An AI-Assisted Strategic Thinking Builder for High-Impact Microlearning Design

Microlearning without strategic alignment often results in content consumption, not behavior change. This project introduces an AI-assisted strategic thinking builder that acts as a structured layer over generative AI to guide instructional decision-making. Through a five-step process - friction analysis, focused strategy, blueprint structuring, implementation timing, and behavioral evaluation - it helps designers create theory-aligned, behavior-driven microlearning without generating pre-made content. An embedded AI critic refines decisions, ensuring alignment, feasibility, and measurable workplace impact across higher education and corporate training contexts.
