  1. Blended Learning “A blend of traditional learning methods with online learning.”

  2. Assumptions • All students don’t learn the same way. • All students don’t learn at the same speed. • Some students lack prior skills and knowledge. • Some students already possess essential skills and knowledge.

  3. What is Blended Learning? • Combining F2F and online delivery. • Web Enhanced • Web Focused

  4. What is Blended Learning? • “ a combination of face-to-face and online media, with "seat time" significantly reduced.” • Richard Voos (2004 - http://www.aln.org/publications/view/v2n1/blended1.htm)

  5. From The Handbook of Blended Learning, Curtis J. Bonk & Charles R. Graham: Blended learning systems combine face to face instruction with computer-mediated instruction. Traditionally, these learning environments have co-existed as separate methods addressing the needs of different audiences.

  6. Blended Learning Blended Learning is an approach to course design that meaningfully brings together the best of both face-to-face & online learning. It is not intended to supplant either of these individual approaches, rather to build from each to create a new, more effective learning experience for students.

  7. “It’s a hybrid world; all of us live in a face to face world & an online world.” • Carol Twigg, Executive Director of the Center for Academic Transformation, RIT Blended Learning is the application of this mix toward an instructional effort.

  8. What Does it Look Like? Blended Learning exists on a continuum between 100% face-to-face & 100% online course materials: Completely F2F Completely Online Blended

  9. Rapid-Lean’s approach An integrated approach combining face-to-face & online instructional strategies with the goal of reducing classroom time.

  10. Overview: Why “Blended”? Advances in technology make the incorporation of online instructional materials possible. But why do it? • Increase student access to materials while retaining a sense of community. • Innovative, flexible, participatory and student-centered. • Capacity to effectively engage students and facilitate application of learning in practice. • Reduces seat time. • Early evidence of positive impact on learning outcomes.

  11. Discussion Blended learning as a broad instructional approach in higher education remains in its formative stage. Growth in the corporate sector has been steady, and there is anticipation of continued growth in higher education.
