What is Blended Learning?
What are the advantages of Blended Learning?
As stated before, one obvious advantage of blended learning is its ability to maximize effectiveness by matching the best medium for each learning object (course segment). Here are some of the benefits of a few of the mediums that might be used:
Classroom: is good for workshops, coaching, exercises, feedback on activities and paper-based tests.
Self-paced e-learning: is good for simulations, online case studies, interactive learning modules, e-mail, bulletin boards interactions, online assessments, and other forms of CBT (computer based training).
Live e-Learning: is good for application exercises, online coaching, interaction between students, online feedback, assessment, chats and instant messaging.

To summarize, the theory is that Blended Learning has the potential of offering courses or training that, through the wise choice of the blend, can have results that are better that the sum of the parts.

1. Blended learning combines online with face-to-face learning. The goal of blended learning is to provide the most efficient and effective instruction experience by combining delivery modalities.
2. "The term blended learning is used to describe a solution that combines several different delivery methods, such as collaboration software, Web-based courses, EPSS, and knowledge management practices. Blended learning also is used to describe learning that mixes various event-based activities, including face-to-face
classrooms, live e-learning, and self-paced instruction." By Purnima Valiathan
Why use Blended Learning?
1. "Students not only learned more when online sessions were added to traditional courses, but student interaction and satisfaction improved as well." DeLacey and Leonard, Harvard Business School, 2002
2. "Providing several linked options for learners, in addition to classroom training, increased what they learned." Peter Dean (this is quoted everywhere but I haven't found the study although, experientially this is the case.)
3. Speedier performance was detected on real world tasks by those who learned through blended strategies as opposed to those that learned via e-learning along. Thomson & NETg, 2003.
4. "Adults don't just "learn" in one way. Likewise, associations should not make the mistake of providing just one way for adult learners to receive their educational content." by Judith Smith
