Alzheimer's disease is one of the most common diseases in older adults, and as the disease progresses, the need for daily care increases. Caregivers of Alzheimer's Disease patients face a variety of stresses and work pressures. Receiving professional and continuous training is one of the effective ways to improve their skills and competencies. A new approach to education is microlearning, where microeducational content is provided to learners. Microlearning as a pedagogical technique focuses on designing learning modules through micro-steps in a digital media environment. These activities can be integrated into learners' daily lives and tasks. Unlike "traditional" e-learning methods, microlearning often favours technology delivered through push media, thus reducing the cognitive load on the learner. Microlearning educational methods have been shown to be effective and efficient in educating and delivering materials to caregivers of older adults with Alzheimer's disease. This paper begins with a brief introduction to microlearning. And it details the key features and benefits of microlearning. Microlearning offers potential benefits to Alzheimer's Disease patients and their caregivers with its concise and focused approach. Secondly, machine learning enhances the design and delivery of microlearning, helping to provide a more personalised and effective learning experience. Machine learning plays a role in the design of microlearning. To conclude, microlearning offers a promising avenue of support and care for Alzheimer's Disease patients. Microlearning also provides a valuable resource for carers and healthcare professionals to gain the knowledge and skills needed to provide effective care.

Microlearning is an increasingly relevant approach to learning in the digital age, prioritizing information in small chunks such as short videos, infographics, or interactive quizzes to improve student understanding, knowledge retention, engagement, and motivation. Previous research shows the effectiveness of microlearning in various contexts, such as higher education, corporate training, and professional development. However, there are challenges in defining and measuring its effectiveness and its impact on student learning outcomes. This study aims to analyze a systematic literature review (SLR) to understand the efficacy of microlearning and its influencing factors more holistically. This study is a qualitative research using the SLR method. This study used a data collection method in the form of systematic observation. This study involved 23 eligible articles. After the data was collected, it was analyzed using the qualitative descriptive data analysis technique. As a result of the various references provided, the overview of the literature found on microlearning covers a wide range of relevant topics and applications. Thus, it can be concluded that microlearning has demonstrated its effectiveness in improving students' understanding of concepts and ability to retain knowledge in several areas of education. Thus, this research will provide deeper insights into the potential and effective micro-learning strategies in various educational contexts.
