A guide to both theory and practice of blended learning offering
rigorous research, case studies, and methods for the assessment of
educational effectiveness. Blended learning combines traditional
in-person learning with technology-enabled education. Its
pedagogical aim is to merge the scale, asynchrony, and flexibility
of online learning with the benefits of the traditional
classroom-content-rich instruction and the development of learning
relationships. This book offers a guide to both theory and practice
of blended learning, offering rigorous research, case studies, and
methods for the assessment of educational effectiveness. The
contributors to this volume adopt a range of approaches to blended
learning and different models of implementation and offer
guidelines for both researchers and instructors, considering such
issues as research design and data collection. In these courses,
instructors addressed problems they had noted in traditional
classrooms, attempting to enhance student engagement, include more
active learning strategies, approximate real-world problem solving,
and reach non-majors. The volume offers a cross-section of
approaches from one institution, Georgia Tech, to provide both
depth and breadth. It examines the methodologies of implementation
in a variety of courses, ranging from a first-year composition
class that incorporated the video game Assassin's Creed II to a
research methods class for psychology and computer science
students. Blended Learning will be an essential resource for
educators, researchers, administrators, and policy makers.
