#GuildChat for 05/29/2015: Micro-learning
Our next #GuildChat takes place Friday May 29th at 11am PT / 2pm ET. Our topic for this chat is Micro-learning.
The convergence of learning and work is inevitable in many sectors as individual and organization seek to maintain productivity and learn in or as close to their work as possible. Micro-learning, or small learning activities which take little time to both create and complete, hold much promise in providing valuable content within the workflow.
Common examples of micro-learning include video vignettes, podcasts, blog posts, micro-games or “gamelets”, flashcards or other small quiz questions. In many cases it is learning content requiring little advanced technology or expertise to create.
Is the era of large elearning courses coming to an end? Can micro-learning fill the need for just-in-time learning? What becomes of the role of the learning professional when SMEs and peers alike can easily create and distribute performance supporting content across the organization? Join us as we explore these and other questions about the rise of micro-learning.
Here are the questions currently scheduled to be posted during the chat.

2:07 PM | avspook | Aviation training – greetings from Dubai #GuildChat |
2:07 PM | AjayPangarkar | a1) micro-learn should be ‘micro-apply’ – learning something when you need it and apply it immediately #guildchat |
2:07 PM | chris_benz | Q1) Short bits of content, ideally delivered in a spaced manner to reinforce learning. #GuildChat |
2:07 PM | technkl | A1 Learning how to manipulate the smallest elements in the world. Wait, wrong thing? #guildchat |
2:07 PM | chris_benz | Welcome, Cyndi! #GuildChat https://t.co/W0K1IId2IM |

2:07 PM | LearnovateSA | RT @eLearningGuild: Welcome to #GuildChat, brought to you by @eLearningGuild. Today we’re talking about micro-learning. #elGuild |
2:07 PM | Quinnovator | a1) “…a small but complete learning experience”. But that’s not all that people mean when they use the term ;) #guildchat |
2:07 PM | JD_Dillon | A1) Topical, contextual content that can be consumed quickly within the workflow #guildchat |
2:07 PM | gailfus | Micro-learning is learning in small bites, good for on-the-spot learning. 1 or 2 short concepts covered. Can be serialized. #GuildChat |
2:08 PM | colinwelch | A1) Or small prices of learning in lots of formats linked in some form of pathway (including on the job learning) #GuildChat |
2:08 PM | avspook | A1) Chunked content in a digestable manner #GuildChat |
2:08 PM | willconstantine | Happy Friday everybody! #GuildChat |
2:08 PM | em825 | #guildchat A1) Short, specific, no fluff. |
2:08 PM | theartofthexpat | RT @Quinnovator: a1) funny, I wrote a post on that: http://t.co/CcyJJHrAHC #guildchat |
2:08 PM | theartofthexpat | RT @eLearningGuild: Q1) What does micro-learning mean to you? #GuildChat |
2:08 PM | LnDDave | A1) Learning in short-focused bursts of time. #GuildChat |
2:08 PM | AjayPangarkar | a1) micro-learn = reinventing the wheel, people micro-learn everyday and every minute #guildchat |
2:08 PM | technkl | A1 Real answer: small bits of content that can stand useful on their own or be grouped into a larger more meangful purpose #guildchat |
2:08 PM | Quinnovator | a1) others can mean ‘spaced’ learning, or mean workflow performance support #guildchat |
2:09 PM | chris_benz | So how is micro-learning different than micro-performance support? Or are they the same thing? #GuildChat https://t.co/CefFQ3Byt9 |
2:09 PM | AjayPangarkar | a1) we’re all micro-learning right now #guildchat |
2:09 PM | britz | A1. Micro-learning is a verb. An internal activity (as is all learning). In this context, small, single focused knowledge gains #guildchat |
2:09 PM | opurt11 | Q1) @britz I prefer “task-based videos,” or “performance-assistance videos.” #guildchat |
2:09 PM | LnDDave | A1) What I find interesting is that much talk of micro-learning is actually describing micro-training. There’s a difference. #GuildChat |
2:09 PM | gailfus | @JD_Dillon C’mon, JD, that’s a textbook-sounding answer. Put some heart and sould into it! LOL #GuildChat |

2:10 PM | willconstantine | Q1) short bites of learning to be used immediately for an immediate need #GuildChat |
2:10 PM | JD_Dillon | I was just gonna say something similar … #GuildChat https://t.co/iVsQqpeDtm |
2:10 PM | Quinnovator | do tell #guildchat https://t.co/CciJxq6USa |

2:10 PM | Minreeva | A1) On-time performance aids to keep on-the-go learners engaged and motivated #guildchat |
2:10 PM | theartofthexpat | RT @colinwelch: A1) Often just in time stuff. Delivered at the point of need #GuildChat |
2:10 PM | CoachCyndi | @LnDDave what’s the difference David? #GuildChat |
2:10 PM | JD_Dillon | So when does it become “micro” again? #GuildChat |
2:10 PM | AjayPangarkar | a1) it means to me more make work for trainers that don’t know what to do next #guildchat |
2:10 PM | amylearning | Participating in my first #GuildChat. |
2:10 PM | gailfus | @JD_Dillon Yes! Start off your weekend completely mentally exhausted instead of just a little! #GuildChat |
2:10 PM | JD_Dillon | Act of consumption as opposed to content creation/strategy … #GuildChat |
2:10 PM | Quinnovator | @AjayPangarkar are we? Or is this a macro learning event spread through micro bytes? think is important for definition #guildchat |
2:10 PM | theartofthexpat | RT @AjayPangarkar: a1) we’re all micro-learning right now #guildchat |
2:10 PM | amylearning | A1) Bite-sized learning, generally accessible when you want it how you want it #GuildChat https://t.co/E10niiVruE |
2:11 PM | chris_benz | Welcome, Amy! #GuildChat https://t.co/s3QSrbLWXu |
2:11 PM | theartofthexpat | RT @Minreeva: A1) On-time performance aids to keep on-the-go learners engaged and motivated #guildchat |
2:11 PM | theartofthexpat | RT @JD_Dillon: Act of consumption as opposed to content creation/strategy … #GuildChat |
2:11 PM | aa_altieri | @LnDDave Agreed. I know people who say a lot, from which I learn very little. Is that micro-learning? #GuildChat |
2:11 PM | technkl | @britz so it plays into self directed learning often I would guess, just what you need when you need it? #guildchat |
2:11 PM | JD_Dillon | @amylearning Welcome to the knowledge party! #Guildchat |
2:11 PM | chris_benz | Ideally, micro-training leads directly to micro-learning. Ideally. #GuildChat |
2:12 PM | pbouffleur | A1) Short, just in time learning that can be immediately applied. #GuildChat |
2:12 PM | AjayPangarkar | @Quinnovator getting too much into the weeds IMHO #guildchat |
2:12 PM | JD_Dillon | Mind … Blown … :-) #GuildChat https://t.co/jI0H3jGTHi |
2:12 PM | eLearningGuild | Q2) What examples of micro-learning have you seen? #GuildChat |
2:12 PM | pbouffleur | RT @aa_altieri: @LnDDave Agreed. I know people who say a lot, from which I learn very little. Is that micro-learning? #GuildChat |
2:12 PM | technkl | RT @eLearningGuild: Q2) What examples of micro-learning have you seen? #GuildChat |
2:12 PM | CandiceCPLP | a1) short bursts of content on a focused topic #guildchat |
2:12 PM | gailfus | @chris_benz Which we all know doesn’t always connect…#GuildChat |
2:12 PM | IOErikaO | A1. It means giving respecting that people experience information overload #guildchat |
2:12 PM | LnDDave | @CoachCyndi Micro-Learning is learning in short bursts; Structuring instruction in short bursts is really micro-training. #GuildChat |
2:12 PM | opurt11 | Q1) @chris_benz “Micro-learning” implies both that learning is taking place, and that it is the intent. Neither need be true. #guildchat |
2:12 PM | britz | @technkl Take just what I need and move on #guildchat |
2:13 PM | Quinnovator | RT @eLearningGuild: Q2) What examples of micro-learning have you seen? #GuildChat |
2:13 PM | LnDDave | RT @aa_altieri: @LnDDave Agreed. I know people who say a lot, from which I learn very little. Is that micro-learning? #GuildChat |
2:13 PM | chris_benz | Like I said, ideally. ;-O #GuildChat https://t.co/uoUCSOkqc1 |
2:13 PM | TrainingDailyAv | RT @amylearning: A1) Bite-sized learning, generally accessible when you want it how you want it #GuildChat https://t.co/E10niiVruE |
2:13 PM | AlwaysBreaking | A1) To me micro-learning is any small bit of info I can pick-up in a few minutes or less. Doesn’t have to be performance support. #GuildChat |
2:13 PM | AjayPangarkar | @aa_altieri @LnDDave micro-learning is what you take away and can use a later point, even if you learn little #guildchat |
2:13 PM | theartofthexpat | A1: thought, comment, application in under a minute … @eLearningGuild http://t.co/Eu1BYXupGb #nomadnote @eLearningGuild #GuildChat |
2:13 PM | britz | RT @eLearningGuild: Q2) What examples of micro-learning have you seen? #GuildChat |
2:13 PM | LnDDave | Welcome to #GuildChat! http://t.co/gtm7DAuCft |
2:13 PM | technkl | @britz and dammit take some initiative and find what you need when you need it (learned helplessness of learning :-) #guildchat |
2:13 PM | willconstantine | RT @eLearningGuild: Q2) What examples of micro-learning have you seen? #GuildChat |
2:13 PM | opurt11 | Q2) I used a YouTube video to try to change the string on my weed whacker. Didn’t work, but I tried. #guildchat |
2:13 PM | theartofthexpat | RT @eLearningGuild: Q2) What examples of micro-learning have you seen? #GuildChat |
2:14 PM | AjayPangarkar | a2) really, nothing to ever write home about… #guildchat |
2:14 PM | AjayPangarkar | a2) really, nothing to ever write home about… #guildchat |
2:14 PM | colinwelch | A2) User generated how to videos on YouTube #GuildChat |
2:14 PM | willconstantine | Q2) I’ve seen a few short Techsmith videos in my feed and sometimes I use it #GuildChat |
2:14 PM | britz | A2. I learn much in short, focused conversations – Micro-(social) learning #guildchat |
2:15 PM | CharlesGouldUK | A1) Most of what I learn these days is probably micro – fleeting insights, grains of knowledge accumulated throughout the day #guildchat |
2:15 PM | LnDDave | RT @eLearningGuild: Q2) What examples of micro-learning have you seen? #GuildChat |
2:15 PM | JD_Dillon | A2) When learning piano, I used short videos to progress through a song – not the entire song at once #GuildChat https://t.co/d1XtaZvA9o |
2:15 PM | opurt11 | Q2) Adobe uses a micro-learning approach to cover the features in a new Captivate release. #guildchat |
2:15 PM | CandiceCPLP | A2) embedded help videos, podcasts. Sometimes hard to tell diff btwn ‘learning’ and simple communications. #guildchat |
2:15 PM | aa_altieri | a2) Would those silly little bits at the end of GI joe cartoons count as micro-learning? #guildchat |
2:15 PM | chris_benz | A2) I regularly use YouTube for tasks around the house, although the quality of the instructional videos is all over the board. #GuildChat |
2:15 PM | LnDDave | RT @colinwelch: A2) User generated how to videos on YouTube #GuildChat |
2:15 PM | colinwelch | A2) I’ve seen some good AR product demos – e.g HP one on how to change a printer cartridge – superimposed on the actual printer #GuildChat |
2:15 PM | AjayPangarkar | a2) good ‘how-to’ DIY videos on stuff I needed to do in the house #guildchat |
2:15 PM | amylearning | A2) Podcasts and YouTube are great examples of on-demand learning bites #GuildChat https://t.co/f92j7jtJqU |
2:15 PM | LnDDave | RT @willconstantine: Q2) I’ve seen a few short Techsmith videos in my feed and sometimes I use it #GuildChat |
2:15 PM | darlesac | Great blog post @Quinnovator #guildchat https://t.co/06Va0k63UD |
2:15 PM | JD_Dillon | A2) @Axonify (plug) provides the opportunity for daily reinforcement in brief, topical interactions #GuildChat |
2:15 PM | technkl | @LnDDave but it could, people just tend to default to formal is all #guildchat |
2:15 PM | heikan2003 | A2) The app Snapguide is a cool micro learning tool #guildchat |
2:15 PM | robert_dragan | Q2 related – seems to me that the big publishers are avoiding #microcontent. Any opinions #GuildChat? |
2:15 PM | colinwelch | RT @CharlesGouldUK: A1) Most of what I learn these days is probably micro – fleeting insights, grains of knowledge accumulated throughout t… |
2:16 PM | avspook | A2) how to use a phone how to set a camera how to load aircraft softwere #GuildChat |
2:16 PM | pbouffleur | A2) we create short task based videos for our service techs linked to from service documents. #GuildChat |
2:16 PM | Quinnovator | a2) many seem like performance support, not learning: DIY YouTubes may help you get job done but not necessarily learn #guildchat |
2:16 PM | JD_Dillon | A2) Brief blog summaries that provide very specific tips, quickly consumed, as opposed to long-form articles #GuildChat |
2:16 PM | LnDDave | A2) I’ve seen some great applications of short how to videos embedded into work processes. “Need to know more? Click here.” #GuildChat |
2:16 PM | em825 | A2) Articulate Storyline2 tutorials are effective #GuildChat |
2:16 PM | JaneBozarth | @chris_benz but there’s a lesson there. how do you choose the YouTube that suits you/is best to learn from? #guildchat |
2:16 PM | britz | A2) Immediate feedback I give my son upon watching his swim stroke, which he applies #guildchat |
2:16 PM | opurt11 | Q2) @JD_Dillon This is a key point. M-L works particularly well with auto-didacts. Not so well with those requiring more help. #guildchat |
2:16 PM | AjayPangarkar | a2)not about the ‘tool’ it is about the design/delivery of learning – I use a hammer to put in a screw, doesn’t mean it’s right #guildchat |
2:17 PM | amylearning | Love how many people are referencing @YouTube as #microlearning. Performance support in daily life! #GuildChat |
2:17 PM | PatriceKiraly | RT @Quinnovator: do tell #guildchat https://t.co/CciJxq6USa |
2:17 PM | pbouffleur | @LnDDave Exactly the application that we’re using! #GuildChat |
2:17 PM | em825 | @colinwelch I agree, I don’t care about fancy production, just clear, accurate answers/instructions. #GuildChat |
2:17 PM | TrainingDailyAv | A2) Video infographics sometimes – short data insights #GuildChat |
2:17 PM | robert_dragan | A2: short youtube videos, blog posts, even a quick search on google can be micro-learning #GuildChat |
2:17 PM | avspook | agreed @LnDDave #GuildChat |
2:17 PM | JD_Dillon | RT @LnDDave: A2) I’ve seen some great applications of short how to videos embedded into work processes. “Need to know more? Click here.” #G… |
2:17 PM | colinwelch | A2) interesting that lots of people are citing DIY videos. Crowdsourced content is becoming a more accepted part of learning #GuildChat |
2:17 PM | technkl | A2 those cool little menu’s that tell you move about the option you’r trying to choose, WordPress in my situation #guildchat |
2:18 PM | LnDDave | @technkl Much of the gap between potential and reality rests in the default. #GuildChat |
2:18 PM | heikan2003 | @AjayPangarkar I agree with that. The delivery that is best for me is visual. #guildchat |
2:18 PM | TrainingDailyAv | RT @robert_dragan: A2: short youtube videos, blog posts, even a quick search on google can be micro-learning #GuildChat |
2:18 PM | colinwelch | RT @amylearning: Love how many people are referencing @YouTube as #microlearning. Performance support in daily life! #GuildChat |
2:18 PM | opurt11 | Q2) @colinwelch Yes, but is that b/c it’s that good, or that much cheaper to produce? #guildchat |
2:18 PM | DonaldClark | #guildchat A1 Spaced practice is turbo-charged micro-learning |
2:18 PM | chris_benz | #GuildChat Would hints/tooltips in software UIs count? |
2:18 PM | JD_Dillon | A2) Users can define micro-learning opportunities using flexible content however they want – take what they need #GuildChat |
2:18 PM | IOErikaO | A2.In element school they’d ask a Q of the week like What did dinosaurs eat? you’d spend the week answering. would that count #GuildChat |
2:19 PM | gailfus | @heikan2003 @AjayPangarkar I prefer to read. Blogs work really well for me. #GuildChat |
2:19 PM | technkl | Sometimes even YouTube is too bulky, it’s hard to find the part you want & isn’t searchable, depends on need though I guess #GuildChat |
2:19 PM | chris_benz | The lesson I learned from YouTube is that some of the suggestions can get you killed. Caveat emptor! #GuildChat https://t.co/u7BSPKlgLQ |
2:19 PM | LnDDave | A2) I also like the Screenr format. You get 5 minutes. That gives you enough time to demo the solving of ONE problem. #GuildChat |
2:19 PM | gailfus | @chris_benz I think so…#GuildChat |
2:19 PM | eLearningGuild | Q3) Why has micro-learning become such a popular topic today? #GuildChat |
2:19 PM | technkl | RT @eLearningGuild: Q3) Why has micro-learning become such a popular topic today? #GuildChat |

2:20 PM | opurt11 | @AjayPangarkar Are you really helping people learn, or just showing how to use one tool? What would actually serve them best? #guildchat |
2:20 PM | AlwaysBreaking | A3) No one has time. A day of training is too much time away from work. #GuildChat |
2:20 PM | AjayPangarkar | a2) is the IKEA instructions a micro-learn or micro-nightmare ;) #guildchat |
2:20 PM | aa_altieri | @chris_benz No. If we do, then we have to consider that MS Office Paperclip as micro-learning!! #guildchat |
2:20 PM | robert_dragan | Not necessarily. You acquire new info and skills. Learning comes under many forms, not just academic #GuildChat https://t.co/9AW65SYpqe |
2:20 PM | amylearning | @Quinnovator if a DIY YouTuber modifies behavior so the desired outcome is achcieved, isn’t that learning? #GuildChat |
2:20 PM | JaneBozarth | @willconstantine @chris_benz and why that 1? #guildchat |
2:20 PM | colinwelch | A3) #GuildChat Because technology now allows people to access bite sized pieces of information everywhere… |
2:20 PM | technkl | A3 because formal learning is too big and cumpersom and unneeded. Small pieces of content generated by the people is more useful #GuildChat |
2:20 PM | JD_Dillon | A3) Users are requiring specific, contextual support – tech enables – awareness of brain science #GuildChat https://t.co/g8WyzzIelF |
2:20 PM | LnDDave | It’s a fine line I think. Tooltips can solve a performance problem without any real learning taking place. #GuildChat http://t.co/lKL3zd0qEP |
2:20 PM | colinwelch | A3) …and our attention spans are rubbish these days! #GuildChat |
2:20 PM | heikan2003 | A3) I hope it is because we realized the brain can’t hold 4 straight days of ppt training. #guildchat |
2:20 PM | DonaldClark | #GuildChat A2 Twitter, Blogs, Wikipedia, Ads, quotes, spaced-practice – NOT Hodgkin’s reusable learning objects! |
2:20 PM | JaneBozarth | .@willconstantine @chris_benz side lesson in vanity metrics: The YouTube with the most views might just be the oldest. #guildchat |
2:21 PM | avspook | A3) lifting of the bandwidth fence – & software for self construction – less time more data #GuildChat |
2:21 PM | britz | A3. There’s an increasing desire for learning closer to/ within the work we do vs. outside of it. Micro-learning supports this #guildchat |
2:21 PM | AjayPangarkar | a3) it’s popular b/c people are challenge for time & under tremendous pressure to deliver results #guildchat |

2:22 PM | gailfus | A3) More people have access to mobile devices that support it. Learn a thing in 15 min while waiting for doctor or train or bus. #GuildChat |
2:23 PM | aa_altieri | a3) It’s a new term de jour. But Micro-learning has been around since the days of schoolhouse Rock #guildchat |
2:23 PM | technkl | In most cases no. Only if you have to memorize something (how often is that?). Performance support is usually sufficient #GuildChat |
2:23 PM | marklearns | @LnDDave Same with Jing. It forced me to be concise and discrete in what I wanted to share. #guildchat |

2:23 PM | DonaldClark | #GuildChat A3 Because psychology of learning screams at us – ‘less is more’ and ‘more of less & often’ increases retention (spaced-practice) |
2:23 PM | LnDDave | A3) Technological advances have removed the barriers to both creation and consumption of microlearning. #GuildChat |
2:23 PM | ColeJ_L | A3) One reason is because attention spans are shortening #GuildChat |

2:24 PM | MrMiNiKi | @LnDDave Hi David. Nick from UK and my first time here at #GuildChat. Is micro-learning time-focused? |
2:24 PM | JD_Dillon | @Quinnovator But I want mobile social big data micro-learning in my LMS!!! #GuildChat |
2:24 PM | Quinnovator | a3) micro, rapid, it’s all promise of doing more with less. Are real reason to be excited: less that’s more focused, but be wary #guildchat |

2:25 PM | britz | @CandiceCPLP agreed that some learning must be deeper. The choice of what and how much depends on the need #guildchat |
2:25 PM | AjayPangarkar | a3) lack of time #guildchat |
2:25 PM | LnDDave | Time-bound is definitely an element of micro-learning. I believe a constrained context is as well. #GuildChat http://t.co/0kyF3KGcHd |

2:26 PM | technkl | @TriciaRansom It’s all about micro-learning #guildchat |
2:26 PM | CandiceCPLP | Many who ask me for videos/microlearning don’t understand how difficult they are to create. Like a 2-minute speech vs 2 hour. #guildchat |
2:26 PM | Quinnovator | a4) best micro learning is contextualized, because presence of context means we can assume that and do less #guildchat |
2:26 PM | theartofthexpat | Not place-focused? Big change in the use and need… #GuildChat @MrMiNiKi @LnDDave |
