Teaching Aids for Blended Learning Classes

I have designed teaching aids for a wide range of course: PPTS, visual aids, film clips, and assignments for video essays. I have used them in blended learning classrooms, in distance education courses, and on content management systems such as Blackboard and Moodle.

Below, you can find sample teaching aids as follows:
