|
|
## When to Use Each Skill
|
|
|
|
### journey-mapper
|
|
- **Use when:** Designing new learning experiences
|
|
- **Use when:** Analyzing existing learner flows
|
|
- **Skip when:** Journey has already been mapped and validated
|
|
|
|
### engagement-analyzer
|
|
- **Use when:** Reviewing engagement metrics
|
|
- **Use when:** Identifying drop-off points
|
|
- **Skip when:** No engagement data is available
|
|
|
|
### gamification-designer
|
|
- **Use when:** Adding engagement mechanics
|
|
- **Use when:** Designing badge or point systems
|
|
- **Skip when:** Content is formal or gamification is inappropriate
|
|
|
|
### microlearning-architect
|
|
- **Use when:** Structuring content for microlearning
|
|
- **Use when:** Designing spaced repetition schedules
|
|
- **Skip when:** Content is designed for long-form delivery
|
|
|
|
### ui-spec-generator
|
|
- **Use when:** Specifying UI components for developers
|
|
- **Use when:** Creating design specifications
|
|
- **Skip when:** UI is handled by existing design system
|
|
|
|
## Design Decisions
|
|
|
|
### Engagement Level
|
|
- **High gamification:** Badges, points, leaderboards, challenges
|
|
- Best for: K-12, casual learning, engagement-focused
|
|
- **Medium gamification:** Progress bars, completion certificates
|
|
- Best for: Professional development, higher education
|
|
- **Low gamification:** Minimal game elements, focus on content
|
|
- Best for: Academic, compliance, formal training
|
|
|
|
### Journey Structure
|
|
- **Linear:** Fixed sequence for all learners
|
|
- Best for: Foundational knowledge, regulated content
|
|
- **Adaptive:** Sequence adjusts based on performance
|
|
- Best for: Varied learner backgrounds, competency-based
|
|
- **Choice-based:** Learners select their own path
|
|
- Best for: Self-directed, experienced learners
|
|
|
|
### Microlearning Unit Size
|
|
- **Very short (2-5 minutes):** Single concept, quick practice
|
|
- Best for: Mobile learning, just-in-time training
|
|
- **Short (5-10 minutes):** Concept + example + practice
|
|
- Best for: Standard microlearning, most contexts
|
|
- **Medium (10-15 minutes):** Deeper exploration with multiple activities
|
|
- Best for: Complex topics, desktop learning
|
|
|
|
## Trade-offs to Consider
|
|
|
|
| Decision | Benefit | Cost |
|
|
|----------|---------|------|
|
|
| More gamification | Higher engagement | Development complexity, potential distraction |
|
|
| Adaptive journey | Personalized experience | Complex logic, more content needed |
|
|
| Smaller units | Easier to complete | More units to manage, potential fragmentation |
|
|
| Choice-based | Learner autonomy | Harder to ensure coverage, complex tracking |
