Definition: Microlearning is a way of

delivering content to learners in small,

bite-sized chunks.

Microlearning is more than turning 1 hour

videos in 1 minute videos - it’s about driving

continuous learning and behavior change.

Microlearning should include both

push and pull of content.

Gamification/Engagement Methods


A Quick Clarification on Gamification

What is Gamification?

Gamification is using game-based mechanics, aesthetics

and game thinking to engage people, motivate action,

promote learning and solve problems.

Why is Gamification Critical in a Microlearning

Platform?

With microlearning, employees engage with the platform

frequently (often daily), so the need for game mechanics

is an absolute necessity to drive participation.

Some Critical Game Mechanics

• Game Play – Wrap in Fun

• Leaderboards – Personal & Team

• Rewards – Points, Badges, Prizes

• Report Card – Monitor Personal Progress

• Coaches – Guide through Learning

• Social – Connect with Peers

It Takes a Combination of Game Mechanics to

Drive High Participation in Learning

Measure Through to Behavior

Change and Business Results

Microlearning provides a perfect opportunity to map learning, to

employee knowledge and through to behavior change and business

impact.

Drive to Business Impact

Define ideal behaviors for a specific role

or job that align with Business

objectives

Collect and document behavior

observations on the job

Access smart analytics that pinpoint

knowledge and behavior gaps

Accessible Anywhere


Due to the nature of Microlearning

(frequent, small bites), the experience

must be woven into the work day and

accessible from any device.

A Word about Content


5 Truths about Content Chunking

1. Short videos are only one form of content to be used in microlearning.

2. Microlearning requires a different content approach and mind-set than learning professionals may be used to.

3. Focus on what employees need to know to perform on the job vs. “nice to know content”

4. Microlearning allows you to identify knowledge gaps at the granular level, so you need a platform that helps you intelligently adapt.

5. Preparing Microlearning content requires a methodology:

Business Objectives>Knowledge Requirements>8-10 Key Learning Points>Micro Topics>Content Bites
