What is branching?

Branching simply means designing different routes through the content, depending on input from the user.

Branching Scenario

Branching scenarios let learners work through complex ideas by exploring how their choices can lead to different outcomes. Here’s an example of what a branching scenario looks like when mapped out:

Looping Scenario

When designing a branching scenario, you need to keep track of the different paths learners could take depending on the decisions they make. You can have decision tree branches for every response or only branch at key points—it’s up to you!

Since they mimic how things play out in real life, branching scenarios are more realistic than linear ones. They’re especially effective for letting learners practise interviews and emergency response situations.

Moreover, bear in mind that with branching scenarios, each learner’s path through the scenario is different. This personalizes the experience and gives learners a chance to skip over the information they already know and focus on the things that interest them or need to master.

Choosing how to reply to a concerned doctor. Let’s see what happens. Each choice will present a different outcome depending on what a student selected. And then we can continue each branch individually.

This is just a single branch, it can get as complex as you can imagine.
