What are microgames, and what benefits can they bring to your corporate training? Here are the 5 most frequently asked questions to help you understand how this Digital Learning solution works.

What are the differences between a microgame and a serious game?

1. Duration: A microgame lasts less than 5 minutes, while a serious game takes at least 15 to 20 minutes.
2. Objective: In a microgame, the learner aims to achieve a single learning objective, whereas a serious game is designed around several pedagogical objectives.
3. Budget: Producing a serious game requires more time and budget than microgames

What are the most popular microgames?

The spectrum is wide, and learners’ preferences depend on their experience with video games, board games, and films. These three main sources of entertainment nourish their imagination with different game mechanics and narrative approaches. The most popular types of microgames include:

• Board games
• Card games
• Challenges
• Missions to complete
• Puzzles and riddles

What makes an effective microgame?

The most effective microgames have a simple mechanism and take place in a creative learning environment. They require an attractive pedagogical scenario and excellent graphic design to make it easy for the learner to achieve the learning objective of the game.

How can you integrate microgames into your employees’ learning path

Microgames are excellent training tools that can be used for onboarding sessions. They can also be added to your existing training courses to make them more attractive and stimulate learner motivation. Microgames are the perfect pedagogical solution for refresher training to remind or reinforce what has been learned. You can also use them as a quick evaluation tool.

What are the benefits of using microgames in corporate training?

Did you know that 70% of Global 2000 companies use gamification? It increases:

• Employee engagement
• Productivity
• Profitability associated with a gamified learning environment

These are the main reasons why gamified e-learning has become so popular.

Microgames are one of the easiest ways to introduce gamification into your training courses. They improve employees’ skills and knowledge retention, stimulate their motivation, and require minimal time investment (less than 5 minutes).

It’s estimated that 80% of workplace gamification efforts fail to achieve corporate objectives due to poor planning, inadequate design, and a lack of creativity and meaning.

Microlearning already has millions of fans. Are you one of them?

It is a learning strategy in which the content is delivered in small, easy-to-manage learning units. It smoothly fits the corporate or educational training programs. And that’s precisely what’s made it so popular. It is also known as “bite-size learning” or “learning snacks” and is considered the perfect just-in-time learning solution.

Small but impactful

The principle behind microlearning is simple: minimize training time and maximize learning results. The aim is to develop knowledge or skills that take less than 5 minutes to assimilate.

How is it possible to train effectively in such a short time and achieve good results?

Is microlearning the right solution for you?

Here are the 3 main contexts of use:

• Perfectly suited to onboarding training, refresher training, upskilling, reskilling, product training, etc.
• Smart tool for knowledge and skills reminder
• Excellent way to revitalize your existing training courses

What does microlearning actually look like?

Learners follow one or more very short yet impactful e-learning modules. Each module helps them achieve one learning objective at a time. The higher the content quality of the module (pedagogy & graphic design), the greater its impact on the learner.

Which format to choose to achieve the best results?

Have you heard about it? On top of this, everyone talks about Neuroscience. Let’s take a deep breath now. It seems like creating e-learning training these days has become a science in itself, right?

The good news is you don’t need to be a rocket scientist to launch an e-learning project! You just need to be well prepared for the kick-off. And to help you get there, we drafted a list of 5 common mistakes you can easily avoid and save up time, energy and money. Let’s get to it:

Not knowing your playground

Start by taking enough time to understand how e-learning works and how to build a clear project framework. Don’t get intimidated by the richness of technical solutions and learning trends. The key step here is to understand which direction your project should take and which learning solution can bring you the most benefits (satisfying return on investment, high user satisfaction, closing the skills gap, etc). Not sure how to make the right choice? Get in touch with our team of e-learning specialists who will guide you and help you find the right solution.

Lack of clear objectives

Has it ever happened to you to follow a training course during which you learnt many new things, but you were unable to apply them in real life once the training was over? You definitely don’t want your learners to experience that. The solution here is simple: put yourself in their shoes and ask yourself: what exactly should this training help me understand? What should I be able to do at the end of it? What could possibly help me remember what I learnt? The answers will guide you.

Letting technology take over methodology

The secret of successful training is… a right scenario. No matter how powerful and up to date technology you use, your training will never work if the scenario isn’t solid. So before you pick a tool to produce your training with, think about the story you want tell your learners. How can you capture their attention? How do you want them to engage with your content? Which approach can help them progress? The answers will guide you to the right tool. Want to learn how to create an impactful scenario? Check out our next online sessions.

Ignoring how Neuroscience can help us build training that works

Have you ever wondered why training interactions and animations are so important in our learning process? Or why does the use of certain colors or sounds help us remember the content we learn? There are simple mechanisms we can activate in our brain to learn faster. And we can transform learning into an enjoyable and surprising experience. How? By triggering positive emotions.

Forgetting that marketing can be used to entice learners

A successful product launch is always preceded by an impactful marketing action. And this rule also applies to e-learning projects even if your aim isn’t necessary to sell the content (but rather to simply get people onboard). So no need to invest millions to let learners know the benefits your new training will bring them. To attract their attention, you can tease them before the training starts, shedding light, for example, on its new format, graphic design, fun challenges, simplicity, innovative site. Marketing technics can be extremely useful to get learners onboard when it comes to less popular training topics, such as: compliance, RGPD, … How to do it? Check out the examples here !

No matter if you have already started your project or you are planning to kick off one soon, this valuable insight should help you stay on the right track. Investing a little bit of time at the beginning of your project to set it up right will quickly pay off. You will be able to focus more on the creative process and unwind your imagination. To optimize your time and budget, especially if you’re a beginner, don’t hesitate to contact experienced professionals. Our team will be happy to help!
