Using http://www.e-articles.info/e/a/title/How-to-Storyboard-Your-Web-Site/ shows how to storyboard your web site. In order to plan a website, one must visualize what they are looking for it to entail. The information that you are looking to advertise should be well thought about and well organized in a storyboard. Like in building houses, the blue prints are like the storyboard of a website. This allows for the builder of the website to see what they are envisioning their website to look like and make changes before making the website. The main page is the start with the topic of what the website will be. There will be a central navigation bar that needs to be well planned for. A software program can be used to create the storyboard, sheets of paper, or any other type of mechanism. After the first draft, go back and make more corrections to the storyboard just like in writing a paper for classes. Competition in websites has a big effect if the website will be productive or not, this must be taken into consideration when preparing the website with the storyboard.
This would be helpful in education by allowing students to use storyboarding for their blogs, websites, or even their papers. They could use the storyboard as an outline and do rough drafts to final papers. Also, when students are blogging they could use the storyboard to make their blog page presentable to their classmates. This will allow them to feel as though it is a personal page and want other students to look at their information they are posting. Students can use storyboarding with the help of their teachers.
I think that storyboarding is a good idea. It allows for the person to stay on task with what they are looking for on their website. When they go to make it they are well prepared and know exactly what they are looking for. This will help their teachers know the direction they want their website to go in and also to help them with making the production happen. This will be helpful in the education world by having students have personalized websites, be able to know how to do them when they are in the business world, and move forward with the ever so growing technology world that we live in today.

Hayley, you really touched on some good points and examples of how storyboards can be effective. It is certainly a smart way to design or create a website that may be used for a very high-end business company, etc. Although, it was a really good point of how they can be used in the classroom; and to break it down on some exact projects that storyboarding can be the foundation for. Very interesting.
I agreed with you about your points of the positive and effective ways storyboarding can be used. It is so important for the student or company to be able to have a storyboard, so that they may organize and personalize what they want on their website. For companies, the design of their websites are so important in the advertisements and appeal to the company. Good points. They were very interesting.
