Blended Learning. Definition: Learning facilitated by the effective combination of different modes of delivery, models of teaching and learning styles, and applying them in an interactively meaningful learning environment. This strategy combines online and classroom learning activities and resources that may reduce in class seat time for students in a face-to-face environment.
Blended Learning. Blended Learning is an approach to developing and delivering curricula that seeks to increase education quality by leveraging new education technologies (e.g., e-learning modules) (Blended Learning). The Training Provider shall integrate Blended Learning into the curriculum over the management contract period. Given the lead-time required to develop the relevant IT infrastructure, the Training Provider is not expected to begin integrating Blended Learning in the first Academic Year; however, the Training Provider is encouraged to identify key enablers needed (e.g., IT equipment) in their College Improvement Plan in-line with the Blended Learning initiative.
Blended Learning. The UWS Making the Difference Plan, 2010-2015 includes the commitment to enable students to study in their own time, supported by ICT-enabled learning resources. Our students tell us that they want flexible access to higher education that includes a combination of online and face-to- face delivery. We have embarked on an ambitious ‘Our Future’ strategy comprising a suite of initiatives to ensure that our curriculum and academic program offerings are efficiently delivered while at the same time engaging, innovative and relevant. The Our Future program includes a substantial investment over three years to support a whole of institution curriculum renewal strategy based on integrating online and face-to-face modes of delivery. The strategy includes considerable investment in IT infrastructure - including wireless networking capabilities that support flexibility, diversity and extendibility - across our six campuses. At the same time we are investing in technology-enhanced learning spaces, 24-hour library access and computer laboratories that enable students to use our campuses as a resource, a space for learning beyond the formal classroom, using a range of IT resources, including mobile devices. In 2013 UWS issued iPads to all first year undergraduate students and continuing academic staff. The scale of this initiative was an Australian first and one of the largest rollouts of mobile devices internationally. This initiative, which will be repeated again in 2014, is part of the UWS Our Future investment which recognises the need to provide students with the technology toolkits they need to be able to learn anywhere, anytime using a suite of learning resources, including mobile devices and apps. Evidencing curriculum quality and standards UWS is committed to challenging the notion that growth in student numbers compromises quality and standards. Evidence of this commitment is our leadership of the recent Office for Learning and Teaching (OLT) funded project entitled A sector-wide model for assuring final year subject and program achievement standards through inter-university peer review and moderation. The objective of this project was to test the feasibility of an approach for inter-university blind peer review of teaching (input) and learning (outcome) standards among final year undergraduate subjects, taking into account program-level outcomes, external reference points and discipline standards. Eight Australian universities identified common final year sub...
Blended Learning. Training that combines various types of online and face-to-face instruction. Computer Based Training (CBT): consists of instruction delivered on a computer, with or without supplemental workbook materials. In addition to the actual instruction, exercises are usually included. This methodology provides an opportunity for a high level of interactive participation by the student. CBT courses for computer software often simulate the software and sometimes also provide an alternative Help source. CBT training may be made available for individual computers or through a network to many computers, typically delivered on CD-ROM or from a mainframe.
