11. Blended Learning in the GC21 E-Academy ?
In a blended learning approach the online modules are completed by a face-to-face workshop. The entire course will be supported by a tutor, who will be in direct contact with the participants throughout the modules. He/She can, where necessary, direct participants' questions to the outside expert. The continuous interaction amongst participants themselves, as well as between the participants, tutor and expert is an integral part of the course's design. There are several tools available on the Global Campus 21 learning platform that enables interaction, communication and co-operation.
