In a blended learning approach, there is integration of online teaching using digital techniques with face-to-face teaching so that learning outcomes and contact hours are achieved both online and in the physical classroom.
A blended approach usually combines three core elements: classroom-based activities with the teacher present; online learning materials used in a range of ways; independent study using materials provided by the teacher, either online or in hard copy, to build learning and reinforce concepts.
When designing a blended learning course, you should apply the same principles you would for any other course. Below is a summary of the key points to consider:
When designing a course, you should factor in accessibility and inclusivity for all students. Our inclusive practice webpage provides guidance on embedding inclusivity from the earliest stages of course design.
Developed by the Educational Enhancement Unit, this independent study resource provides a detailed look at blended learning. Included are examples of online resources and guidance on developing your own materials using familiar tools such as MyBeckett, PowerPoint, and Panopto.
Your feedback will help us improve our content so it’s clearer, easier to use, and better aligned with your needs.
