Hybrid/Blended/Online CourseDesign

""For teachers, and schools, and classroom learning, there's an incredibly important role to play which is about giving kids access across the board to a baseline of standards, literacies, expectations, about what they need to participate in contemporary society…to be reflective, and to also take opportunity of the fact that you really have kids and adults in a shared space that's safe, that's sanctioned, that gives an opportunity to reflect in every day life….What we're saying by valuing informal learning is not that we should abandon formal learning, but that we should get those working together in a much more coordinated way." Mimi Ito, Associate Researcher, UC Irvine"

"Blended learning course design In designing a blended course, a simple way to start is to imagine a discrete unit of learning, for example, a particular topic or a chapter of the textbook. Here is a three-step process: Establish clear learning goals for the topic. Design activities to help students meet the learning goals. Sort the activities into two categories: online and face-to-face. None of these steps is particularly easy. Writing effective learning goals is a skill that teachers must constantly hone. Designing activities requires a creative mind that is pedagogically grounded. Addressing the third step could be the easiest of the required actions but requires much pedagogical savvy. In considering each step, the following questions might help: What do I really want students to learn? How can I ensure that students read the book prior to class? What lower-level activities can student complete online prior to class? What higher-level activities can be accomplished during class? What higher-level activities can students complete after a topic has been discussed face-to-face? Which activities require a grade and which activities will students do because they can immediately see the link to other graded activities?"
