Blended Learning has become more exciting with many more tools like social media, collaboration, and mobile web being through into the mix. In the past, learning has been predominantly delivered in one delivery mode or the other – it was either all classroom-based or it was all self-paced online in the form of WBT. But the evolution of best-practices, methodologies, technologies (including computers, web, and mobile devices), and multiple delivery options are increasingly pointing us toward a blended solution. This meeting unfolds the latest cutting edge thinking on the topic of Blended Learning. Some the issues to be explored include: What is Blended Learning? What are we blending? Why blend? How to blend? What is the future of blending? After this presentation, participants will be able to: > Define the notion of blended learning and its different dimensions > Define the notion of reusability, learning objects, and virtual e-Learning within the context of Blended Learning > Apply criteria for selection of different modalities of learning within a blended learning program > Apply the benefits and learning effectiveness criteria to create a business case for blended learning > Visualize examples of Blended Learning, Performance support and productivity improvements
