The problem, it appears, was a perception that I’m deeply involved with orgs that perpetuate the problem. In the myths book , I deliberately addressed the appeal before pointing out it’s wrong (and, importantly, point to better alternatives). That, to me, is where the problem lies, and implicitly indicts the vendors.

The problem is that many of these myths seem perfectly acceptable, so we accept them uncritically. The problem is that the original model was never meant to express this. Reading a book, watching a video, or listening to a lecture are all passive activities. You can’t tell me what a book is about until you’ve read it.

While this one does a (slightly) better job talking about microlearning, it is riddled with other problems. My problem, in this case, wasn’t the push for microlearning (there were some meaningful distinctions, though no actual mention how they require different design).
