Instructional design is a core competency for educators in the digital age. A study involving 1023 Italian teachers indicated that, while many harness digital tools, a significant number primarily use them to store and share materials on cloud services or PCs, often following a linear lesson outline. Integrating technology into the teaching paradigm can profoundly enhance educational outcomes. Yet, for optimal results, this integration must be approached with deliberate, pedagogical foresight, emphasizing an ecosystemic, context-aware, and dynamic methodology. This ensures students are actively engaged, fostering a more collaborative and interactive learning environment. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

A new report discusses research conducted at Shiraz University of Medical Sciences on the effectiveness of social media-based microlearning (SMBM) in improving knowledge, self-efficacy, and self-care behaviors among adult patients with type 2 diabetes. The study was conducted from September 2021 to the end of 2022, with an intervention group (SMBM) and a control group (conventional-based training). The results showed that after the intervention, the levels of knowledge, self-care, and self-efficacy in the intervention group were significantly higher than those in the control group. The research concludes that SMBM appears to be an effective tool for improving self-efficacy, self-care, and knowledge among patients with type 2 diabetes. [Extracted from the article]

A recent report from the University of Illinois highlights the challenges faced by racially/ethnically diverse families of autistic children in accessing services and support. These families often struggle to maintain attendance in parent training interventions due to structural barriers and limited resources. The researchers propose the use of the microlearning concept, which breaks down culturally responsive interventions into smaller, more manageable pieces, to reach caregivers who are juggling caregiving and other challenges. The study discusses the process of adapting a community-based intervention using the microlearning approach and explores its potential applications and limitations. [Extracted from the article]

We plan to deploy this new microlearning option of our hazard communication and caregiver compliance training to all existing caregivers, providers, and volunteers. Through interviews, we uncovered that caregivers were dissatisfied with annual caregiver compliance training. Traditional learning modalities such as classroom-based, instructor-led training fail to meet this busy workforce's needs. So, while microlearning is not the silver bullet for all training, it is one instrument in our L&D toolkit that enables us to provide just-in-time, personalized learning.
