This is an emerging trend in education, online learning, and training. Microlearning deals with small learning units presented in short-term activities. It is uses short-term-focused strategies with reinforcement and testing to ensure comprehension. Microlearning is more than just taking long form content and breaking it down into short sentences or small units. The key to these short nuggets of content is being well thought out and the presence of one learning objective. Then these individual items or units are offered to the learner to help master an individual concept or topic. Of course, the ubiquity of smart phones and tablets have helped propel this type of learning. The fabled shortened attention span of learners has added to microlearning’s attractiveness. A person can consume content and learn on the go. Whether it is a new language, technical vocabulary, elements in the periodic table, or reviewing math formulas, microlearning can be applied in many, many areas; all at the learner’s own pace. Done in quiz form, this learning style can be addictive to some; as gamification has proven. According to Grovo, a microlearning platform, microlearning is 300% faster to develop, 50% less expensive to produce, and 58% more engaging for learners. There are obviously difficult concepts that microlearning is not right for. But with the benefits of shortened time commitments, narrow topic focus, and easily digestible knowledge nuggets, microlearning has a place in education and likely will become more acceptable in teaching scholarly content. Well that’s it. I am a publishing consultant and work with associations, publishers, and individuals on a host of content related challenges. Reach out to me with your questions.
