What Is a Microlearning Video?
A microlearning video is a short video that teaches a single concept or skill, usually in a few minutes or less.
Microlearning Video
A microlearning video keeps to one learning point, short enough to watch in a break and focused enough to act on right away. It breaks a big topic into small pieces rather than one long session.
It suits training people to fit around work, and topics that split cleanly into single ideas.
For example, a software rollout is taught as ten two minute videos, each covering one feature.
