11. The Course Resource Appraisal Modeller

12. A modelling tool for thinking about the impact of moving to blended learning

13. The Course Resource Appraisal Modeller
Define learner time and teacher time needed for each type of activity:
Video lecture
Peer discussion
Using digital tools
Assignments
Peer reviews
Tutor-supported forums…
Returns feedback on learner experience and teaching costs

14. Modelling learning benefits vs teaching costs
Learning experience and…
Teaching hours
Break-even by Run 2 on these assumptions

15. Discussion: Could learning design tools for teachers help them move to blended learning?
