Today’s workers and learners strive to learn by themselves because of the
immediate need to solve problems and make needed change. They find the answers
and solutions themselves without waiting for formal training programs. This is a
great opportunity for those who are in the training and learning professions.
The challenge, however is how to start and make changes to accelerate learning
in micro ways and stop just pushing content production.


The time is ripe to help the new worker. Rapid business change, popularity of
mobile devices, availability of apps and advances or shifts in technology are
creating favorable environments for Microlearning.

Learning in the workflow integrates training, learning, performance, support,
coaching and knowledge streaming to help learners access, apply, store and
retrieve information while doing work. It also helps them learn faster and
attain immediate results at lesser cost.



Rapid business change presents learning designers and developers with both
challenges and opportunities. The ever-shifting technological landscape
pressures companies to respond with organizational changes. They are constantly
faced with challenges such as:

 * Gaining first-to-market advantage
 * Preventing product obsolescence
 * Coping with constant changes in policies, prices and customer needs
 * Supporting agile product design, development and distribution
 * Adhering to new compliance standards

Microlearning enables learning stakeholders to meet these changes head on. In
particular, it helps:

 * Disrupt results with faster, better, less costly learning
 * Facilitate learning while in the workflow and as needed
 * Develop and implement compliance programs by trickles, snippets and
   spaced-out delivery
 * Embed tips, checklists, solutions in software, processes and other guides
 * Aid learning in very fluid business environments
 * Enable real-time collaboration between engineers, operations, administration,
   marketing, customer support, and learning and development departments
 * Deliver Microlearning in layers of learning and performance systems


The Microlearning for Disruptive Results - An Action-Driven Online Workshop will
cover the following topics:

Shifting Needs

 * Understand the new learner type, “The Seekers”—“get-it-now,” “do-it-now” and
   “must-learn-it-now” workers and learners
 * Review the science and findings on why Microlearning disrupts results
 * Align roles of L&D, trainers, SMEs, elearning designers and developers in
   implementing Microlearning
 * Define Microlearning
 * Compare Microlearning with formal and informal learning
 * Establish the effectiveness of Microlearning
 * Understand the environments of on-the-move, on-the-job and mobile learners
 * Identify challenges and opportunities for Microlearning demands

Methods

 * Implement a dynamic needs analysis approach for up-to-the-minute
   Microlearning requirements
 * Conduct automated assessment of business critical gaps for immediate
   attention
 * Design shorter, succinct and chunked knowledge bases, learning lessons and
   on-the-job aids, references and support tools
 * Use templates and design models to communicate design approach
 * Use the principles of “simple rules” in designing job aids, tips, guides and
   references
 * Introduce knowledge-sharing processes and practices with workers and teams
 * Facilitate micro-coaching, micro-goal setting, micro-assessments,
   micro-projects and peer reviews
 * Change writing, video and presentation styles for Microlearning
 * Add context, stories, metaphors and memes to increase acceptance, motivation
   and engagement among learners and workers
 * Understand the roles of experts, learning accelerators and curators
 * Sustain Microlearning initiatives
 * Link Microlearning with competency and expertise development
 * Integrate Microlearning with learning environments and blended approaches

Applications

 * Apply Microlearning in compliance, technical, operations, manufacturing,
   software, people skills, on-boarding and awareness training
 * Integrate Microlearning content in social learning, communities of practice,
   technical support and performance support
 * Implement a Subject Matter Expert (SME) Microlearning content preparation
   process
 * Convert existing large content and new content into Microlearning content
 * Implement individual, group and automated curation processes
 * Consider impacts on LMSs, XAPI, RLS, adaptive mobile tools, MOOCs, micro
   videos, virtual reality (VR), games and situated learning, performance
   systems and social learning tools to facilitate micro-content delivery and
   tracking
 * Implement instant analytics and statistical data to help learners self-manage
   learning

Returns

 * Capture analytics and measure impacts and benefits of Microlearning content
   in work efficiencies, cost reduction and improved performance
 * Calculate savings from Microlearning
 * Prepare presentations on Microlearning projects
 * Present justification on investment returns for using micro-lessons
 * Exhibit a business case to show financial impacts and yield of Microlearning
   design
 * View and study examples and demos

 


The Microlearning for Disruptive Results - An Action-Driven Online Workshop is a
novel approach in blended learning. Instead of an instruction- or
teaching-oriented method, the workshop is focused on “doing and application.” It
provides experience, skill development and real-life application of
Microlearning. At the end of the workshop, participants would have experienced
Microlearning implementation, not just its theory.

Key Elements of the Workshop Method

 * The workshop topics are spread out over three sessions.
 * Participants will access a secure website for all workshop activities.
 * For each session, participants will study Microlearning subjects—an average
   of about 5 subjects ranging from 5 to 7 minutes each.
 * There are a total of 20 subjects.
 * Each subject contains all must-do and must-learn on the topic. Knowledge
   bases are provided for mastery and further detailed study before, during and
   up to six months after the workshop.
 * Each Microlearning subject contains micro-lessons, activities, mini-projects,
   references and tips.
 * Participants can do self-driven study on a daily basis to review the
   Microlearning subjects.
 * Participants may also choose to do advance previews of all 20 subjects as
   their time will allow.
 * Mentors and facilitators are available for consultation at a specified time
   daily.
 * Participants are required to showcase their projects as part of the
   knowledge-sharing activities. Confidential content may be confined to
   facilitator’s viewing.
 * Mentors and facilitators are available to provide immediate feedback to
   mini-projects through chat and discussion rooms or, if needed, by phone,
   Skype, Join.me or other alternatives.
 * A two-hour webinar, that is facilitator-led, is scheduled for each session
   focused on haring expert experiences, answering questions and providing
   guidance and feedback. Plus at least one hour for exercise that is
   independent and self-driven. Mentors are assigned to participants. A total of
   3 hours for each session. Webinar sessions will use Zoom.
 * Participants will have individual and team progress analytics for
   self-learning management and feedback to mentors and facilitators.
 * It is recommended, although not required, that the participant has one or two
   peers from his/her company or personal contacts to be peer reviewers and
   collaborators. They will interact and provide feedback and review of the
   participant’s mini-projects. This allows the participant to experience how to
   work with a team.






 



Organizations use many forms of collaborative and learning platforms. The
workshop does not require participants to use one nor does the workshop promote
any specific software or platform. Instead, a proprietary system will be used to
enable participants to have hands-on experience throughout the duration of the
workshop. Participants will likewise be asked to review, explore or use their
company’s or other providers' software and platforms for more meaningful
application as needed.




The workshop is for team members who are responsible for helping employees,
clients and customers apply knowledge and information.

The workshop is significantly beneficial to the following audiences:

 * Learning, training and elearning specialists, team members and leaders.
 * Team leaders of different functions within the company who desire to learn
   how to improve Microlearning knowledge sharing to support projects.
 * Subject matter experts (SMEs) who are responsible for implementing blended
   training and elearning.
 * Instructional designers who must convert content or create highly engaging
   elearning, performance support and on-the-job training.
 * Trainers, presenters, designers and developers who need to add high
   interaction and engagement to their training and elearning courses.
 * Managers and leaders who must lead and manage the design and development of
   Microlearning systems.
 * Customer support and product engineers involved with client interaction and
   product information distribution.


The workshop is an in-depth experience employing high interaction, varied
multimedia lessons, mini-projects, coaching and mentoring. Due to the extensive
need for facilitator and mentor interaction, workshop seats are limited. Reserve
your seats early.
