What is Microlearning?

Microlearning is an educational approach that involves delivering information or learning materials in focused, bite-sized units. It emphasizes short and targeted learning experiences designed to meet specific learning objectives. Complex topics are broken into easy-to-digest modules, usually 2–10 minutes long. This approach helps reinforce learning and improves knowledge retention.

You can create microlearning from scratch or by using a template.

How to create Microlearning from scratch

1. Click on the +Create course button > Select the Start from scratch option > Provide a title for your microlearning, choose the Single-page layout, and click on Start creating:

2. Start building out your microlearning by adding your desired content blocks to the page. You can add content blocks using the Quick Access toolbar or by dragging and dropping content blocks from the Content blocks panel on the left of the screen.

Note: Adding sections and pages to your microlearning is optional. However, we do not recommend using them, as the purpose of microlearning is to keep content as short as possible – this allows learners to quickly consume information without investing large amounts of time.

3. Optional: Once you have added the required information to your microlearning, you can configure it to suit your goals. You can do this via the 3 dots in the top right corner of the Editor > Settings.

This link has more information on the different settings available for your training.

4. Preview your microlearning to see how it will appear to your learners. To do this, click the Preview button in the top right corner of the Editor:

5. Once you are satisfied with the result, publish your microlearning to share it with your learners.
