Blended Learning

The video below will provide you with an overview of what you will learn as you complete this Professional Learning Module (PLM) about blended learning. The video will also explore how to navigate through the module. Once you have finished the video, review the goals and objectives for the module, and then print or download a copy of the Blended Learning Guided Reflection Sheets.

Estimated Completion Time - 3 hours

A certificate for renewal credits is available after you have completed the module.

By completing this PLM, you will better understand blended learning, its various models, and how to implement blended learning at your site or district effectively.

• Develop skills, knowledge, and resources for integrating blended learning in the classroom.

• Reflect on your current teaching practices and how you can integrate effective blended learning practices with a rigorous and relevant curriculum.

• Apply the Blended Learning Competency Framework to your instructional plans.

As you complete the blended learning module, you will have reflection activities or questions to complete. Before you continue in this module, click on the icon to print or make a copy of these sheets. You will write your reflections here. As you work your way through the PLM, look for this same icon as an alert for when you should apply your learning to your reflection sheet.

The learning cycle featured in this project is based on the STAR Legacy Cycle developed by the IRIS Center (2013; http://iris.peabody.vanderbilt.edu) and based on the work of Dr. John Branford and colleagues (National Research Council, 2000).

At the bottom of each page, you will notice a progress bar. This bar will provide you with a visual to track your progress as you work to complete the PLM.
