Blended or hybrid learning, an instructional delivery mode in which instruction is conducted partly online and partly face-to-face, has emerged as one of the fastest-growing and most successful instructional models to deliver flexible learning options for today's learners. This site I think would serve us instructional designers who, after this MOOC would have to deliver professional development training to our faculty. This, together with the course materials in BlendKit would make for an awesome PD experience.

This presentation from Donna Ziegenfuss of the University of Utah's Center for Teaching and Learning Excellence demonstrates a model and process used in a graduate-level online course based on Dee Fink's approach to 'backwards planning".

Thank you for sharing this and the Fink document below. Donna presented at our Instructional Design summit. I use Fink worksheets with many faculty I work with here at SLCC.

Lit review of the effectiveness of online asynchronous environments from 2003. The section on online interactions and the descriptions of learner-learner, learner-content, and learner-instructor interaction within the Community of Inquiry model is a good introduction to the CoI framework and interactions online.

Excellent summary of some of the online commentary and a great synthesis model for activity design that goes beyond simple lecture flipping

Mentioned in one of the BlendKit forums but nice resource to revisit. 4 parts with reflection for students, teachers, principals and this one whcih is a general taxonomy of reflection based on Bloom's

I chose this article as it relates well to the ch 5 discussion regarding quality in blended courses.

Beth - so interested to see that you chose this article!! I participated in this study as the Quality Matters trainer. So the two groups (short training, long training) worked with me to learn how to apply QM to improve their courses. We have been Quality Matters subscribers for 6 years and incorporate it into all the training and development of online courses.

I thought this was a good link for ch 2 which discussed different learning models.

Interesting Infographic that looks at what is 'blended learning', why it's spreading and how it works (with examples).

Great infographic on blended learning with embed code. Takes the approach of Blended Learning as a Disruptive Innovation

Excellent breakdown of different blended learning models - there are 6! Anyone using an LMS (or other online tools) to supplement classroom teaching is already in "Face-to-Face Driver" mode.
