For microlearning to be truly effective, you need a platform to reach and engage your learners consistently. Chatbots that are installed into existing collaboration platforms like Microsoft Teams and Slack are a compelling way to deliver the promise of microlearning.

Chatbots make things easy for learners, as they don’t need to log in to a separate app or learning platform—they can engage in a short lesson right where they are. And when it comes to truly engaging the learner, chatbots can be programmed to have a fun and deferential personality that softens the annoyance of the interruption that learning invitations cause. In addition, chatbots can be personalized to custom fit the learning activity for each learner’s context.

In this session, you will learn:

  • How to use chatbots to bring microlearning into collaboration platforms like Microsoft Teams and Slack
  • Why chatbots are effective at engaging learners in learning
  • How to adapt chatbots to fit learners' needs and learning context
