THE ROLE OF MICROLEARNING IN IMPROVING ENGLISH LANGUAGE SKILLS

Abstract

Microlearning has emerged as an effective modern approach in language education, offering learners short, focused, and easily digestible learning units. This article explores the role of microlearning in improving English language skills, particularly in vocabulary acquisition, reading comprehension, listening, and speaking abilities. The study analyzes how bite-sized learning content delivered through digital platforms enhances students’ motivation, retention, and engagement compared to traditional long-form instruction. The findings suggest that microlearning increases learning efficiency by allowing students to learn at their own pace and revisit materials when necessary. Furthermore, the integration of mobile applications and online learning tools supports continuous and flexible language practice. Overall, the study highlights that microlearning is a powerful pedagogical strategy that contributes significantly to the development of English language proficiency in modern educational settings.
