Consider two scenarios in the evolving flow of work: scalable training for rapidly changing products and time-pressed professionals; implement microlearning quick to consume and available at the point of performance.
Design microlearning for the evolving flow of work by delivering short, task-focused content that informs, instructs, and enables on-demand performance at the point of need.
Identify six criteria for microlearning formats in the evolving flow of work: point of need structure, visual strategy, task engagement, just-in-time performance impact, quick production, and access on multiple devices.
Explore the five info-learning formats that qualify for point-of-need learning in the evolving flow of work, including explainer videos, infographics, software simulations, flowcharts, and quick reference guides.
Design microlearning explainer videos that onboard users in the flow of work. Highlight the problem, the solution, how it works, and a call to action in a two-to-four minute format.
Design explainer videos by weaving a storyline, hooking attention, and keeping content relevant to the context. Write like you talk, infuse humor, and practice micro-writing for succinctness.
Explore a sample explainer video script in a visual storyboard format to show how elements come together for microlearning, with downloadable storyboard samples and a script template.
Explore production formats for info-learning explainer videos, including 2D character animation, whiteboard animation, and live action, using DIY tools for low-cost microlearning in the evolving flow of work.
Learn how infographics function as concise micro resources for point-of-need learning, offering visual storytelling, clear goals, audience focus, and simple design for rapid onboarding in the evolving flow of work.
Design microlearning for the evolving flow of work informs and instructs on a single task at point of need, using five formats—explainer videos, infographics, software simulations, flowcharts, and interactive documents.
Design microlearning for the evolving flow of work by using software simulations to enable point-of-need learning and support, through the demo show me mode and the interactive try it mode.
Design software simulations with Adobe Captivate using show me, try it, and test me modes to deliver microlearning through screen recording and point-of-need training within evolving work workflows.
Explore how interactive documents in PDF format transform static reading into multimedia point of need learning and performance support, offering dual modes of onboarding and quick access within the workflow.
Use Adobe InDesign to produce interactive documents in pdf and epub, compare pdf's limited interactivity and mobile compatibility with epub's reflowable and fixed layout formats for point-of-need info-learning.
Learn to apply the point of need strategy by scoping scenarios, selecting suitable info-learning formats with the selection matrix, and applying universal design guidelines for microlearning.
Apply four design guidelines for point of need resources to enhance performance by using contextual task-specific design, micro design, and accessible workflow integration.
Learn to design point-of-need microlearning using software simulations (show me and try it) and flowcharts, and create interactive documents with Captivate, Visio, and InDesign for learning and performance support.
Are you struggling to keep pace with the demand for quick learning content production in an evolving environment? Is your business environment changing every few months requiring an update to the courses or content you just produced?
If you answered yes to either of these questions, allow me to introduce you to microlearning for the evolving flow of work.
This course will help you understand the requirements and success factors of microlearning for the evolving flow of work and reorient you to five micro 'info-learning' formats that effectively deliver to the business requirement of low-cost/effort production and on-demand availability.
The five micro info-learning formats that will be covered in this course are, Explainer Videos, Infographics, Software Simulations, Flowcharts, and Interactive Documents. We will deep dive into the content design fundamentals of each of these formats and learn specific use cases of utilizing them to enable microlearning for the flow of work. We will also go through a decision-making matrix designed to help you select the right info-learning format based on your scenario.
Participants will walk away with ready-to-use templates and job aids, which will help them with rapid design of these formats and achieve faster turnaround time for making them available to the target audience.
