### So why is it so complicated ?
- Please share your thoughts with us

### Micro-learning : a definition
*"Microlearning refers to any pedagogy that encourages learning in short segments, and it can be supported through many platforms, including social media."* ([see Stefanie Trowbridge et al. Learning in Bursts: Microlearning with Social Media, 2017](https://er.educause.edu/articles/2017/4/learning-in-bursts-microlearning-with-social-media))

### Micro-learning : misunderstandings
- Misunderstanding #1: Microlearning is chunked content.
- Misunderstanding #2: Microlearning is video based and must be less than 3 minutes ([Shannon Tipton, 2017](https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/microlearning-misunderstood-buzzword-shannon-tipton/))
... Could it help us be more convincing about FAIR principles?
---
### Micro-learning : digital VS analog
---
### Micro-learning : an application
- [Private companies](https://playxlpro.com/five-thoughtful-examples-of-microlearning-in-pharma-and-healthcare-sector/):
- onboarding (Amgen)
- staff safety procedure training (Merck)
- Learning languages:
- [Duolingo](https://www.duolingo.com/)
- [Chinese Skill app](https://http://www.chinese-skill.com/cs.html)
- Universities and information literacy:
- [Infotrack@UNIGE](https://infotrack.unige.ch/)
- ZB Med and their chat
Not always developed as "micro-learning"

### An EPFL example
---
### Micro-learning : some tipps and tricks
- should not take too much time (months) to create it
- should not take too much time to consume
- one idea, one concept
- immediately applicable
- device/set up agnostic
- accessible (see [Shannon Tipton, 2017](https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/microlearning-misunderstood-buzzword-shannon-tipton/))
---
### Your task for the next 45 minutes
(it's a WORKshop so you will WORK)
- Form a group with 4 other people to form a group of 5
- Find a topic related to the FAIR principles that you would like to be able to showcase in a microlearning sequence
- Work on a concept for a microlearning sequence
---
### Your task for the next 45 minutes
- The concept should have an explicit "key message"
- Think about your audience : does it work with all audiences ? Who are you planning to using it with ?
- What is the delivery of the microlearning sequence ? Online, analog, other forms ?
- When can it be used ? Are there prerequisites?
---
### Vernissage / Launch your concept :cocktail:
- Display your concept and give a 1 minute pitch !
---
### Questions and comments
