly.
Making the first three slides a little longer is often a good idea, especially for courses being delivered worldwide to locations with slow network connections.
Besides branching, if you have a long course with free navigation and are showing the learners the course menu, it might also be good to do.
