look like?
A. This?
B. This?
C. This?
ANSWER: YES TO ALL!
“The definition of blended learning is a formal
education program in which a student learns at least in
part through online learning, with some element of
student control over time, place, path, and/or pace; at
least in part in a supervised brick-and-mortar location
away from home; and the modalities along each
student’s learning path within a course or subject are
connected to provide an integrated learning
experience.”
-Christensen Institute; a non-profit “Think Tank” dedicated to
improving the world through disruptive innovation.
