Blended learning is a combination of traditional face-to-face teaching in a brick-and-mortar classroom, with remote teaching based in an online classroom. Focusing on digital solutions that increase student engagement and autonomy while allowing flexibility, blended learning is re-imagining compulsory education settings and creating future-driven classrooms.
The terms ‘Blended learning’ and ‘Hybrid learning’ are often used synonymously. Despite many similarities such as using e-learning practices in conjunction with in-class learning, these two types of educational methods shouldn’t be confused. The key difference is that while hybrid learning teaches both remote and in-class at the same time, blended learning focuses on the division of time between the virtual environment and the physical classroom. This offers students a more personalised learning experience at home and group-orientated studying in a traditional classroom.
It took a global pandemic to kickstart blended learning but the results have been incredible. Technology has elevated the learning experience and 73% of teachers now agree that blended learning increases engagement in their classrooms.
