G. Shrivastava

March 19, 2024

At Adaptiv, we're committed to making education accessible and engaging for everyone. Our bite-sized, focused micro-learning modules have empowered learners to acquire new skills and knowledge quickly and efficiently. Now, we're really pleased to announce the introduction of audio embeds, a feature that further enhances the inclusivity and reach of our micro-learning platform.

Unlocking Potential Through Audio

The addition of audio embeds opens doors for a wider range of learners, creating a more inclusive learning environment. Learners with visual impairments can now access course content through high-quality audio recordings. Auditory learners can also benefit from a format that caters to their preferred learning style, potentially improving information absorption and knowledge retention.

Let's not forget the bulk of our learners - professionals and individuals with limited time, who can now can consume course materials while commuting, exercising, or performing everyday tasks, maximising their learning potential even with a packed schedule.

Aligning with the UN's Sustainable Development Goals

Our commitment to audio-enabled learning goes beyond just enhancing the Adaptiv platform. It also aligns with the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), specifically:
SDG 4: Quality Education: Audio learning bridges the gap for individuals with visual impairments and learning disabilities. It also caters to those in remote locations or areas with limited internet access, promoting educational equity and ensuring everyone has the opportunity to learn and grow.
SDG 10: Reduced Inequalities: Audio removes barriers for people with disabilities, creating a level playing field for education and career advancement. It also fosters social inclusion by making learning materials accessible to a wider demographic.
SDG 8: Decent Work and Economic Growth: By empowering individuals to gain new skills and qualifications through accessible learning formats, audio-enabled micro-courses contribute to a more skilled workforce and increased employability.

The Advantages of Audio-based Learning

The benefits of incorporating audio extend far beyond inclusivity and accessibility. Here are some additional advantages of audio-based learning:
🔈 Improved Knowledge Retention: Studies have shown that active listening, a key component of audio learning, can enhance information processing and memory recall compared to passive reading.
🔈 Increased Engagement: Audio lessons can be engaging and dynamic, keeping learners focused and motivated throughout the course.

The Future of Micro-learning is Inclusive

At Adaptiv, we believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to learn and grow. By incorporating audio embeds, we're taking a significant step towards creating a more inclusive learning environment. This aligns perfectly with our core values and the UN's SDGs, ensuring quality education and promoting lifelong learning opportunities for all.
