BlendKit Course: BlendKit Reader: Chapter 1 | Blended Learning Toolkit - 5 views

  • “There is clear consensus that the best strategies for design begins [sic] by clearly defining course objectives before coming up with course activities, assignments and assessments. Course objectives are particularly critical for blended courses because objectives can inform content delivery mechanism (in class or online), pedagogy (bridging between the classroom and online activities), and requisite amount and locations for class meetings and interactions” (p. 11).

      I believe this is the case in any type of course, but I appreciate this being highlighter here since course objectives are key to determine our activities and assessments.

      I agree, course objectives are also essential as it will determine which activities should be online-based or face-to-face
  • blended learning lends itself to learner-centered, teacher-guided (as opposed to teacher-directed), interactive, and student-collaborative learning.
  • Students should be able to perform required tasks online with little or no prompting by the instructor. Of course, teachers should guide their students along, but when a student can accomplish a task online with limited assistance, that student encounters a learning experience that is deeper and more rewarding.

A time-based blended learning model - 6 views

  •  
    This paper proposes a new model of blended learning in which physical teaching environments give way to time. Time and synchronicity become the primary elements of the learning environments. In addition, the authors suggest that the time-based model as an educational "new normal" results in technologies as enablers rather than disruptors of learning continuity.

    Key Takeaways Social presence remains the key to a successful learning experience, and understanding social presence, with its critical connection to learning and community building, allows us to better support faculty and students.

    This is an international consortium about quality blended learning.

    We've been using Quality Matters for several years and although it might appear that the focus is "quality in online courses", the rubric and process works well for blended learning as well. https://www.qualitymatters.org/

The Process Approach to Online and Blended Learning | Faculty Focus - 14 views

  •  
    A good simple approach. A three staged process for blended learning design: Absorb - Do - Connect
  •  
    "The process model consists of three stages: Absorb-During this stage, students are gaining basic knowledge. This can include reading a chapter in the textbook. Do-Students then engage in an activity such as a discussion before the face-to-face session (in the case of a blended course) or a synchronous online session in the case of a totally online course. Connect-Students apply knowledge to real-world situations."
  •  
    I've helped faculty implement this model in online courses and think it has been very successful. While a model like ADDIE provides a structured approach to designing an entire course, this Absorb, Do, Connect model, along with models like Gagne's 9 events of instruction provide us with models for how to structure individual lessons and keep them consistent.
