Description

Blended learning is any 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. Why blend? Researchers have concluded that “blended learning … has the proven potential to enhance both the effectiveness and efficiency of meaningful learning experiences.” Utilizing a blended learning platform, science faculty can design courses for both majors and non-majors that focus on active learning and student-centered teaching strategies. By integrating technology and other blending tools and techniques, you’ll spend less in-class time lecturing and more time on higher-learning, including application, analysis, creation and evaluation.

This affordable, comprehensive two-book set will guide faculty in any science discipline step-by-step in learning how to incorporate blending techniques and strategies into sciences courses and labs for both science majors and non-majors.
