Blended Learning Rubric: Design Principles
Core Principles of Effective Blended
Classrooms
Adopt instructional delivery models that maximize small group
or one-on-one time with students to deliver more •personalized
interaction.
Incorporate differentiation into all facets of instructional
practice to create a more student-centered learning
experience. (e.g. management, planning, assessment,
instruction).
Leverage digital content and assessments to help measure
students' true level of academic proficiency.
Support students' ability to learn, grow, and function
independently from the teacher to achieve their personal
academic goals.

Domain I. Develops a culture that values the intention of a BL classroom
Strand B. Provide students with opportunities to develop and master their
personalized academic goals
How would you rate yourself on the rubric for this domain/strand? 3
Strengths
•
Opportunities for Growth
I put in a system for tracking damages to
hardware and students understand the
consequences of misusing their laptops. I
have not had major issues with vandalism.
•
The time students spend on the computer is
still pretty structured. I need to provide a
process for students to work on un-mastered
goals as needed.
Request for Support
•
Focus: Student driven content mastery approach
•
Where I need help: Feedback on my plan/approach and observing student behaviors
•
Timing: Plan will be ready by mid-November, would like to be observed week of Nov. 19 .
