Micro-learning in 2025

Dave Truss describes how microlearning has changed over the years (where 'microlearning' is thought of as 'getting an answer to a question'). We used to try the encyclopedia (or maybe, if it's me, the World Almanac or CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics). Later, we would check Google or Wikipedia. Later still, for some people at least (probably not me), we'd ask social media. For some things, we'd ask YouTube. Today, says Truss, we're just as likely to as an AI. "AI will do two things for you. First it will curate your learning for you. And secondly it will be adaptive to your learning needs." Except - right now, being adaptive to my learning needs is something AI isn't particularly good at. Though this will change. Truss argues that this will have an impact in classrooms. Maybe. But AI will be as welcome in classrooms as the plague. I mean, they're banning phones. Students will be the last to use AI as part of what they do, not the first.
