Artificial intelligence and personalization: the e-learning trends that will matter for professionals

In the constantly evolving field of vocational training, online training technologies, supported by artificial intelligence (AI), are revolutionizing the way in which knowledge is delivered and assimilated. Didask, as an innovative leader in this sector, combines the power of generative AI with a pedagogical approach carefully designed to meet the specific needs of each learner.

Discover 5 key trends in the sector according to Didask experts and researchers.

1. Personalized and adaptive learning: a growing need

The personalization of learning is no longer a luxury but a necessity in the current landscape of professional e-learning. Through the use of behavioral data and user performance, Didask offers learning paths that dynamically adapt to the level and individual goals of learners. This personalized approach ensures that each training session is maximized for the benefit of the user, increasing instructional effectiveness and engagement. In particular, we developed this subject in our article”Adaptive learning, the El Dorado of commitment? Yes, but...“and”Adaptive Learning: Why and how to apply it in vocational training“.

Indeed, if you maximize the engagement of your learners at the beginning of the course, you are also acting on the dropout rate (the proportion of learners who drop out during the course of the course). Quite logical when you finally think about it! Learn how Didask combines adaptive learning and generative AI here.

2. Integrating AI for dynamic and interactive content

Didask uses AI to create training content that is not only informative but also interactive and engaging. AI tools analyze existing content to extract essential elements and generate exercises, simulations, and assessments that precisely meet the needs of learners. This ability to dynamically generate relevant content radically transforms the learning experience, making it more immersive and effective.

In less than 5 minutes, starting from your content, you generate a module of 10 to 15 minutes, with The key messages, the right formats Of exercises, the questions, the responses, the explanations of each answer, royalty-free illustration images. In our market, we are the first to have made this bet. Our Educational AI is now composed of more than 30 cascading instruction sets (prompt) in accordance with the various educational objectives.

Didask Educational AI has already helped hundreds of businesses create more than 3000 hours of training for their employees. This AI-assisted content was able to be created on average 5 times faster only when creating a classic e-learning course.

3. The increased importance of microlearning and flexibility

In a world where time is an increasingly valuable resource, microlearning is an ideal solution for professionals on the go or those who juggle busy schedules. Didask embraces this trend by offering short and targeted lessons, allowing users to learn at their own pace and according to their availability. This flexible approach not only optimizes learning moments but also promotes better long-term information retention.

Moreover, from a more operational point of view, this microlearning approach allows three things:

• be able to reuse Microlearnings (also commonly called granules or capsules and representing 1min-1min20 of content) in different courses
• be able to follow the performance of each microlearning, at a level of precision never known before, in order to be in a process of continuous and factual improvement of training
• optimize your adaptive learning by making possible an infinity of highly personalized combinations for everyone, i.e. more effective learning paths

Didask therefore allows you to arrange your content in a flexible way, in order to allow you to reuse to conduct training courses from one group of learners to another (for example, within a company with several institutions, from one institution to another) or from one period to another within the same establishment. This makes it possible to capitalize intelligently on your content.

4. Video and multimedia formats for maximum engagement

Recognizing the predominant role of multimedia in modern learning, Didask integrates high quality videos and other multimedia formats to enrich its courses. These visual and interactive resources capture learners' attention and facilitate the understanding of complex concepts, which is essential in specialized professional fields.

It's simple, the platform allows you to integrate all second-generation formats (videos, gifs, podcasts, padlets, Genialy etc.) in order to offer designers who use it all the flexibility to create effective and ambitious learning experiences.

5. Analytics for continuous monitoring and improvement

With the integration of advanced analytical tools, Didask allows trainers and training managers to monitor learners' progress in real time. Where Didask goes further than the LMS on the market, is that its AI directly formulates recommendations for improvement where it has analyzed that there is the most need, based on the data collected. This allows you to identify biases that are not always visible to the naked eye and saves valuable time by avoiding reviewing all of your modules every morning. For example, in an exercise with several possible answers, the AI will detect an answer whose text is much longer compared to the others, which can give an indication that the learners' behavior during the exercise is biased.

These valuable data thus help to adjust training programs to meet the needs of users more effectively and to continuously improve the training offer.

Conclusion: Towards a connected and personalized future

Advances in the field of e-learning, especially those powered by Didask, show that the future of vocational training will be increasingly personalized, interactive and supported by artificial intelligence. Professionals who embrace these new ways of learning don't just keep up with technological change — they lead it, equipping themselves with the tools to succeed in an ever-changing professional environment.

The next generation of LLMs*, which will start with the release of GPT-5, should push the reasoning capacity of LLMs even further and make them true semi-autonomous agents capable of organizing a series of tasks to respond to given problems. E-learning is just one step for Didask in our mission to improve everyone's skills and productivity. LLMs open doors to go even further, in particular by venturing into the field of **Personalized Adaptive Learning**, with an AI coach for each learner in the future.

In fact, we are currently experimenting with”teaching assistants” based on AI, embedded directly into your work tools. These assistants can answer questions from your learners, or provide them with feedback on tasks directly in the workplace. Idem, these assistants are based and trained on the content you have submitted, hence the relevance of their answers. If you want to see in action what this would mean for your company and to be a pioneer of the latest innovations in e-learning, ask us quickly for a demo!
