Traditional Learning and Microlearning are different, each having its own pros and cons.
Microlearning is a very effective way to deliver training and I would like to show you how Microlearning can overcome the drawbacks of Traditional training through E-learning to manage their training effectively.
1.Traditionally, content is mostly available in long form formats – be it text-based, videos or audios Which is usually consumed by the learner only once. However in microlearning, units of information are acquired – multiple times – in the form of shorter audio-visual, graphics, e-books, etc. whenever there is a “need to learn” or go back to a piece of information.
2. Traditional training is limited to a certain place, time and No. of people, through Microlearning we can train global learners without additional cost like travel, stay etc. From a traditional viewpoint, a learner has to sit through long lectures or presentations. Microlearning, on the other hand, allows learners to take short courses at their convenience.
3. Updates and changes can be done quickly in Microlearning
4. Traditional learning makes the learner dull and they don’t motivate learners whereas with Microlearning you can motivate learners with stunning visuals, audio narration, gaming interactivities, and videos.
5. Traditional learning depends upon the trainer’s performance and emotional state whereas with E-learning is not and will give learners the same learning platform without any imbalances. It gives learners freedom to create their own learning path.
Now you can see how Microlearning is an effective way for organizational training to improve employee productivity. It is accessible from anywhere anytime to train your global workforce. Traditional training lacks the freedom to learners to learn, accessibility, flexibility and it increase the organizational cost. All these issues can be solved with the help of Microlearning.
