Introduction
Education is rapidly evolving to become smarter, more accessible, inclusive, flexible, and personalized. Driving this transformation is digital technology, accelerated further by the urgency brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic.
As EdTech tools become more advanced, the demand for a hybrid style of education continues to grow.
If you're an institute of higher education, you're likely aiming to create synergy between online and offline learning—and Blended Learning is the model to make it happen.
Let’s explore what it means and how to make it work.
What is Blended Learning?
Blended Learning combines traditional, face-to-face learning with online, digital instruction. It offers students the best of both worlds—engaging in-person sessions, supplemented with flexible, screen-based content.
A typical blended learning setup includes:
Live webinars
Quizzes
Videos
Surveys
Online discussion forums
Self-paced assignments
While terms like remote learning, hybrid learning, and blended learning are sometimes used interchangeably, Blended Learning specifically refers to a purposeful integration of online and offline learning methods.
