BLENDED LEARNING OVERVIEW Mixing teaching/facilitation methods, learning styles, resource formats, technology, and a range of expertise into a learning stream Involves an intentional shift in learning format Allows for instructional strategies that combine different methods to achieve the goals of the curriculum

Learning Styles Disciplines Generational Differences

BLENDED LEARNING CONCEPTS ANCHOR the education in authentic situations and activities that are case based and emphasize knowledge construction rather than transmission of information

BLENDED LEARNING CONCEPTS SITUATE knowledge in multiple contexts and multiple representations of content to prepare for appropriate transfer of concepts

BLENDED LEARNING CONCEPTS CREATE cognitive flexibility by ensuring that information is seen from multiple perspectives

BLENDED LEARNING CONCEPTS SET THE STAGE but have the students collaborate and generate knowledge for themselves

BLENDED LEARNING: STEP 1 NEEDS ASSESSMENT!!!! Who are the learners? What are the goals? What is the optimal training and design? Analyze the training and course objectives Determine the method(s) to achieve the goal Aggregate the instruction into a blended learning approach
