Microlearning built by local experts
Microlearning is an educational approach that involves delivering content in small, bite-sized units of information, designed to be consumed in a short period of time. Content is developed for your specific requirements and can be accessed via your LMS, saved on an internal site or distributed via multiple channels.
Microlearning is particularly effective for completely new concepts, topics that require frequent updates, or proficiencies that need continuous practice and reinforcement. Each microlearning module focuses on a specific topic, concept, or skill, and is designed to be easily digestible and quickly understandable. It can be delivered through various formats including videos and infographics.
The main idea behind Microlearning is to break down complex information into smaller, manageable parts, making it easier for learners to absorb and retain knowledge. This approach capitalises on the way our brains naturally process and remember information. Here are some reasons why Microlearning can be beneficial:
Time Efficiency: Microlearning fits well into busy schedules, as learners can complete modules during short breaks or downtime. This reduces the time commitment required for traditional long-form learning sessions.
Retention: Smaller chunks of information are easier to remember and recall and Microlearning helps reinforce learning by distributing exposure to content over time.
Engagement: Microlearning content is designed to be visually appealing and interactive, increasing learner engagement. This can lead to higher motivation and better learning outcomes.
Accessibility: Microlearning is suitable for various learning environments, including mobile devices, making it convenient for learners to access content on-the-go.
Focused Learning Objectives: Each Microlearning module targets a specific learning objective or skill. This allows learners to choose the content that aligns with their immediate learning needs, or re-watch something they have viewed previously.
Personalisation: Microlearning content can be tailored to individual preferences and needs.
Continuous Learning: Microlearning encourages a habit of continuous learning by providing regular, bite-sized opportunities for skill development and knowledge acquisition.
Adaptability: Microlearning is well-suited for just-in-time learning, where learners can quickly access information when they need it, without going through lengthy courses.
Feedback and Assessment: Microlearning modules can incorporate quizzes, assessments, and feedback mechanisms, enabling learners to gauge their understanding of the material and identify areas for improvement.
Cost-Effectiveness: Creating and delivering Microlearning content can be more cost-effective than developing and maintaining traditional long-form courses.
It's important to note that while Microlearning offers many benefits, it may not be suitable for all types of learning content. A balanced approach that combines Microlearning with other instructional methods can provide a well-rounded learning experience.
