Mobile learning and adaptive learning are among the pillars of digital learning. When used together as part of an adaptive learning strategy, they can make a real difference intraining efficiency.
Within organizations, more and more employees are asking for training that is both more personalized and more flexible. Companies must therefore implement learning strategies combining adaptive learning and mobile learning to optimize their training systems.
Let's see how the combination of adaptive learning and mobile learning can make a real difference when it comes toengaging employees in a personalized training program.
Adaptive learning, a tool adapted to the needs and rhythms of learning
Depending on the training needs of a learner, adaptive learning adjusts the content and duration of the sessions. This e-learning method makes it possible to refine the information to be transmitted, thus making the exercises more precise.
The “adaptive learning” strategy is based on the evaluation of learners, focusing in particular on active e-learning formats such as simulation exercises: they make it possible to retrieve a lot of information about learners, and therefore a more precise adaptation than with more passive e-learning modules such as video.
Adaptive learning represents real added value for evaluating and developing learners' skills through the personalization and individualization of the learning journey.
“Mobile” learning to quickly reach training goals
The Mobile learning makes it possible to facilitate access to training. The modules are mobile-friendly, both in their format and in their content. In recent years, mobile learning has also included learning content specifically designed for mobile devices called microlearning. These short and fun modules, such as videos and podcasts, do not exceed a few minutes and can therefore be viewed during off-peak hours at work or in transport.
With micro-learning, the concepts to be transmitted are assimilated in a very short time. Split learning promotes access to information, concentration and memory. This very flexible teaching method allows the learner to manage the time he devotes to training.
Blending adaptive learning and mobile learning for greater flexibility
Combining adaptive learning and mobile learning makes it possible to place employees at the center of their training journey with personalized and flexible modules. Adaptive learning delivers the right content at the right time, while mobile learning breaks down geographic barriers. The learner chooses when he wants to train and accesses his content easily from his smartphone. He thus benefits from an ultra-optimized career path and acquires knowledge and know-how over the long term.
The results of this adaptive learning + mobile learning approach are greater employee involvement, as well as diversified and easily available content, useful and rapidly applicable knowledge.
For the employee, this allows them to remain motivated and to develop skills on a regular basis, while the company has efficient employees in order to improve its competitiveness in its market and to reduce turnover.
