What are current challenges of Ca education?
In addition to funding…
Textbook to Online Teaching and Learning. Rob Darrow, EdD. Rob @ onlinelearningvisions.com. Feb. 2012.
How does blended learning meet some of these challenges?
Time Flexibility Students take greater control of their own
learning Teachers become more than “sage on the
stage” Customize learning for students
First, let’s define blended learning…
Textbook to Online Teaching and Learning. Rob Darrow, EdD. Rob @ onlinelearningvisions.com. Feb. 2012.
A few realities about blended teaching and learning
Blended Learning will not save you money in the short term (maybe in the long term)
But it does provide greater access which can be considered a cost savings
Not many districts measure how many students stay in the district
It does not work well without highly trained and skilled teachers
In California, there is no ongoing funding stream for online/blended learning courses as part of ADA
Textbook to Online Teaching and Learning. Rob Darrow, EdD. Rob @ onlinelearningvisions.com. Feb. 2012.
California Ed Finance 101
ADA (“seat time” - 240 minutes each day)
Independent Study (student gets hours based on work and physically meets a teacher once a week).
Charter (ADA or Ind Study)
1 student in school for 1 day = 1 ADA.

Teaching and Learning What is the student
doing and where is the student?
What is the teacher doing and where is the teacher?
What and where is the content / curriculum?
Textbook to Online Teaching and Learning. Rob Darrow, EdD. Rob @ onlinelearningvisions.com. Feb. 2012.
We are pretty clear
Face-to-Face Teaching
Students in classroom Teacher in classroom Interaction face-to-face,
mostly verbal, some visual
Fixed schedule of classes to attend
Prescribed curriculum based on standards / use of textbooks
Online Teaching
Students online Teacher online (minimal
face-to-face interaction) Interaction online video
conferencing, email – more visual, less verbal
Flexible schedule for work completion
Prescribed curriculum online based on standards / text
Textbook to Online Teaching and Learning. Rob Darrow, EdD. Rob @ onlinelearningvisions.com. Feb. 2012.
Blended teaching and learning is more than
plugging a kid into a computer
It involves …the studentthe teacher the curriculum (content)
About transforming teaching leading to a more customized approach to teaching and learning

Confusion about“blended learning?”
Blended learning should be viewed as a pedagogical approach that combines the effectiveness and socialization opportunities of the classroom with the technologically enhanced active learning possibilities of the online environment,
• Dziuban, Hartman and Moskal (2004)
Textbook to Online Teaching and Learning. Rob Darrow, EdD. Rob @ onlinelearningvisions.com. Feb. 2012.
Confusion about“blended learning?”
Blended learning “combines face-to-face learning with computer mediated learning.”
(Bonk and Graham, 2006. Handbook of blended learning: Global perspectives, local designs. http://www.publicationshare.com/).
Textbook to Online Teaching and Learning. Rob Darrow, EdD. Rob @ onlinelearningvisions.com. Feb. 2012.
Another definition
“Blended learning is any time a student learns at least in part at a supervised brick and mortar location away from home and at least in part through online delivery with some element of student control over time, place, path, and/or pace.”
(Horn & Staker, 2011)

Why does this matter?
The goal is student achievement, high school diplomas and careers, but…if we don’t know what “it” looks like: We can’t count it We can’t study it (researchers) We don’t know if it’s making a difference We can’t teach it to others

A Quiz! - Practice
Students are told to take out their math books and turn to p. 45 to learn about adding fractions.
Textbook to Online Teaching and Learning. Rob Darrow, EdD. Rob @ onlinelearningvisions.com. Feb. 2012.
Quiz 1
Students must create a short video to demonstrate their learning about the Pythagorean Theorem in their Algebra course. Students put together the key points, add in their voice and background music and then upload the video to YouTube. The web address is posted in the assignment area for the teacher to grade.
Textbook to Online Teaching and Learning. Rob Darrow, EdD. Rob @ onlinelearningvisions.com. Feb. 2012.
Quiz 2
Students are directed by the teacher to go to the National Geographic website to complete the activity there about the different continents of the world. Students turn in the assignment digitally through the online classroom drop box.
Textbook to Online Teaching and Learning. Rob Darrow, EdD. Rob @ onlinelearningvisions.com. Feb. 2012.
Quiz 3
Students are working together on a wiki to identify the key concepts needed to know about when taking the Advanced Placement U.S. History exam. The students decide which students will focus on different topics and then set a time when they can meet online to review each part of the wiki.
Textbook to Online Teaching and Learning. Rob Darrow, EdD. Rob @ onlinelearningvisions.com. Feb. 2012.
Quiz 4
Students are presenting about what they learned about the Battle of Gettysburg in the Civil War. They have created a PowerPoint and are advancing the slides on the digital white board in the front of the classroom. In addition, each student listening has a “clicker” to answer questions about the presentation while the students are presenting.
