Using Microlearning for Stand-Alone Training
By Carla Torgerson and Sue Iannone In previous blogs, we’ve discussed how microlearning can be used to prepare learners for learning events, and as follow-up after learning events. In this article, we’ll consider how microlearning can be used as stand-alone training. Key Benefits Of course, using microlearning as stand-alone training can provide all the core […]
Using Microlearning for Post-Event Reinforcement and Performance Support
By Carla Torgerson and Sue Iannone In the last installment, we explored how to use microlearning techniques to prepare learners for live training events. But what about after the event? Can microlearning techniques help learners retain what they learned, as well as perform better in their jobs? Yes, they can. Here’s how. Why Reinforce Learning […]
Using Microlearning as Preparation for Live Learning Events
By Carla Torgerson and Sue Iannone In previous articles, we defined microlearning and we described how long (or short) microlearning materials should be. Now, it’s time to move into application. We previously defined microlearning as short content that could be used as preparation before a learning event, follow-up to support a learning event, stand-alone training, […]
