Blended Learning Models and Supports
Blended Learning Models and Supports
The definition of blended learning is a 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;
at least in part in a supervised brick-and-mortar location away from home;
and the modalities along each student’s learning path within a course or subject are connected to provide an integrated learning experience.
Learn more at the Christensen Institute website. See blended learning models.
Some APS schools have adopted blended learning methods such as the Rotation Model, specifically Station Rotation. Learn more about the 7 Blended Learning models that can guide you to the classroom of the future.
Visit our EdTech Blended Learning webpage to learn more about blended learning and additional models of learning.

Improved Student Engagement
Improved Student Engagement
Blended learning gives students an element of control over when, where, and how often they learn. Tools like Seesaw, Google apps, native Apple apps (e.g. Clips) allow for kids to continue learning, sharing what they've learned, and discovery beyond the classroom, further expanding opportunities to learn. Also, blended learning offers the opportunity for personalization of content as well as delivery methods. These are all factors that can help students engage on a deeper level with concepts
Easier Differentiation of Instruction
Easier Differentiation of Instruction
Blended learning allows for multiple ways to reach educational goals. Blended learning not only provides for a variety of instructional methods, but it also frees up teacher time through the use of automated instruction and other technology tools. This will enable teachers to focus their time on provided instruction to smaller groups or even individual students.
Student Interaction Increases
Student Interaction Increases
While it may seem counter-intuitive, blended learning can lead to an increase in student interaction, depending on which model is used. For example, station-rotation model allows for data driven instruction, building relationships, and flexibility in teaching and learning.
