Assessments were always an integral part of eLearning and continue to remain so. But with learning delivered in short nuggets becoming increasingly popular, is it time to revamp our assessment strategies too? Just like microlearning modules, microlearning assessments are gaining popularity.

Combining microlearning assets such as videos, infographics, and animations with traditional assessments offers considerable benefits to your evaluation strategy.
