micro-CaseStudy : how to make sense fast and with limited information?
So here is one experiment in my quest to help the overwhelmed learner by learning through micro-moments: micro-CaseStudies.
Most micro-learning to date is actually micro-content. In October I'll experiment with a specific form of content: case studies. Mostly business schools use this method of teaching. So I've been thinking: what does a micro-learning version of a case study look like?
Here's how it looks like in my experiment:
- You start by getting a role in a situation and a task (usually about making a decision)
- Then you get an immediate provocative question to 'get into it'
- This is followed by 5-7 snippets of information or perspectives and links for further reading (this can be research, a blog post, etc)
- Ultimately you need to discuss in small groups (up to 4) what your decision will be
- And then there is an afterthought (which can be what really happened if the case is based on a real scenario, or further research or questions to consider)
I'll use this concept at the upcoming ILA Conference in Brussels where I'll host table sessions on 'A Reality Check: How do we Lead in Times of Artificial Intelligence?'. I made 5 micro-casestudies and I'll deliver them with the Klaxoon presentation and polling tool.
