How Blended Learning will Help Your Career?

Originally Published 5.4.2014

According to a famous cliche, we have to innovate or stagnate. I always hear trainers say that still, the best learning method is the good-old classroom training. But it is very expensive and time-consuming for companies. With the present technological advancement in workplace learning, blended learning is the emerging next-best alternative, if not better.

A blended learning approach combines face-to-face classroom methods with computer-mediated activities to form an integrated instructional approach. (Kharbach).

According to Dreambox, blended learning is constantly evolving. Most of the innovations and refinements have been developed to support student-centered learning. That means leveraging technology into learning activities, in and out of the classroom.

There is mounting evidence that complementing or replacing lectures with student-centric, technology-enabled active learning strategies and learning guidance—rather than memorization and repetition—improves learning, supports knowledge retention, and raises achievement. These new student-centered blended learning methods inspire engagement and are a way to connect with every student right where they are while supporting progress toward grade-level standards.

The future our children will inherit demands technological dexterity, the ability to think critically, and the development of flexible intelligence that will thrive in— and drive—change.
