What's Adaptive Microlearning?

Adaptive Mobile Microlearning combines the science of Adaptive Learning with the delivery mechanism of Mobile technology, to deliver training for Knowledge Retention.  This  is truly individualized learning.  Adaptive Mobile Microlearning algorithms give each Learner what s/he needs, on a continuous basis.  Here's how it works: 

• The business decides which content each Learner needs and at what level of Mastery
• Through Adaptive AI algorithms, Learners get repeated, spaced exposure to their content, over time
• As Mastery improves in a topic area, the Learner sees that content less frequently   
• If Mastery has not yet been evidenced (or a refresher is desirable,) the Learner sees increasingly more content on the topic, more often
• Our partner vendors' platforms apply "forgetting pressure" to decrement a Learner's mastery over time.   AI Technology provides the Learner with personalized activities to prevent mastery loss as well as to regain "lost" mastery.   This continual prompting, refreshing and re-situating of informational "nuggets" ensures long-term retention

The platforms' algorithms adjust automatically, re-calibrating every time the Learner is engaged. This is mobile training software designed for learning measurement and individualized learning.

We Change the Conversation

When you talk to traditional eLearning Instructional Designers, the discussion will start with your course content. 

​When you work with micro-Maestros however,  we will start the conversation from the back end.  We'll want to talk about the business results you are trying to achieve with your Learning initiative.    From those metrics, we can back into how to re-orchestrate your existing course content to achieve your KPI improvements. Learning measurement via Adaptive Mobile Microlearning will change the employee behaviors that impact your KPIs.

Our Mobile Microlearning Solutions Free Up Your Resources

Our Adaptive Mobile Microlearning Solutions bring 2-minute lessons into your Learners' daily workflow, no scheduling required.  The Learning platform reminds the Learner and delivers relevant content to their mobile devices, while engaging them in fun Activities, daily.   Learning content continues to be instantly available to the Learner during the workday as well, whenever a reference or refresher is needed. 

Adaptive Mobile Microlearning Turns "Onboarding" into "Everboarding"

Learning science shows that few learners recall content after a single exposure.  They need repeated exposure over time and in different contexts to be able to store new information in long-term memory. Traditional eLearning simply is not designed that way.   

Adaptive Mobile Microlearning turns onboarding and annual compliance training into  "everboarding" --  mobile training that becomes a continuous process for the learner.

Will Adaptive Microlearning Appeal to a Multi-Generational Workforce?

Yes!  Adaptive Mobile Microlearning Delivers the Personalized Learning That Engages Them.  Our Adaptive Microlearning works for a multigenerational learner pool. A report by Training Industry found that adult learners’ preferences varied by training topic and purpose — not by age. Across age groups, more than half of learners rated mobile learning and job aids as effective for customer service, onboarding, and technical training.

​In a recent LinkedIn study, more than half the respondents (56%) reported that they’re changing policies to increase appeal to a multigenerational workforce — including efforts to retain or lure back older workers. With the youngest cohort of workers projected to make up just over a tenth of the workforce by 2024, according to BLS, companies are trying harder to hold on to Millennial and Gen X workers — those in their 30s, 40s, and 50s — as well.

The Challenge for Employers

When a multigenerational workforce is paired with rapidly changing job needs, finding mobile training software that suits all workers at all ages and experience levels can be a challenge.  According to the Deloitte 2019 Global Human Capital Trends report, the challenge is to "integrate ongoing learning into the flow of life — or the flow of work. The solution must not only be embedded into the ways in which we work, but the ways in which we live.”

Designing your content for the Millennials actually meets the needs of all the generations, according to recent studies.  Some characteristics that are common across the generations are those supported by Microlearning:

• Be tech-savvy like the Millennials themselves.    Where Twitter might be the best collaborative platform for one course, consider other technologies for other courses.
• Use Visual Stimuli - infographics, graphic presentations, video 
• Teach flexible processes and methods ​- don't demand that things be done as they "always have been"
• Keep the education coming - Millennials want and expect to have access to regular training and new content 
• Keep content very short - scenario learning or short games 
• Make achievement expectations clear - Millennials want to know upfront how they will be evaluated
• Ensure the mobile training is highly relevant - they have zero tolerance for irrelevant content
• Don't forget the Gamification! - keep the focus on competition, individually and within the group

Adaptive Mobile Microlearning is the Solution

The platforms and Microlearning Methodology used by micro-Maestros deliver targeted content to each Learner, while identifying and eliminating knowledge gaps.  With automated reminders, it nudges Learners to develop and sustain a daily learning habit.  We use platforms that offer spaced practice features which build retention, even while the learning is fun and engaging for all generations.

• Mobile-first, accessible on any device the learner is comfortable using
• Available on demand, making it easy to fit into breaks, downtime, or before a shift begins
• Short and focused, providing quick access to relevant information without disrupting workflow
• Continuous, with learners engaging in frequent brief mobile training sessions rather than setting aside a single block of time for annual training​
