Blended Learning

Blended learning commonly describes learning that combines traditional teaching and learning approaches with information and communication technologies. It is anticipated that blended learning will enhance the student learning experience. A typical example of this would be blending online activities with face-to-face sessions. This can mean using the best of the best - the best use of online learning to enable classroom activities to be active and engaging learning experiences (Graham, 2006).  

The major aims of Blended learning are to:

•use information and communication technologies to support more active approaches to student learning 
•support learning activities that extend outside face-to-face sessions
•assist students in being better prepared for face-to-face sessions.
Blended learning is a focus of the 2008-2010 UQ Teaching and Learning Enhancement Plan.
