Lesson Two: Why Microlearning Works
Why Microlearning Works.mp4Microlearning works because it’s designed to align with how our brains naturally learn and retain information. Here’s why it’s so effective:
Microlearning enables frequent, spaced reviews of small pieces of content.
Reviewing information at intervals (1 day, 3 days, 7 days) strengthens memory right before it’s forgotten.
This “refreshes” neural pathways and builds long-term retention.
The short, consistent nature of microlearning helps form learning habits.
Daily engagement creates memory “anchors” that reduce long-term forgetting.
In order to combat the forgetting curve learners must retain information via revision. Consisten revision shortens the curve and increases information retention over time.
Each review strengthens neural connections.
Over time, the information moves from short-term to long-term memory.
Eventually, you no longer need to review as often to remember.
Microlearning naturally supports this model by:
Delivering frequent short bursts of content.
Making spaced repetition easy and engaging.
Helping learners revisit key points before forgetting sets in.
