Micro Learning Course Builder
Design, structure, and export concise learning pathways efficiently without complex LMS software.
How to Use the Micro Learning Course Builder
Welcome to the ultimate tool for instructional designers, educators, and corporate trainers. The Micro Learning Course Builder is designed to streamline the process of curriculum mapping by focusing on speed, structure, and simplicity. Unlike bloated Learning Management Systems (LMS), this tool runs entirely in your browser, allowing for rapid prototyping of course structures.
1. Setting Up Your Course Foundation
Begin by defining the core identity of your learning path. In the top section, enter a clear, action-oriented Course Title. Follow this with a brief Objective. In micro-learning, objectives should be concise—focus on a specific skill or outcome (e.g., "Master Excel Pivot Tables in 30 Minutes" rather than "Learn Excel").
2. Building Modular Content
Micro-learning relies on breaking complex topics into digestible chunks. Use the "Add New Module" button to create distinct sections. Think of a module as a chapter or a thematic bucket.
- Naming Modules: Give each module a descriptive title.
- Adding Lessons: Within each module, add individual lessons. These are your "content bites." A lesson could be a 2-minute video, a checklist, a quiz, or a short article.
- Drag & Drop Mental Model: While this version focuses on structure entry, organize your thoughts linearly. Group related concepts together to ensure flow.
3. Managing and Exporting Data
As you build, the sidebar updates in real-time, tracking your total module and lesson counts. This helps you gauge the size of your course. A typical micro-course should have 3-5 modules with 3-5 lessons each.
Once satisfied, you have two powerful options:
- Download JSON: This generates a structured data file representing your course. Developers can use this file to programmatically build the course in a custom app or website.
- Print Syllabus: Generates a clean, distraction-free PDF or paper copy of your outline, perfect for stakeholder approval or student handouts.
Why Choose a Browser-Based Builder?
Security and speed are paramount. This tool operates 100% client-side. Your course data never leaves your device, ensuring privacy for proprietary corporate training materials. Furthermore, the lightweight code ensures the tool loads instantly on mobile devices, tablets, and desktops alike.
