Callout boxes can be used to organize content (especially that which is heavily text-based) and can be a good way to visually separate blocks of content, and call the learner to a specific action. They work well as a cue for when you want to change the modality of learning (e.g., from passively reading text, to actively engaging in some sort of follow-up task), or to flag really important content that you want to make sure the learners do not miss.

Be careful with your colour choices; if the contrast between the background colour and the text colour is not high enough, it can be difficult to read and/or cause accessibility issues. To make sure you are compliant with WCAG accessibility requirements, check your work with a WCAG colour checker tool (e.g., the WCAG Color contrast checker Chrome extension).
