Reinforcement works well in small doses. Spaced repetition through brief review sessions strengthens long-term retention.

Complex topics still need comprehensive treatment. Microlearning supplements but doesn't replace deeper learning experiences.

The key is matching format to purpose. Use microlearning where it fits; use longer formats where they're needed.
