Adapting to adaptive learning is a concept that’s easy to, well, adopt. 👀
Ever heard of it? It’s an educational workplace tool or philosophy that allows leaders to set individualised courses for employees. Why? Because not all workers are the same, nor should they be, as it’s the workplace diversity that builds strong teams and culture. 💪🏼
Adaptive learning algorithms filter out unnecessary learning by asking a series of carefully structured questions to accelerate the employee’s learning capabilities. The tech is all about identifying what an employee truly wants to learn and is beneficial because it gets to the root issue immediately.
No lost time or money on training modules that suit everyone, adaptive learning individualises for quicker success. Training is generally delivered in short bites of content which means less brain-bashing and faster learning and is catered to new-wave tech, so we aren’t chained to our desks doing long, boring modules.
Video and quiz-based formats make e-learning way more engaging and easier to digest, resulting in higher morale and business efficiency as the data and algorithms are almost failproof. Think of adaptive learning as a digital extension to a human instructor; one that has the time and energy to individualise e-learning to a tee!
Personalised Learning Platforms
Educational platforms like Khan Academy and Duolingo use adaptive learning algorithms to personalise the learning experience for each student. These platforms adjust the difficulty of questions and content based on the student’s performance, providing targeted support and challenges.
Where Apps such as Babbel and Rosetta Stone utilise adaptive learning to tailor language lessons to the user’s proficiency level, learning pace, and individual learning style. The Apps adjust the difficulty of exercises and vocabulary based on the user’s responses and progress.
Performance Support
Adaptive learning tools can offer just-in-time learning resources. For instance, if an employee is struggling with a particular software tool, the adaptive system can provide targeted tutorials and practice exercises to help them improve. 🤔
Leadership Training
Leadership development programs can be customised using adaptive learning to address the unique needs and career aspirations of emerging leaders, providing them with the most relevant and impactful training.
Language and Cultural Training
For multinational companies, adaptive learning can provide language and cultural training that adjusts to the employee’s proficiency level, ensuring that they acquire the necessary skills to communicate effectively with international colleagues and clients.
