Abstract

In today’s ever-changing world, continuous learning has become a necessity. Developing skills and competencies is essential for professional and personal growth, yet finding the time and motivation for learning is a common challenge. Microlearning offers a solution to these challenges by allowing learners to acquirenew competencies in bite-sized chunks. This approach, where information is cut into smaller, easily digestible pieces, has gained popularity among educational professionals and learners alike. What do we mean when we talk about microlearning? In this playbook, we will introduce you to the essentials of the microlearning approach and explore some innovative ideas for crafting captivating learning experiences. While the concept of microlearning is nothing new, it has become a relevant topic in today’s discussions due to the new opportunities offered by modern technologies. We believe that the microlearning approach is particularly useful within the field of lifewide learning where learning experiences are often designed to be shorter and more focused on specific competencies.
