Blended Learning

What is blended learning?


“Blended learning, also known as hybrid learning, is an approach to education
that combines online educational materials and opportunities for interaction online
with traditional place-based classroom methods.”
Types of blended Learning
1. Face-to-face driver model
This model offers what is the most similar to a traditional classroom
experience. Learners join a live webinar or meeting (like Zoom or Google Meet),
receive live instruction, and at the conclusion of each session are given homework
or assignments to be completed before the next session.
2. Flipped model
The flipped model is similar to the face-to-face driver model discussed above,
except that learners are provided with learning materials and resources (often
distributed via an LMS) before each virtual classroom experience.
3. Enriched virtual model
This model allows learners to set the pace of their learning, and complete most
of their coursework virtually. Learners are given the opportunity to attend
webinars with the instructor at their convenience, but ultimately it’s the learner
that determines how much of their learning includes live interaction with the
instructor.
4. Flex model
The flex learning model offers learners the opportunity to direct their
learning according to what works best for them. They are able to jump between
synchronous and asynchronous instruction, individual assignments, and even group
learning. Instructors are available to answer questions and provide feedback, but
it’s up to each participant how and when they utilize instructor resources.
5. Rotation model
The rotation learning model is something of a grab bag. Learners are divided
into smaller groups, and then they rotate between individual instruction (typically
via a pre-recorded webinar), live group instruction (via Zoom or another webinar
tool), and self-guided assignments. Where the flex learning model allows learners
to ultimately decide which methods of learning are most effective, the rotation
learning model offers a similar level of flexibility, but determined by the
instructor.
6. Online driver model
The online driver learning model offers the maximum amount of learner autonomy.
Participants make their way through the learning models at their own pace, and
according to their own drive and motivation. While learners are still given the
opportunity to communicate with trainers as needed, such communication is not a
requirement of completing the training
