- Blending Learning Scheme 14 PhaseWhenWhereWhat 1Before
classOnline Low-level learning (pre-class assignment initiates
feedback; ask students to respond to a passage, a video, audio, a
chart or a rubric; instructor evaluates knowledge or skill and
incorporates this into mid-level learning) 2In classFace-to-face
Mid-level learning (in-class dialogue builds upon what students
conveyed in phase 1; emphasize student engagement and building on
facts; could have a Socratic discussion, a lab, a lecture) 3After

- Macro Structures for Blending 1.A course normally meets f2f
four hrs 1x/wk: reduce each class by 1-2 hours (25-50%); but
require students to complete assignments online 1-2 hours/wk 2.A
course ordinarily meets M & W: blend to meet M & W in weeks
1, 2, 11, but meet on W only during weeks 3- 10; all other
activities online 3.For a practicum or capstone course, weeks 1-4,
10-11 could be f2f; weeks 5-9 devoted to online activities 15

my subject? What will be different? How will I connect with
students? Will I be successful? How much work is needed? Do I have
the necessary skills? What kind of training will I need? Will I
receive assistance? Do I have the right hardware and software? Will
I be fairly compensated? Will the institution be behind me? Will I
be happy and satisfied? 44
