Harnessing Microlearning: A Sustainable Approach to Educating on Business Sustainability

Introduction:

In an era marked by growing environmental concerns and social responsibility, businesses face increasing pressure to adopt sustainable practices. From reducing carbon emissions to promoting ethical supply chains, the concept of business sustainability encompasses a wide range of initiatives aimed at minimizing environmental impact and fostering social well-being. To effectively educate employees on the principles of sustainability and integrate sustainable practices into organizational culture, businesses are turning to innovative approaches such as microlearning. In this article, we'll explore how microlearning can be leveraged to teach business sustainability, empowering organizations to cultivate a more environmentally and socially conscious workforce.

Understanding Business Sustainability:

Business sustainability, often referred to as corporate sustainability or environmental, social, and governance (ESG) practices, involves integrating economic, environmental, and social considerations into business operations and decision-making processes. Sustainable businesses strive to balance profit generation with environmental stewardship, social equity, and ethical governance, aiming to create long-term value for all stakeholders. Key components of business sustainability include:

Environmental Stewardship: Minimizing resource consumption, reducing waste generation, and mitigating environmental impact through sustainable practices such as energy efficiency, waste reduction, and pollution prevention.

Social Responsibility: Promoting social equity, diversity, and inclusion within the workforce, supporting local communities, and upholding human rights throughout the supply chain.

Economic Viability: Ensuring financial stability and long-term profitability through sustainable business practices that consider environmental and social factors alongside economic considerations.

The Role of Microlearning in Teaching Business Sustainability:

Microlearning, characterized by short, focused learning modules delivered in bite-sized formats, offers a unique opportunity to educate employees on the principles of business sustainability:

Bite-sized Content: Microlearning breaks down complex sustainability concepts into easily digestible modules, focusing on specific topics such as energy conservation, waste management, and ethical sourcing. By delivering content in manageable chunks, microlearning makes it easier for learners to grasp and retain information.

Just-in-Time Learning: Microlearning provides just-in-time access to relevant sustainability information, allowing employees to access training materials whenever they need them. Whether it's a quick refresher on recycling guidelines or a primer on sustainable procurement practices, microlearning enables employees to find the information they need quickly and conveniently.

Interactive Engagement: Microlearning modules often incorporate interactive elements such as quizzes, simulations, and case studies to engage learners and reinforce key concepts. Interactive exercises encourage active participation and critical thinking, helping employees apply sustainability principles to their roles effectively.

Personalized Learning Pathways: Microlearning platforms may offer personalized learning pathways tailored to each learner's preferences, knowledge level, and learning pace. By providing customized content recommendations and adaptive learning experiences, organizations can ensure that employees receive training that is relevant, engaging, and impactful.

Benefits of Using Microlearning for Teaching Business Sustainability:

Leveraging microlearning for teaching business sustainability offers several benefits for organizations:

Increased Awareness: Microlearning raises awareness of sustainability issues and practices among employees, fostering a culture of environmental and social responsibility within the organization. By educating employees on the importance of sustainability and the role they play in driving positive change, organizations can inspire greater commitment to sustainable practices.

Enhanced Engagement: The interactive nature of microlearning modules captures learners' attention and maintains their engagement throughout the training process. Employees are more likely to actively participate in sustainability education initiatives and apply their knowledge to make sustainable choices in their day-to-day work.

Improved Retention: Microlearning's focus on delivering bite-sized, easily digestible content improves information retention compared to traditional training methods. By reinforcing learning through spaced repetition and retrieval practice, organizations can ensure that employees retain and apply sustainability knowledge over time.

Practical Application: Microlearning modules often include real-world examples and case studies that illustrate the practical application of sustainability principles in various business contexts. By providing concrete examples of sustainable practices and their impact, organizations empower employees to integrate sustainability into their decision-making processes and daily routines.

Implementing Microlearning for Teaching Business Sustainability:

To effectively implement microlearning for teaching business sustainability, organizations should follow these best practices:

Define Learning Objectives: Clearly define learning objectives for sustainability education initiatives, focusing on key sustainability topics or concepts relevant to employees' roles.

Develop Bite-sized Modules: Create short, focused microlearning modules that cover specific sustainability topics or skills. Keep modules concise and focused to prevent information overload and maximize retention.

Incorporate Interactive Elements: Integrate interactive elements such as quizzes, simulations, case studies, and scenario-based exercises into microlearning modules to engage learners and reinforce key concepts.

Provide Ongoing Support: Offer ongoing support and reinforcement to learners throughout the sustainability education process. Provide access to resources, feedback, and coaching to help employees apply sustainability principles effectively.

Measure Learning Outcomes: Use learning analytics to track learners' progress and assess the effectiveness of sustainability education initiatives. Monitor completion rates, quiz scores, and feedback to identify areas for improvement and inform future training strategies.

Conclusion:

Microlearning presents a powerful tool for educating employees on the principles of business sustainability and fostering a culture of environmental and social responsibility within organizations. By delivering bite-sized, interactive content that is accessible anytime, anywhere, organizations can engage employees and drive meaningful behavior change. As businesses continue to prioritize sustainability in their operations, leveraging microlearning for sustainability education will become increasingly essential for fostering a culture of environmental stewardship and social responsibility.

i’m catching up on tsv, i think something that eskew prod does extremely well is using horror absurdism to capture the absurd horror of capitalism. it’s clear in eskew too, but i think it’s especially fantastic in the silt verses. the casualness with which sacrifice is discussed. how red lobster has a god that has and continues to take human sacrifice, and so do cereal companies, cops, and the grueling start up that has a “fun room”. it captures EXTREMELY well how it feels to live under capitalism, that you’re constantly bombarded with horrible things, discussed cheerily in a nice tone. the way it’s simultaneously numbing, hysterical, and horrifying. i think i was especially fond of how in ep 39, protest against sacrifice was taken as radical, a propostorus, idealistic thing that’s just so SILLY it’s not even worth considering, something that feels very real to revolutionary organizing/protest irl. i also liked how despite the face, when everything gets down to it, when everything is about profit, all people come down to are bodies. all capitalism is a gaping maw, and it eats the poor and marginalized first, but doesn’t STOP eating just there. the very literalized version of this, where the profit wheel (and all that includes— war mongering, the prison industrial complex, wage labor, etc) is given a very real literal set of teeth, but the body count is the same. so the electric company has a god, and so it takes humans sacrifice. do real electric companies not have a very real human cost? overworked and underpaid labors looking to make rent, or well off comfortable employees no less likely to get the axe under profit margins, or the blood shed when colonizing in the first place, in clearing the space for the electric company to move in. is that not also a very real human sacrifice? the commercial aimed at elderly people talking about “back in my day, we would just talk about all this human sacrifice and find a compromise :)” is so bleakly hysterical, but is that not very accurate? that you can put a good face on it, but in the end what it comes down to is that you’re being sold the chance to be human fodder? that there is no glory or honor on a battlefield or in working yourself to death, just mud and shit and bodies to throw at problems. idk! i’m rambling but it’s a deeply engaging podcast.

#idk if any of this makes sense it’s just like. #all capitalism requires imperialism because constant growth is impossible to sustain and to pretend to sustain it you need to expand #and expansion and colonization necessitates war and war and imperialism and the capitalist system requires HUMANS as a resource #capitalism can’t survive without labor and that labor most heavily exploits marganalized people but also it exploits EVERYONE who isn’t #alreadt exploiting others #and so tsv literalizes the human resource that capitalism sustains itself on. it takes the cost we sacrifice day to day ALWAYS and turns it #into a big show gives it gratuetous fake blood and monster teeth and lots of screaming. and so you can listen to it and go ‘look how absurd #it is that they do human sacrifice at the construction company!’ but under capitalism this is EXACTLY the case except the fake blood is #real and there’s no monster teeth. it’s fucking fantastically done truely audio drama of all time #the silt verses #tsv

been thinking a lot about the masks

They're actually organic, and lie in a dormant state until someone holds it up to their face. A newly-possessed masked is clumsy and awkward; it has swiftly altered the victim's blood to make it a volatile substance to boil off the faces of future victims. They bleed freely when stressed and out of excitement when when seeing prey, before even starting pursuit.

Slowly, over time, a mask's roots grow into any and all available holes within the victim's face (mouth, nose, eyes, and in very old masked, ears) to gain a finer control of the corpse's movements and senses and to keep it in one piece longer, like a tree's roots in dirt. These masks have more restraint for when they bleed, to preserve their blood for the kill, and urban legend says that their blood burns hotter and eats through helmet metal quicker.

Masks are rather docile when not actively hunting. But when they finally get their hands on new prey, they melt off the victim's face and start the process making another one of itself, similar to budding in earth hydras. The new mask is deposited onto what's left of the victim's face, and boom, now you have two mimics!

You can in theory rip a mask off its host with enough brute force, but... well, now you have a dormant mask and a corpse. To actually kill a mask, you have to shatter it, whether it's on a body or not. Any good hammer will do.

#my art #lethal company #cw blood #cw body horror #they can also eat regular food but they hack up blood on it to dissolve it like a fruit fly #a lot of young masked decay away and get picked apart by scavengers but the older ones know to eat to sustain the corpse

“Our wonderful Moomin licensing partners have been brilliant- with new partners joining us and expansion into new categories including craft, men's fashion and a brand new partnership with Mattel, Inc. (exciting new product launching later this year!) We are thrilled that our partners are bringing new Moomin product to market every single month! There is no doubt that Moomin has not only stood the test of time for far more than the decade needed to qualify for the classic licensed property award but will continue to be a firm favourite for many many years to come.”

oh my god they’re making a moomin barbie doll 😱😂

#or a tove jansson doll gjdfkslfjd she'd hate that probably #jk i wonder what it is tho?? 🤔 #also seems weird for moom to partner with such a large company when they usually go for partners who focus on sustainability etc. #merch #also they're partnering with forbidden planet and sainsbury's im interested in what's gonna come out of those 👀

Fair Trade

By going beyond accreditation practices, consumers and companies can reach those at the bottom of the global social production ladder. Nonetheless, these efforts require purchasers to take personal responsibility for their impact, rather than relying solely on certifications. Simply by being more thoughtful and ethical in our sourcing practices, we have a huge opportunity to create brighter futures for all people and their families throughout the supply chain.

https://borgenproject.org/fair-trade-product-markets/

Despite many well-intentioned consumer attitudes, fair trade product markets frequently feature marketing strategies that conjure up imperialistic images [...]

[...] In products marked as fair trade, the certification might only apply to the product’s raw materials, rather than the full process of production. [...] A 2014 study theorizes that these practices are somewhat effective, “although on a comparatively modest scale relative to the size of national economies"

Social Media conversations about Fair Trade Practices:

[From user seriousxdelirium] - Like almost all other labels for coffee, it's absolutely useless. It only applies to growers large enough to afford the fees, and is not regulated well enough to make meaningful impact on the industry. If you really care about this sort of thing, do some research and develop an understanding of what you think a fair price is for farmers, and ask roasters what they paid for that coffee. Most good roasters are willing to be transparent about that sort of thing, and even publish transparency reports where you get a breakdown of the entire transaction.

From user Ramakrishna Surathu:

[...] Here are some reasons why fair trade may not always be as fair as it seems [...]

1. Market Access and Power Imbalances: Fair trade initiatives often focus on small-scale producers in developing countries, who may face challenges in accessing global markets and negotiating fair prices. Power imbalances within supply chains, influenced by factors such as geography, politics, and market dynamics, can limit the ability of producers to fully benefit from fair trade practices.

2. Certification Costs and Barriers: Obtaining fair trade certification can be costly and time-consuming for producers, particularly small-scale farmers and artisans with limited resources. Certification fees, auditing expenses, and compliance with standards may pose financial barriers and administrative burdens, leading some producers to forego certification altogether.

3. Limited Impact on Poverty Alleviation: While fair trade aims to reduce poverty and improve livelihoods, its impact may be limited by systemic barriers and structural inequalities. Addressing poverty requires broader social, economic, and political interventions beyond the scope of fair trade alone, such as access to education, healthcare, land rights, and infrastructure.

4. Market Volatility and Price Instability: Fair trade prices are often based on predetermined minimums, which may not fully reflect fluctuations in global market prices. Producers may be exposed to market volatility and fluctuations in demand, which can impact their income and livelihoods, particularly in commodity markets subject to price instability.

5. Complexity of Supply Chains: Fair trade supply chains can be complex and challenging to navigate, especially in regions with limited infrastructure and logistical challenges. Ensuring compliance with fair trade standards, maintaining transparency, and traceability throughout the supply chain can require significant investment in monitoring and management systems.

[...] Some manufacturers also use tricks. For example, some products do not explain exactly which part of a product was produced fairly. Another trick is to increase the percentage of "fair" ingredients by subtracting out the water content. The credibility is of course "fair watered".

[...] The statement here should not be that fair trade is useless, but one should always question things or understand them better and not just be blindly guided by seals in the purchase decision. Since this works so well, manufacturers like to use such seals or make one up themselves.

[...] rather than cutting out the middle man, and offering farmers a more direct compensation for their work, Fair Trade still facilitates a level of bureaucracy that supports an uneven distribution of revenue.

[...] The price point that separates Fair Trade produce from the rest of the market is often significant enough that lower-income households cannot afford to budget for it. This means that Fair Trade cannot reach mass markets in a way that would really effect wide-scale change, and instead serves as a token gesture to alleviate the guilt of middle-class consumers.

[...] [premium pricing coffee] is a worthy move if the coffee is of a high quality, but if it is not of sufficient quality to merit this price tag, then it risks turning consumers away from Fair Trade produce, and further impeding its reach to mass markets [...]

Fair Trade is a concept worth embracing, but first it must prioritize effective and transparent processes of production and distribution. What Fair Trade aims to achieve is admirable, but what it could potentially achieve is far greater [...]

I'm never going to judge someone for what they read, write, or draw.

I am going to judge you if you're mean to them about it. Block. Report if you think it's necessary. Blacklist. Move on. Those are the only appropriate actions for you.

Wishing harm on an actual person is far worse than anything they could ever create.

#I'm not in a good mental place so i can't be as protective as i want #and i haven't found arguing to be productive #but if you dislike something i enjoy i just unfollow. #if you like something that hurts me i just unfollow. #that's usually about it! #I'm not above having a spat and I'm still a little concerned about real world implications of certain fans' media analysis abilities #but genuinely. let's go put this energy into educating about palestine #or hounding companies until they adopt more sustainable practices or something #I'm not saying feelings about words aren't valid I'm saying the energy seems better used elsewhere #you are not helping anyone. you are hurting people. full stop. #vent about it if you need to but purity culture does not help. #I'm gonna add this to my pinned post #i think this is why I'm on a few blocklists and it took me actual years to realize that

i currently have mild nerve damage in one of my fingers bc ive started mass-making stickers by hand, using a scalpel to cut out every single one

i really hope its worth it oughghhg

#yaps #i had this brief turmoil over the sustainability of my work #like i print all my stickers on paper then add a thin vinyl coating to them #which i hope is better than a full vinyl sticker #bc man vinyl is not good for the planet but i want to make products that last #i do this bc its way more cost-effective but i hope it also kinda offsets the carbon footprint of using vinyl? #its def better than getting a company to make them for me #a lot of my art is about loving nature so i want my physical products to reflect that where its possible #yeah no ethical consumption under capitalism but i wanna do what i can #i do miss my fingertip tho #if anyone has any thoughts or suggestions lmk #its such a tricky thing to navigate esp when you're poor

Reeve Tuesti.

Funny cat man. Staunch proponent of improving living standards for people of all backgrounds and economic status. Enthusiast of city planning and publicly funded infrastructure. Expert in robotics, architecture, and civil engineering.

At the end of Final Fantasy VII, he finds himself free of the corrupt warmongering of the Shinra dictatorship, free to follow his heart and conscience, free to enact changes that will help the people of Midgar and restore the injured planet the best ways he knows how.

. . .

Four years later:

(On the Way to a Smile - "Episode: Denzel")

It was Reeve, former Shinra bigwig, now the leader of the WRO . . . folk whispered that the stench of death clung to him. . . . . . . . "You should know first of all that our organization isn't like it used to be. The days of welcoming anyone who was willing to join are long gone. If you want to help in the reconstruction, talk to your local district officer. The WRO is a military institution now."

reeve i swear to GOD

#Reeve you became like the most powerful and influential man in Gaia--you could have done anything you wanted #HOW did you fuck this up for yourself this badly #someone let this man be happy #also thinking about PowerWash Simulator when Heidegger all but calls Reeve a naïve peace-loving hippie #WELL WHO'S LAUGHING NOW #not Reeve because I doubt he actually likes his job #Reeve doesn't want to strategize military tactics #he wants to strategize the optimal number of public parks in a walkable eco-sustainable city with lots of trees and minimal light pollution #someone PLEASE let this man be happy #...because clearly Reeve isn't going to do it himself #final fantasy vii #final fantasy 7 #ff7 #ffvii #compilation of final fantasy vii #final fantasy vii spoilers #reeve tuesti #cait sith #world regenesis organization #shinra electric power company #kazushige nojima #nojima hates happy endings #gif #final fantasy vii gif #my gifs #But seriously what is going on with the WRO after Dirge of Cerberus? #The “World Regenesis” part of “World Regenesis Organization” is still the key phrase right? #anyway hi yes hello ff7 fandom i am new here

The one thing I've hated about neoliberalism is how many White Liberals have rushed in to become The World's Best Activist without actually listening to people who have been doing this shit for years.

Instead of listening to ACTUAL Palestinian/Jewish activists who have called out VERY SPECIFIC PEOPLE and BRANDS for zionism, White Liberals have taken to just telling everyone "boycott these 4827 brands" and "these 68937 people are zionists."

The key is long-term sustainable activism. And they're always keen on undermining it. We saw the same thing happen during the 2020 BLM Protests. They care too much about being The Most Moral Person Of All The Liberals for a short amount of time (and pats on the back), and not long-term, sustainable activism that requires more effort.

They don't genuinely KNOW why people are asking for brands to be boycotted and for people to be called out, they just know "I heard doing X thing was good so i'm gonna do X thing MORE THAN EVERYBODY ELSE."

#it's tiresome to see them list 53 different brands that everyone should boycott which isn't sustainable #the key is focusing on 3-5 MULTIBILLION DOLLAR COMPANIES #Who have the biggest impact and fucking with their pockets
