What is microlearning?
Microlearning is a learning approach ideally suited for skills training. It involves stripping down a skill or idea to its most essential parts - and only teaching those. Consequently, microlearning courses are highly focused and made up of bite-sized exercises. Bite-sized exercises or “learning nuggets” are at the core of microlearning. In fact, everything about microlearning is shorter, quicker, and sharper than traditional long-form learning methods. Ideal for the modern learner - employees have only about 20 minutes a week to focus on training and development. With microlearning, organizations can make those minutes count.
It's short in duration. Think 3 - 10 minutes. (But no more than 20)
It focuses on a specific concept, skill, idea, or topic.
There's a variety of content.
It is designed for and delivered on a smartphone.
What are the benefits of microlearning?
Whether it's referred to as microlearning, microtraining or even nanolearning, one thing is clear: there are massive benefits for both learners and organizations who use a bite-sized learning approach. Learner attention rates go up - short content drives over 20% more information retention than long-form content.
Easy accessibility.
Easy accessibility increases completion rates - Most microlearning research has found that the combination of bite-sized learning and smartphones boosts completion rates. Mobile phones encourage anytime-anywhere learning while shorter courses ensure learners are more likely to complete their training.
Closes skills gaps.
Short bursts of targeted content is ideal for just-in-time learning in the workplace. It ensures that trainers focus on one learning outcome at a time which lets learners quickly close any small knowledge or skill gaps they have.
Budget friendly.
One of the financial benefits of bite-sized learning is that it has an impressive return on investment. The cost of creating a bite-sized course is much lower than the cost of creating long-form training.
