Online Microlearning Course Development Strategies for Enhancing Bullying Prevention Knowledge

Mei Rismawati, Nabil Muttaqin

Abstract


Workplace violence remains a critical concern in Indonesia, manifesting not only through explicit acts of aggression but also through more subtle and pervasive forms of bullying. These behaviors, often overlooked, have the potential to significantly undermine organizational culture and compromise the psychological well-being of employees. In response, a targeted research initiative has been launched to develop an innovative online training program entitled “Tackling Bullying: Prevention, Perpetrator Intervention, and Victim Advocacy.” This training adopts an innovative microlearning approach, breaking down complex concepts into manageable modules. Given the increasing demand for digital learning services, such courses hold significant promise for workplaces. The research follows the ADDIE model (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation) to ensure a comprehensive analysis of participant needs and training objectives. The resulting curriculum consists of ten modules, each containing video and text-based learning materials, with an average expert rating of 3.42, indicating the effectiveness of the course. These findings underscore the relevance and potential impact of anti-bullying education through such digital training in today’s learning landscape.
