I remember my first mobile phone: brick-sized, big antenna and weighing around 400 grams. Then I got my first clasp phone and it seemed tiny and awesome. My current phone is slim, light and wonderful. My first computer was a Pentium 3 and took almost all the dorm table. You can already see where this is going – laptop, thinner laptop, tablet. Truth be told, if we aren’t talking about living space or virgin forests, smaller means progress. It is also the case with how we learn.
Micro learning is already established as the wonder child of the online education industry. A normal response to the spectacular growth of mobile learning and an antidote to lack of time and resources in the workplace, bite-sized learning can prove the perfect solution for employees. In our fast-paced, technology driven lives, we are permanently flooded with information and communication.
