An explainer is a substantial piece of content that describes an idea or framework, and then elaborates upon it so that others can understand its relevance and/or implement something about it. Explainers often contain examples and case studies that illustrate the idea in practice, and/or figures that describe frameworks or workflows. Examples of explainers include: CSCCE’s Community Participation Model guidebooks and champions program tip sheets.
