Friday Microlearning

Looking to learn about new topics quickly? Friday Microlearning sessions adopt the model for learning about Ä¢¹½´«Ã½. This model combines a short timespan with an engaging and interactive format.

Sessions are guided by four principles: 
  •  Short: Sessions are 30 minutes or fewer.  
  •  Learner-centered: The facilitator should fill no more than half of the session with their own voice and generate opportunities for participants to fill the other half (or more) of the session.
  •  Interactive: Participants should have opportunities to apply the concept discussed during the session.
  •  Relevant: Participants should leave with ideas on how they might apply learning outcomes after the session.

Have an idea for a Friday Microlearning session?

Human Resources invites and nominates colleagues from across Ä¢¹½´«Ã½ to share expertise with the campus community. If you are interested in facilitating a future Friday Microlearning session, please complete a .

Upcoming Sessions

Sessions are held virtually via Zoom on Fridays from 11-11:30 a.m. For security, you must be logged into Zoom with your callutheran.edu email address.
