Influence of Microlearning Technology on Student Motivation in Higher Education Institutions

The article examines the impact of microlearning technology on students’ motivation. The experimental (microlearning technology) and control (traditional learning) groups compared the study results. Statistical analysis was conducted to determine the answers to the motivation scale and to identify the significance of differences in students’ answers in the control and experimental groups. The Scheffe method was used to determine the source of differences in the responses of the study groups. The analysis of the study shows that microlearning technology has better results due to greater student engagement and learning motivation than traditional learning.
