Ideas for VERY dry content
Hello - I'm very new to e-learning and the Articulate programs. I've used Studio to build my first e-learning module, and just got Storyline. I have now been tasked to create an e-learning module ...
I turn boring, abstract and complex training into comics and/or series of cartoons. The key to bring financial/legal stuff alive is to come up with a story (some good suggestions in this thread on how to do that) and then come up with a visual metaphor. The problem with abstract information like finance is that you can't take a photo of it - it doesn't "exist" in real life. Hence the visual metaphor that brings it to life. Here's a piece I did as part of a management training course.
Me and my colleagues do this type of work all the time (turn complex information into fun visual stories), feel free to drop me a line if you need more ideas: www.businessillustrator.com
