| dc.description.abstract | Within the higher education sector, blended learning strategies succeed largely because of their promise to deliver the best of both worlds to students: face-to-face education and online learning. The implementation of blended learning in courses and programmes is commonly associated with an enhanced student expe-rience resulting from broader access to learning resources, improved interactivity and cooperation, increased participation and motivation, and increased control of students’ own learning. This paper presents a design model that can assist in the development, implementation and evaluation of blended learning courses. The model is supported by a review of the literature and a multiple case study analysis of three higher education courses, in Australia. The design model is composed of six core elements: early planning and clear communication, in-class active learning, appropriate online technology selection, engaging online content and activities, student online and in-class assessment, and multi-layered course evaluation. | eng |
