Blended Learning

• Mix traditional and on-line learning• Traditional learning– Bright students get bored– Meant for the students around the mean– Comparatively slow one get left out

• On-line courses lets students learn at their own pace

• Can these two be blended optimally?

changeable

• Updated books can be delivered immediately,

anywhere

Interesting Models

• Innosight institute has suggested some interesting models for blended learning

• http://www.innosightinstitute.org/media-room/publications/blended-learning/blended-learning-model-definitions

• This could be the basis for arriving at a future model that is effective

Rotation Model• Rotation model• Within a given course or subject students rotate on a

fixed schedule or at the teacher’s discretion between learning modalities

• at least one of which is online learning• Other modalities might include activities such as– small-group or full-class instruction– group projects– individual tutoring– pencil-and-paper assignments.

Flex Model• Flex model• content and instruction are delivered primarily by the

Internet• students move on an individually customized, fluid

schedule among learning modalities• teacher-of-record is on-site. The teacher-of-record or

other Adults provide face-to-face support on a flexible and adaptive as-needed basis– small-group instruction, group projects, and

individual tutoring. • Face-to-face support may vary

Debasis Das www.exemplarconsulting.in 23

Self-Blend Model

• Self-Blend model• Students choose to take one or more courses entirely

online to supplement their traditional courses.• Teacher-of-record is the online teacher. Students may

take the online courses either on the brick-and-mortar campus or off-site.

• Differs from full-time online learning and the Enriched-Virtual model. It is not a whole-school experience. Students self-blend some individual online courses and take other courses at a brick-and-mortar campus with face-to-face teachers.

Debasis Das www.exemplarconsulting.in 24

Enriched Virtual Model• Enriched-Virtual model• A whole-school experience in which within each course students

divide their time between attending a brick-and-mortar campus and learning remotely using online delivery of content and instruction.

• Many Enriched-Virtual programs began as full-time online schools and then developed blended programs to provide students with brick-and-mortar school experiences.

• The Enriched-Virtual model differs from the Flipped Classroom because in Enriched-Virtual programs, students seldom attend the brick-and-mortar campus every weekday. It differs from the Self-Blend model because it is a full-school experience, not a course-by-course model.
