Objectives
To differentiate between online, blended and web-enhanced delivery formats
To be able to define blended learning Describe strengths of Blended format Identify strategies for designing online for a
Blended Format Locate valuable resources Define a module structure Describe “the blend”

Sloan-C Definition Blended learning courses combine online
and classroom learning activities and resources in an optimal way to improve student learning outcomes and to address important institutional issues.
Classroom attendance (“seat time”) is reduced.
Who is Sloan-C?
![Page 7: MCLI T&L with Tech Conf 2008](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042813/54598de8b1af9fc15d8b4ca0/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
What’s In a Name? What you call it is not important; but a defined and consistent model is
Blended learning is an optimized pedagogical approach
It is not, an arbitrary time division between online and F2F

1. True2. False
“Blended learning = reduce classroom time therefore: Blended learning is half the work”
![Page 9: MCLI T&L with Tech Conf 2008](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042813/54598de8b1af9fc15d8b4ca0/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Benefits Increased connectedness with
students Communicate both online and
face-to-face Potential to increase and
extend instructor-student and student-student connectivity
![Page 10: MCLI T&L with Tech Conf 2008](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042813/54598de8b1af9fc15d8b4ca0/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
More Benefits Discussions started in class are continued
online Integration of out-of- and in-class activities
allows more effective use of traditional class time
Students who rarely take part in class discussions are more likely to participate online

1. True2. False
As I prepare for my Blended, some things clearly can be done online therefore, I can simply move half of “my stuff” online and be done with it.

Faculty Report Learn more in blended
format Write better papers,
performed better on exams, produced higher quality projects, and were capable of more meaningful discussions on course material when reflecting online
![Page 13: MCLI T&L with Tech Conf 2008](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042813/54598de8b1af9fc15d8b4ca0/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
As well as… Are better able to master concepts and
apply what they have learned Develop higher-order skills of critical
thinking, problem-solving, and the ability to apply theoretical models to real-world data

Transform Pedagogy Lead to using more participatory and
student-centered learning activities Transform the teacher-student
relationship to be more centered on student learning
Transform the instructor role to be more facilitative and learner-centered

1. True2. False
Faculty have reported that Blended, if designed well, is the “best of both worlds”.

To Begin
•Objectives affect the design & content of your courseObjectives affect the design & content of your course
![Page 17: MCLI T&L with Tech Conf 2008](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042813/54598de8b1af9fc15d8b4ca0/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Questions to answer What are the core concepts your students
must learn for each module? What do they need to know? What do they need to be able to do? What will they know as a result of my
instruction?
![Page 18: MCLI T&L with Tech Conf 2008](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042813/54598de8b1af9fc15d8b4ca0/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Objectives Objectives should be clearly stated and
easy for students to understand Objectives should include content
mastery skills and critical thinking skills
![Page 19: MCLI T&L with Tech Conf 2008](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042813/54598de8b1af9fc15d8b4ca0/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Redesign Process Re-examine course goals and objectives Design learning activities to meet these
goals and objectives Effectively integrate the activities within
the online and face-to face meetings Ensure a transition between the two is
logical and clear
![Page 20: MCLI T&L with Tech Conf 2008](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042813/54598de8b1af9fc15d8b4ca0/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Consider Make transition from lectures and
presentation to a more student-centered active learning
Facilitate online discussions and small group activities
New forms of assessment of student
![Page 21: MCLI T&L with Tech Conf 2008](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042813/54598de8b1af9fc15d8b4ca0/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Redesign Work Defining the blend Rethinking how to use class time Rethinking how to facilitate online
interaction Learn more about technology Budgeting time and starting redesign

Cautions Scheduling and communication
challenges as courses meet online and face-to-face
Work overload for faculty and students
Students need understand their active role in the learning environment

Modules Course content broken down into “chunks” Course structure in a repetitive manner allowing
for easy navigation Content organized in conceptually related
blocks Consistent, logical, clear, common sense, apply
past experience, let the content control the chunks
