As a strategy and as a learning solution, blended is presently better received and more effective than online learning alone. Blended is usually taken to mean a blend or mix of classroom (in-person, face-to-face) and online techniques - where learners spend some of their time learning online; and other time in classrooms. Classroom learning is good for the immediacy it offers, the personal interaction. Alternatively, online learning better supports reflective activities, where learners need to think and act more deeply about content.
Steven Parker on 18 Mar 10"there is no procedural method to go from data to wisdom... Data does not create information; information does not create knowledge and knowledge does not create wisdom. People use their knowledge to make sense of data and information. People create information that represents their knowledge, which can then be more widely shared."
