Microlearning is an easy way to learn information in small blocks. This can either be directly, or over time - with the cards being available at set times.
Finding Public Microlearning Courses
If Microlearning is enabled in your Academy, as a learner, you might want to take a Microlearning course that is open for everyone. These can easily be found in your Catalog!
In the left navigation, make sure you are in the Learner Workspace.
When in the Learner Workspace, select Training and then Catalog. This gives you an overview of all available training that you can enroll in.
All available Microlearning courses you are not enrolled in can be found here under the Microlearning tab.
Taking a Microlearning Course
Your current Microlearning courses, whether you self-enrolled or got them assigned to you, are found under My Training.
When you are in the Learner Workspace, click on Training and then select My Training.
In the Training in Progress stream, you can see your active Microlearning.
If you have a lot of trainings in progress, you can go to the In Progress tab and filter on Microlearning to only see the Microlearning courses you are currently enrolled in.
Going to the Quick View will tell you how many cards are in the deck, how many skills it is connected to, and when the cards go live. In this current example, there are only four cards in the deck, with two being made available each day - meaning you can finish this Microlearning course in two days.
Click on Launch Microlearning to open the course.
There are four kinds of Microlearning cards: Text, images, questions, and stacks. Text and images are for you to study, questions need to be answered, and stacks are like flashcards that have text/image combined with a question.
You can flip through the cards using the arrows. To answer a question, click on the answer you think is correct. It will immediately give you feedback.
Stack questions will show in a different color. If you get an answer wrong, you can guess again.
Cards that are unavailable at the moment will show you a timer and let you know when they go live.
When you finished your Microlearning, you also can get progress towards the skills it is connected to.
