Designing Microlearning by Carla Torgerson,Sue Iannone Pdf

Learn to Create Effective Microlearning Microlearning is an essential tool that talent development professionals can use to fully engage their learners and tackle organizational performance needs. How do you know if the microlearning approach is successful? And what works? In Designing Microlearning, the newest volume in ATD’s What Works in Talent Development series, experts Carla Torgerson and Sue Iannone answer these and other questions including: Why choose microlearning for your learners and organization? How do you determine your approach and then execute the implementation? How do you demonstrate success? Where do you go once you’ve started? This guide for practitioners covers the four main uses for microlearning: preparation before a learning event, follow-up to support a learning event, stand-alone training, and performance support. It introduces MILE, the MIcroLEarning Design model, which outlines the details of creating a microlearning resource or program. Discover how to identify performance objectives; determine program technology and structure; create or select resources; promote what you designed; and monitor, modify, and evaluate it. Included are case studies, tips, and resources, as well as more than 20 job aids, checklists, and worksheets. Samples consist of: an assessment of your organization’s readiness and compatibility for microlearning a worksheet to guide the design of your microlearning a tool for aligning your microlearning measurement and evaluation efforts a communication plan for sharing key information with learners, managers, and stakeholders.

Challenges and Opportunities for the Global Implementation of E-Learning Frameworks by Khan, Badrul H.,Affouneh, Saida,Hussein Salha, Soheil,Najee Khlaif, Zuheir Pdf

As schools continue to explore the transition from traditional education to teaching and learning online, new instructional design frameworks are needed that can support with the development of e-learning content. The e-learning frameworks examined within this book have eight dimensions: (1) institutional, (2) pedagogical, (3) technological, (4) interface design, (5) evaluation, (6) management, (7) resource support, and (8) ethical. Each of these dimensions contains a group of concerns or issues that need to be examined to assess and develop an institutions e-capability in order to introduce the best e-learning practices. Challenges and Opportunities for the Global Implementation of E-Learning Frameworks presents global perspectives on the latest best practices and success stories of institutions that were able to effectively implement e-learning frameworks. An e-learning framework is used as a guide to examine e-learning practices in countries around the globe to reflect on opportunities and challenges for implementing quality learning. In this book, therefore, tips for success factors and issues relevant to failures will be presented along with an analysis of similarities and differences between several countries and educational lessons. While highlighting topics such as course design and development, ICT use in the classroom, and e-learning for different subjects, this book is ideal for university leaders, practitioners in e-learning, continuing education institutions, government agencies, course developers, in-service and preservice teachers, administrators, practitioners, stakeholders, researchers, academicians, and students seeking knowledge on how e-learning frameworks are being implemented across the globe.

Optimizing Education Through Micro-Lessons: Engaging and Adaptive Learning Strategies by Ilic, Peter Pdf

Traditional teaching methods often struggle to meet the diverse and dynamic needs of both educators and students. The persistent challenge of retaining knowledge, exacerbated by the Ebbinghaus forgetting curve, continues to hinder effective teaching. Moreover, the burden of mental fatigue resulting from long, uninspiring lectures and information overload plagues the learning experience. As educators grapple with these issues, the need for a more efficient and engaging pedagogical approach becomes increasingly urgent. Optimizing Education Through Micro-Lessons: Engaging and Adaptive Learning Strategies is a groundbreaking compendium of insights from eighteen distinguished authors. This meticulously curated volume provides a transformative solution to the problems plaguing contemporary education. Micro-lessons, concise learning units spanning just 1 to 10 minutes, and accessible across multiple devices, hold the key to unlocking superior learning outcomes and bolstering retention rates. In this book, academic scholars, educators, and policymakers will find a comprehensive guide that not only explores the theory behind micro-lessons but also offers practical strategies for their effective implementation.
