# Text-based Storyboard — Screen Nine

> Kit 17 · Screen Nine · deliverable · designed and built by I Wayan Usada · fictional government academy

## Design premise

A classroom day must become e-learning by Friday. Every scene is a bet on learner effort. Revised after the build so it matches the 2D builder and the 3D module track; both read `scenes-data.js`.

## One budget meaning

The budget is **learner effort**: how much attention and work a scene asks of the learner. (Earlier documents called it learner effort in one place and production effort in another, and the 2D build allowed overspending while the 3D refused it.) Both builds now refuse a scene that would overspend, and allow each scene type at most twice.

| Scene | Effort | Verdict |
|---|---|---|
| Content screen | 1 | teaches, if a later scene uses it |
| Knowledge check | 2 | teaches (retrieval) |
| Branching scenario | 3 | teaches (decisions) |
| Reflection prompt | 2 | teaches (own context) |
| Hotspot screen | 2 | teaches once; a second one is a caution |
| Opinion poll | 1 | decorates |
| Expert video | 2 | decorates |
| Click-next polish | 0 | decorates |

## Briefs

| Brief | Budget | Required | Failure rules |
|---|---|---|---|
| Incident refresher | 9 | knowledge check | no check; any expert video |
| Intake conversation skills | 10 | scenario in the first three slots | no scenario; scenario after slot 3; a poll |
| Data classification basics | 8 | reflection prompt | no reflection; more than one hotspot; click-next polish |

## Quality check

STRONG only if at least three scenes, no failure rule fires, and at least half the scenes teach. Otherwise MIXED (two or more teaching scenes) or SLIDESHOW. The earlier check printed "STRONG BUILD" while its own failure rules fired, and crashed when a rule note was added.

## Judge a colleague's plan (new, LO2)

A colleague's intake draft: content, expert video, poll, content, scenario. Three questions: which scenes decorate (video, poll), is the scenario placed well (no: slot 5 after four screens), verdict (rework). Scored 0–3.

## 3D module track

The track's hills are as high as each scene's effort; each station holds an object for its type. "Send learners" runs learner dots that brighten only at teaching stations. In the intake brief, a scenario after slot 3 opens an illustrative drop-off before it, where some dots fall away.
