What is blended learning?

“to combine or mix mode of Web-based technology to accomplish an educational goal”.

“to combine various pedagogical approaches (e.g. constructivisim, behaviourism, cognitivism) to produce an optimal learning outcome with or without instructional technology”.

“to combine any form of instructional technology with face-to-face instructor-led training.

(Driscoll, 2002)

Therefore blended learning is……

An integrated approach to teaching and learning that includes multiple modes of instruction and students practice.

In other words, blended learning is a formal education program in which a

“brick-and-mortar” school structure,

face-to-face classroom methods are

combined with computer-mediated

activities

Task

In pairs or threes think about the pros and cons of blending one of your course.

Page 8: Blended learning. Aims:  Define blended learning.  To differentiate the four models of blended learning.

ProsCan save time, effort and cost.More effective than single methods of instructionAllow sharing with other learners from various

regions.Suit individual learning stylesEncourage self-directed learningUse a wide range of educational activities

ConsCan be a complex job to bring the right blends

together, involve more work and planningStudents unfamiliar and unable to make the most

out of the experience.Learning methods that don’t fit the course

objectives.

ModelsBlended Learning can generally be classified

into four modelsRotational modelFlex modelA la carte modelEnriched virtual model

Page 11: Blended learning. Aims:  Define blended learning.  To differentiate the four models of blended learning.

Rotation ModelStudents rotate on a fixed schedule between learning online

in a one-to-one, self-paced environment and sitting in a classroom with a traditional face-to-face teacher.

Students rotate at fixed points in time between a classroom and computer lab

Students learn predominantly onlineThe classroom is generally reserved

for other learning activities.

Flex model

Online learning forms the backbone of a student's learningStudents still attend a brick-and-mortar school every day. But every class is divided into online instruction and face-to-face

time with teachers rather than just one or two courses, as in the rotation model.

Programs with a flex model feature an online platform that delivers most of the curricula.

Teachers provide on-site support on a flexible and

adaptive as-needed basis through in-person tutoring

sessions and small group sessions.

A la carte model

Provides students with opportunities to take online courses that supplement in-person courses.

Online learning is remote, and Traditional learning is in a brick-and-mortar

school. Formerly known as Self-Blend

Enriched virtual model:

An online platform and teacher deliver all curricula for the most part, students work remotely.

the whole class is on the same schedule, � �meaning each students takes the same

exact course load of online and offline

classes
