Convert "Microlearning" to a "Course"
I've developed an entire training piece under a "microlearning" content, however I now want to have the same info included in a "course" format. How can I quickly change the format?
I am very excited about this feature! I would like to be able to combine multiple microlearning courses into a single course, similar to how a book is divided into chapters. This would allow learners to complete a section or learning program by completing all of the microlearning courses within it.
I believe this would be a valuable feature for several reasons. First, it would make it easier for learners to find and access the information they need. Second, it would allow learners to learn at their own pace and in a way that best suits their learning style. Third, it would help learners to stay motivated and engaged in the learning process.
I would be grateful if you would consider adding this feature to your product. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Hi,
Combining multiple microlearning courses into a single course = a traditional Rise course,
Yes, it may appear that way. But reason for this is - Learners find it difficult to find all the microlearning courses related to a topic, in spite of appropriate naming conventions, microlearning courses if not grouped together may get lost in the LMS.
Not only that - there is also the psychological aspect.
A learner is more likely to willingly participate in a single 20-minute-course, than in 10 two-minute-courses. Especially, if the courses are mandatory.
Having a seemingly endless list of courses to work on is not ideal for motivation.
Noob Question: if you have one microlearning course that is rolled into multiple different training courses, does updating the "source" microlearning course also update it in all courses, or would you have to replace the updated microlearning course in each manually?
For example, let's say one of the microlearning modules is how to log in for a first-time user, but there are eight different user roles that have a variety of courses combined in different configurations, each of which contains the "login" microlearning. If the password requirement changes, can I make that update once in the source module, or do I need to update it everywhere it is re-used?
Hi Anthony,
There is no connection between any Rise courses or microlearnings. The content for all courses is unique and there is no sharing.
Any updates you make in one course or microlearning, affects only that single resource.
So if the same content exist multiple times in other courses and microlearning's, you need to update each one individually.
Agree with Mahendra! I found my learners prefer the navigation in the microlearning courses, compared to same contents in classic Rise layout. Will be perfect if it is possible to combine several microlearning courses into a single Rise course.
Please consider this for future roadmap. thanks!
