Studies reveal that employees can forget as much as 50 percent to 80 percent when learning is not reinforced after the training event. <ul><li>When bite-sized learning content is easily and readily accessible, learners can take it at their own pace, wherever they are, and most importantly, when they are “ready.”</li><li>Because bite-sized courses are more focused, learners don’t have to clutter their memories with irrelevant information. This makes retention easier.</li><li>Learners have to digest only small chunks of information. This makes comprehension easier without spending too much effort.</li></ul>

Microlearning is more efficient than traditional longer-duration courses

According to a <a href="http://campaign-for-learning.org.uk/cfl/assets/documents/Activitiesandworksheets/bitesize_law.pdf">survey on Learning and Development professionals</a>, a whopping 94% said that they prefer microlearning to traditional time-consuming courses because their learners prefer it (Boyette, 2012). The C-suite too has realized the efficacy of microlearning in addressing the needs of <a href="https://www.shiftelearning.com/blog/what-do-modern-learners-actually-want-from-your-elearning-courses">modern learners</a>.Millennial learners demand that training is<ul><li>Customized to their needs</li><li>On-demand</li><li>Informal</li></ul>

8 out of 10 L & D professionals favor microlearning

According to a report, learners would use their company’s learning tools more if the courses are shorter. Some helpful tips:<ul><li>Create your bite-sized courses to resemble social media content—on-demand, engaging, and media-rich.</li><li>Engage your audience right from the start and keep at it until the end of the module.</li><li>Cut to the chase. Do away with the history, the background information, and the theories. Deliver the “how-to” right away. Remember, your learners are looking for just-in-time solutions.</li></ul>

Microlearning creates 50% more engagement

ML is the need of the hour because of <a href="https://www.trainingindustry.com/learning-technologies/articles/is-bite-size-learning-the-way-to-engage-the-modern-distracted-learner.aspx">the way the average modern learner functions in his daily life</a>. Here’s what a study carried out by the UCI has found: <ul><li>Your employee works on a task for about 11 minutes before he is interrupted by a ring or ding of the phone, a popping email, or his co-worker who has come up to his desk.</li><li>Within that span of 11 minutes, he engages in multiple short and quick tasks that average about 3 minutes each.</li><li>If the task involves consuming digital information, he spends just 20 seconds browsing one piece of content before he clicks or flicks through to the next.</li></ul>

Learning in stretches of 3-7 minutes matches the working memory capacity and attention spans of humans

According to learning architect Ray Jimenez by creating micro-courses learning developers can reduce costs by 50% and increase the speed of development by 300%.  Here’s why:<ul><li>There’s no need to pay for the instructor’s time, buy or rent physical classrooms and pay for the utilities, and spend money on classroom equipment.</li><li>It is easier and less time- and resource-intensive to update digital information than reprint training manuals and conduct supplementary classroom training sessions.</li><li>It is easier and less time-consuming to roll out microlearning courses because they are modular in nature.</li></ul>

Reduce development costs by 50% and increase the speed of development by 300% with micro eLearning courses

Adopting microlearning creates a win-win situation for both you and the learners. It is not late to go small now.

Why Microlearning is Better for Your Learners

<ul><li>Finland has a country-wide media literacy program at all levels of education.</li><li>Research suggests that misinformation-related education works; Finland is the top European country for media-related critical thinking.</li><li>Research in Uganda suggests that such training can work even in low-resource contexts.</li><li>The United States could benefit from evidence-based curricula aimed at media literacy.</li></ul>

Finland: A Model for Media Literacy Training

The Finnish educational model  teaches young students to push back against “fake news” as early as primary school. The Finnish government began this pedagogical push in 2014 when Russian disinformation became increasingly widespread in Finland.Such a program is increasingly necessary as Finnish children, like their counterparts around the world, consume news not from traditional sources, but from social media, including WhatsApp, Instagram, and Snapchat.

Making Them Aware At An Early Age

Finland is overwhelmingly the top country in the <a href="http://osis.bg/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/MediaLiteracyIndex2019_-ENG.pdf">European Media Literacy Index</a>. The report described Finland and other high-scoring countries as  best equipped to withstand the impact of fake news due to the quality of education, free media, and high trust among people. This early media education is an essential part of Finland’s success.

Early Media Literacy Education Works

The education system emphasizes the breakdown of misinformation, disinformation, and "malinformation".Misinformation includes errors that may be unintentional. Disinformation encompasses outright lies. And malinformation is what know as “gossip.” Malinformation may be accurate or inaccurate; either way, the goal is to cause harm.

Don’t Call It “Fake News”

Finland is a model for media literacy training at any age.

How Finland Fights Disinformation

Intentional learning occurs when it is the primary goal of a learner. For example, someone who wants to learn a new language reads a book in a language and looks up new words that they encounter to improve their vocabulary.This is contrasted with incidental learning, where the same learner just picks up words while talking with someone in the target language without attempting to learn new vocabulary. When we understand intentional learning, we can optimise learning and teaching.

Intentional learning

Intentional learning involves learning that's active and autonomous. Characteristics include: <ul><li>Motivation to learn</li><li>Specific learning goals</li><li>Attempts to improve the learning process</li><li>Analytical engagement with relevant material</li><li>Questioning things such as experiences and facts</li><li>Organizing new knowledge and ideas into useful systems of facts</li><li>Connecting new and old knowledge</li><li>Reflecting on what, how, and why the learner is learning</li><li>Adapting to new situations and needs.</li></ul>

Characteristics of intentional learning

<ul><li>Incidental learning occurs during activities where learning is not a goal for the learner. For example, when someone plays a sport just for fun, but ends up improving their skills over time.</li><li>Intentional learning involves learning as a deliberate and primary goal.</li></ul> Neither type of learning is inherently better. Each type has its own advantages and disadvantages, depending on the person and circumstances.

Intentional vs incidental learning

<ul><li>It can be more effective, such as learning an advanced mathematical concept for an exam.</li><li>It can be more efficient.</li><li>It can be more enjoyable.</li></ul> In other situations, intentional learning is less effective, efficient or enjoyable, and incidental learning is preferred.

Benefits of intentional learning

<ul><li>Encourage the main antecedents of intentional learning, including motivation, belief in your learning ability, and recognising your need to learn.</li><li>Identify your goals, such as figuring out what concepts you’re trying to learn.</li><li>Plan your learning.  Find out where and when you will learn and which learning strategies you will use.</li><li>Actively question information that you encounter.</li></ul>

How to learn intentionally

<ul><li>Develop the antecedents of intentional learning, such as helping people recognize the need for learning.</li><li>Help learners identify their learning goals.</li><li>Help learners plan their learning. For example, figuring out where and when they’re going to learn.</li><li>Encourage the use of effective learning strategies.</li></ul>

How to promote intentional learning in others

Personal Development

Setting Learning as a Deliberate Goal – Effectiviology

One of the most valuable military tactics.Involves “personally seeing the front line” before making decisions—not always relying on advisors, maps, and reports, all of which can be either faulty or biased. Seeing the Front improves the quality of insights.

Seeing the Front

A type of warfare in which two parties have different military capabilities or methods of war.In such a case, the weak party must take advantage of its special advantages or the opponent’s weaknesses in order to have any opportunity to achieve its goals.

Asymmetric Warfare

Occurs when opposing forces approach two geographically separate fronts in order to divide and disperse the defenders troops, and create logistical difficulties.WW2 was a good example: Germany was forced to defend two front's when they became enemies with Russia.

Two-Front War

Various tactics and strategies used to combat armed insurgency (violent, armed war against authority waged by small forces).It's the blend of comprehensive civilian and military efforts designed to simultaneously contain insurgency and address its root causes.

Counterinsurgency

A situation where two parties are in a stalemate, and neither can make a move without causing their own destruction.Paradoxically, the stronger two opponents become, the less likely they may be to destroy one another.

Mutually Assured Destruction

An armed conflict between two states or non-state actors which act on the instigation or on behalf of other parties that are not directly involved in the hostilities.Example: Cuban Missile Crisis

Proxy War

A form of warfare where small groups of soldiers, such as paramilitary or armed civilians use military tactics including ambushes, sabotage, raids, petty warfare, hit-and-run tactics, and mobility, to fight a larger and less-mobile traditional military.

Guerilla Warfare

Involves deliberately attracting enemies to a location where they are more vulnerable, like attracting flies to flypaper, usually also directing them far away from your valuable assets.For example, U.S. ground forces in Iraq preventing attacks on U.S. soil.

Flypaper Theory

Armies by default use strategies, tactics, and technology that worked for them in the past (last war).The problem is that what was most useful for the last war may not be best for the next one. This can mean smaller forces prevail with better tactics.

Fighting the Last War

You go to war with the army you have. They’re not the army you might want or wish to have at a later time.Organizations hardly ever have perfect resources, but they can't always afford to wait until they have better ones before moving forward.

10 important concepts in Military Strategy & War

You'll likely be required to write and submit a personal statement as part of the application process to graduate school. A personal statement is a short essay, two to three pages, explaining why you're applying to the program and why you are a unique applicant. Writing your personal statement is the best way to show off your personality. It helps the admission committee better understand who you are outside of your professional and academic experience that will make you a good prospect for the program.

Writing a personal statement for graduate school

The first step to writing an outstanding personal statement is to take some time to reflect. Writing prompts can serve as a foundation for your personal statement. <ul><li>What are my short-term and long-term goals? Will acceptance into this program help me achieve them?</li><li>What are my strengths and how can these benefit the program?</li><li>What life experience or interest is so meaningful that I would devote years to exploring the topic?</li><li>Is there someone who has significantly impacted my life or character? Describe.</li><li>What do I want the people reviewing my application to know about me? </li></ul>

Brainstorm before you write your personal statement

A great personal statement capture who you are as a person. <ul><li>Your story is unique. The more authentic you are, the better.</li><li>Your personal statement should be complete. You want to give your audience all the information they might need to decide on your application.</li><li>It should be mistake-free.</li></ul>

Aspect of a strong personal statement

<ol><li>Include examples. Back up any claims you make. For example, you can prove that you're driven by sharing that you balanced a job with school to pay down student loans.</li><li>Be yourself. Be authentic when crafting your personal statement. </li><li>Do your research. Ensure you know what you're getting yourself into.</li><li>Grab their attention. Think of an instance that shaped you and jump right into the story. Keep it short and engaging,</li><li>Remember your audience. Stay professional.</li><li>Address the prompt in your personal statement.</li><li>Revise and proofread</li></ol>

7 dos for a personal statement

<ol><li>Don’t be presumptuous. “I know my personal statement for grad school is the best, and I have no doubt that I’ll get in everywhere I apply.”</li><li>Don’t use platitudes or clichés. Avoid starting your essay with a quote, definition, or anything else that signals the obvious fact that time has passed and you’re now applying for graduate school. "From a young age..." or "I've always been interested in ..."</li><li>Don’t overshare. It is not an autobiography. Pick one or two life events that shaped your desire to apply to grad school, but don't share your entire life story.</li></ol>

3 Don'ts for a personal statement

Start with an outline:<ul><li>Introduction. Include a hook that captures your reader's attention.</li><li>Body paragraphs. The paragraphs explain your motivations for applying. Include examples of characteristics you want to share, such as a challenge you overcame.</li><li>Conclusion. Discuss future plans and why acceptance into your desired program would benefit you.</li></ul> The final paragraph should be just as good as your hook. You want the audience to remember your paper.

The Pleasure of Finding Things Out

Step 1Take Smart Notes ‌Gather the Right Materials‌Take Smart Notes in Nontechnical Courses (What’s the Big Idea?) **Nontechnical course” refers to any course outside of math, science, economics, and engineering. ‌Format Your Notes Aggressively‌Capture Big Ideas by Using the Question/Evidence/Conclusion StructureQuestionEvidenceConclusion‌A Brief Example

Part-2 quizzes and exam

Take Smart Notes in Technical Courses (Where’s the Problem?)‌The key to taking notes in a technical course is to record as many sample problems as possible.‌Don’t Read Your Assignments, but Do Keep Them HandyPrioritize Your Note-taking‌First priority: Record the problem statement and answer.‌Second priority: Question the confusing‌Third priority: Record the steps of the sample problem.‌Final priority: Annotate the steps.

Demote Your Assignments‌Work Constantly‌every Sunday night and plan out the week‌complete one problem a day, one hour at a time.‌reading assignments—knock off a chapter a day‌Don’t Read Everything‌It’s important to triage your assignments: What do you need to read? What do you need to skim? And what can you skip entirely?”‌Always read the assignments from favored sources‌Readings that make an argument are more important than ‌readings that describe an event or person, which are more important than ‌readings that only provide context (i.e., speech transcripts, press clippings).

Step 2

‌In a course with no favored sources, readings that directly address the specific topic of the lecture act as the favored sources for the day. ‌Don’t Work Alone on Problem Sets ‌Solve Problems on the Go ‌Write Solutions Right the First Time

Marshal Your Resources ‌Define the Challenge• Which lectures and reading assignments (or problem sets) are fair game?• What type of questions will there be, and how many of each? “It’s helpful to know in advance what kind of knowledge will be asked for on the exam—IDs, dates, broad syntheses of the texts’ major arguments?”

Step 3

• Is the exam open note or open book? • For a technical class, will formulas be provided or do they need to be memorized? • How much time will be available? Does the professor expect the exam to be easy to complete during the test period or a challenge? ‌Build a Study Guide (Organizing Nontechnical Course Material) ‌Construct a Mega-Problem Set (Organizing Technical Course Material)

1. Match the lecture to the problem set that covers the same material. 2. Copy sample problems from these lecture notes onto a blank sheet of paper. You don’t have to copy the steps or the answers, just the questions. 3. Label the blank sheet of paper with the date of the lecture. This will help you later figure out where these problems came from (and more important, where their answers can be found). 4. Fasten this sheet with a paper clip to the problem set you matched it to in step one.

‌Prepare Memorization Aids using flash cards ‌Schedule Your Organization WiselyD on’t try to organize and study in the same day

Conquer the Material ‌Trust the Quiz-and-Recall Method‌Using the Quiz-and-Recall Method for Nontechnical Courses‌The physical act of writing and the manipulation of the material in my mind was usually enough to keep things straightput little check marks on your quizzes next to any questions that you had trouble answering.‌Using the Quiz-and-Recall Method for Technical Coursesthe important equations and concepts out by hand.‌Memorize over Time

Step 4

Invest in “Academic Disaster Insurance” ‌Eliminate Your Question Marks • Ask questions during class. • Develop the habit of talking to your professor briefly after class. • Ask classmates.• Come prepared to exam review sessions (if offered).

Step 5

Provide “A+” Answers The potential pitfalls during an exam are numerous, but the most common are: (1) running out of time and (2) providing answers that, although detailed, don’t fully answer all parts of the question being asked.

Step 6

Strategy #1: Review First, Answer Questions Later ‌Always read through the entire exam first Strategy #2: Build a Time Budget lay down very strict time limits for myself on each question ‌First, take the time allotted for the exam and subtract ten minutes. ‌Next, divide this amount by the number of questions. The result is how long you have to spend on each prompt.

Strategies 

‌For an exam with a small number of questions, mark right on the test pages the time when you should begin and finish each one. For an exam with many questions, divide the exam into equal fourths, then jot down the time you should begin and end each section ‌these recorded times will keep you updated on how close your current progress matches your predetermined schedule

How to Become a Straight-A Student

New knowledge or memory is not created by new neurons rather by existing ones firing over and over again. Another way memory is created is through strong activation once and only once called one trial learning it is most associated with negative events

Repetition Does Increase Memory  

<ul><li>Working memory: memories that you hold for a short amount of time and then discard right away </li><li>Long term memory: memories that you hold for a long term or life </li><li>Short term memory: memories you hold for a little while maybe a month and then discard </li></ul>

Different Types Of Memories 

<ol><li>Repitition and Recall: this is the most proven and most effective way to increase memory you strengthen the connections </li><li>Create a heighten emotional state it’s not just about stress but rather creating higher awareness </li></ol>You need to increase adrenaline to learn better there are multiple different ways of doing that

Tools For Increasing Memory 

Caffine could have a positive or a negative impact on the effects on learning Dont use Caffine too much while learning it increases your attention but decreases your retention so it is a slippery slope that you would need to be careful about.

The Effects Of Caffine In Learning 

To put it into action you need to increase the amount of emotions you feel immediately after learning something some ways you can do that is as follows <ol><li>Dip your hand in cold water right after learning it </li><li>take an ice bath </li><li>Drink Caffine</li><li>Go out for a hard run or do exercise </li></ol>The main goal of the podcast is that to drastically improve your memory you need to spike Adrenaline after learning

Putting It into Action 

Cardiovascular exercise is very key increasing memory because if Increases the memory neurons

Exercise Is One Of The Best Way To Increase Memory 

Taking photos is very effective in increasing memory it could happen via a mental snapshot or an actual device screenshot When we are taking a picture of something we are stamping down a visual memory but we are inhibiting the ability to rembeer the auditory or sound version it didn’t matter whether they look at the photos again or not

Taking Photos Is A Very Understated Way To Increase Memory 

Meditation can drasticallly improve memory though there are a lot of things to consider <ul><li>You need to do it for at least 8 weeks for it to occur just like lifting </li><li>Improvements are not obvious to see </li></ul>

Meditation Can Drastically Improve Memory

Wow, another great podcast. He breaks down how to dramatically improve memory here are the main points 

This episode I explain the mechanisms by which different types of memories are established in our brain and how to leverage the amount and timing of key neurochemicals and hormones, such as adrenaline (aka epinephrine) and cortisol, to improve your learning and memory abilities. I describe multiple science-based protocols to do this, including repetition, caffeine, emotional states, deliberate cold exposure, sleep, meditation, and the role of vision, including taking “mental snapshots.” I also describe how exercise and an associated hormone, osteocalcin, can improve cognitive ability and memory formation. I also describe unique aspects and forms of memory such as photographic memory, extreme facial recognition (aka super recognition), and the phenomenon known as déjà vu.

Huberman Lab discusses neuroscience: how our brain and its connections with the organs of our body control our perceptions, our behaviors, and our health. We also discuss existing and emerging tools for measuring and changing how our nervous system works. Dr. Andrew Huberman is a tenured professor of neurobiology and ophthalmology at Stanford School of Medicine. His laboratory studies neural regeneration, neuroplasticity, and brain states such as stress, focus, fear, and optimal performance. For more than 20 years, Dr. Huberman has consistently published original research findings and review articles in top-level peer-reviewed journals, including Nature, Science, Cell, Neuron, and Current Biology. He is a regular member of several National Institutes of Health review panels and a Fellow of the McKnight Foundation and the Pew Charitable Trusts. Dr. Huberman regularly consults for technology development companies, professional athletic organizations, and various units of U.S. and Canadian Special Operations.

"Do everything you have to do, but not with greed, not with ego, not with lust, not with envy but with love, compassion, humility and devotion."

"Bigger the ego, smaller the mind."

"Do your duty without thinking of it's result. Your time will teach you everything, just don't forget to learn from it."

"Talk to yourself once a day, otherwise you will not be able to talk to the most important man of the world."

"A man is made by his beliefs. As he believes, so he becomes."
