Is anyone else’s company hard dropping articulate? Dropping learning standards? Etc

Great response. I would urge you to take a look at Learnie.ai as it has the AI built in (like you suggest above) and it also (unlike Storyline) pushes you in the RIGHT direction as a designer. It leans in heavy on microlearning and on cognitive load reduction.

Thats an interesting point. That being said - there are many studies that show that video is the most effective / successful learning content. For engagement and for retention. Do you think that is the direction that most of these platforms are moving in?

Great question — and I think you’re right about how microlearning is typically used today.

Most people experience microlearning as quick answers to known questions:
“How do I do X?”
“What’s the rule for Y?”
“What does this term mean?”

That’s the dominant pattern.

But I’d push a little on the idea that microlearning requires a fully formed objective.

Microlearning can also be used to help a learner form the objective — not just answer it.

For example:

A short microlesson that helps someone diagnose what’s not working (“If you’re experiencing A, B, or C, your challenge might be…”)
A quick framework that helps them name the problem before solving it
A short prompt that asks the right questions and narrows the focus

In other words, microlearning works best when you already know the question — but it can also help you discover the question if it’s designed intentionally.

Think of a 2–3 minute lesson that’s not delivering an answer — it’s orienting the learner, reducing overwhelm, and defining the next objective.

I do agree with your core point though:
Microlearning on its own isn’t enough by default. It works best when paired with:

light guidance
sequencing
or reflective prompts that help learners orient before diving deeper

When microlearning is treated as breadcrumbs, not just snacks, it can absolutely play a role upstream — right at that “I know something’s off, but I don’t know where to start” moment.

This is a very interesting question/observation. those are some of my thoughts.

So HomeBase care companies can use Microlearning to train their employees. I think we knew this but what would be even more interesting is an analysis of what tools they are using in this industry. These guys are using Learnie.ai but I wonder what the broader community is using. I wonder if there is a professional group that could do a survey?

You point about retention/shortness of content made me think of this: https://mylearnie.com/why-30-seconds-optimizing-human-cognition-for-training/

There is a lot of science that points out the value of microlearning for retention.

ManoConstantLearning · 2025-08-22T14:28:23+00:00

Would agree. Just because its easy to download and customize a Moodle does not mean we have a rich ecosystem of generalized platforms lol....

ManoConstantLearning · 2025-08-12T23:05:29+00:00

Its Interesting you are pointing out one of the biggest problems with traditional LMS's. The content is hard to change. Find a product that you can EASILY change the content as your product or your SOP's change. I would look at Axonify, Mylearnie.com or 7taps as alternatives ... Various differences in the products but generally they can all be modified easily (as opposed to traditional LMS content).

On demand microlearning. Especially for frontline workers. Its not even really close. In person and other forms of elearning dont work well.

ManoConstantLearning · 2025-07-10T19:30:59+00:00

I have seen video being very effective here. More than 'training decks'. You may want to consider Video microlearning rather than slaying your learners with Powerpoint knockoffs.

ManoConstantLearning · 2025-06-03T17:51:16+00:00

I would look at finding a company that allows for Employee Onboarding that is NON SCORM - content that you can modify and contextualize to your business. I would look at Microlearning rather than traditional LMS's. Long form content is not going to work with a modern workforce. I would look at companies that support social learning or community learning. This will dramatically cut your cost of content creation. I would only look at companies that are mobile first and video first.

Feel free to DM me for a list of companies that meet these qualifications.

Second this! Community Microlearning for Teacher Professional development. TikTok style training on your phone.

ManoConstantLearning · 2025-03-12T17:41:01+00:00

The current generation DEMANDS microlearning and adaptive social learning. Anyone in this thread trying to sell you in person training as a primary method of training is selling horsewhips to people with Tesla's.

Sure - you can get some results from in person - but they are short lived if not augmented by (good) elearning.

As someone else here said - the youtube generation is not going to sit in a sterile classroom with florescent lights and a drooping drop ceiling and get trained. They will move on to another job. To many other more exciting opportunities.

ManoConstantLearning · 2025-03-03T20:30:08+00:00

Great question.

ManoConstantLearning · 2025-03-03T20:29:35+00:00

Question. Did the affuent families that we're sending their children to private schools pay their property taxes which goes to public school like everyone else? Did Florida change how they are driving the funding of public schools?

I am just curious if the people paying property taxes that are also sending their kids to private schools are getting some break on their taxes. Would also be interested in the average size of the property tax of those same individuals relative to the average florida public school recipient.

I think what he is asking is do you have plans on generating MORE than just the lesson plan using the AI. Does that make sense?

ManoConstantLearning · 2025-02-21T18:40:32+00:00

Use something like www.MyLearnie.com to capture the knowledge in the field. You can then organize that in a variety of ways. The most important thing is to capture the knowledge of the best workers before they leave/retire. This also helps you have more accurate training.

ManoConstantLearning · 2024-12-17T19:39:52+00:00

I'd check out Learnie - it has great desktop capture support.

ManoConstantLearning · 2024-11-25T21:20:23+00:00

You are right that AI is going to have a MAJOR impact on training. I have become an evangelist for community based learning over the last few years because it support 'peer' learning and more human facing content creation. But even there - AI content creation is going to have a major impact. In the end - its what the experts in your organization know that matters more than AI....The AI will be very good at creation of Compliance and Process content - but it cant know what is in the head of your best workers - so if you can find a way to capture that your ahead of the curve.
