You're in the right place! Follow these 3 steps to plan a lesson using microlearning to save time and increase your effectiveness.

This plan is for:

  • a 30-60 minute session

  • groups between 3-30 people

  • ages 10 and up

  • virtual or in-person sessions

Step 1: Pick A Byte

  • What skill are you trying to develop?

  • What challenges are your learners facing?

  • What interests them?

Chances are, there's a Byte for that!

Bytes are ~5 min e-learning courses that focus on the practical application of a skill. They use memes, gifs, and quizzes to engage learners.

Here's how to pick a Byte:

  • Browse the categories on Rumie or enter key terms in the search bar. ⬅️

  • Pick the Byte(s) you think your learners will best relate to. ⬅️

Step 2: Share The Byte

There are two main approaches you can use to review the Byte with your learners:

  1. Share the link and ask them to review it before your session. This is called a flipped classroom model. 🔗

  2. Read it through together in the session.Depending on the group size, either ask learners to take turns reading sections, or have them pair off and review the Byte together. 💬

Step 3: Discuss It

Spark conversation by asking questions like:

  • What did you find helpful?

  • What surprised you? 

  • Is there anything you can/will apply from the Byte to your life?

  • What else would you want to know about this topic/skill?

Add any other questions you have related to the specific content.
