Seeking Feedback on My First Storyline 360 Module
Hi Kyle, I went through the module. The information is beautifully chunked, and the progression of the activities is a real strength. You start with a manageable task and gradually increase the challenge, giving learners a foundation to build on as they move into more demanding interactions.
The main adjustment I’d suggest is reducing the on-screen motion. As I started reading one sentence, another sentence or animated element appeared and pulled my attention away. That repeated interruption made it harder to follow the explanation, even though the content itself was well organized. The animation adds extraneous cognitive load because the learner has to keep redirecting attention while processing the information.
I’d keep the progressive structure but let each complete thought settle before introducing another element. Present related text together, allow enough time to read it, and reserve motion for moments when it clarifies a relationship or directs attention to something essential. That would give your strong instructional design more room to work.
