The idea of learning that occurs in small bursts is not new. MicroTeaching, the predecessor of MicroLearning, was invented in the 60s by Dwight W Allen at Stanford as a tool for professional development of educators. In this formalized setting, MicroTeaching was a short, timed session of teaching material with a predetermined objective to a small group for the purpose of eliciting feedback to improve teaching skills (Allen, 1968).
