Abstract
This theoretical chapter outlines how microlessons offer a transformative approach to modern education in both K-12 and higher education settings. These concise, focused learning modules cater to diverse learning styles, engage shorter attention spans, and promote active participation. Microlessons offer a versatile and adaptable approach to learning, catering to a wide range of learning styles. Challenges, such as balancing content depth with brevity and ensuring equitable technology access, are met with strategic solutions. Integrating multimedia elements enhances engagement, and formative assessments embedded within microlessons provide timely feedback. In K-12 education, microlessons aid foundational understanding, while in higher education, they support flipped classroom models and targeted skill acquisition. Carefully designed sequences ensure cohesive integration with curricula. Despite challenges, the benefits are substantial and include fostering critical skills, autonomy, and adaptability.
