something through bite sized learning or micro-learning
We can’t learn everything

of information at a time. As in traditional learning methods, people attend
lectures of 1 hour continuously but the fact is that a human being can focus on
something for a maximum of 20 minutes.
So, micro-learning or
bit-sized learning provides lessons of anything from 60 seconds to maximum of
20 minutes. Hence learners can fully concentrate on learning.
