Brandon Hall Research has released a new report that is available exclusively to Research Center members: “Blended Learning 2010: Trends and Descriptions of Real-World Initiatives.”
When training departments mention the term “blended learning,” they’re likely to see some eye rolls from other co-workers and management. The term blended learning has been around since the early 2000s, so many wonder why bother now. However, blended learning is continuing to mature and become more innovative, making it an attractive option right now in the workplace.
A new 68-page report by Brandon Hall Research analyst and popular e-learning blogger Janet Clarey overviews recent trends in blended learning, highlighting the benefits and challenges of undertaking this type of training initiative.
This report first considers the definition of blended learning, which varies according to each researcher’s focus or an organization’s goals. Is blended learning simply integrating face-to-face learning with online methods? Does it combine media and tools, or does it combine pedagogical approaches? How important is the technology being used in blended learning?
Research Center members can read more about this research here.
“Blended Learning 2010” is only available to Brandon Hall Research Center Members. With new research made available every month, isn’t it time that you became a member? Check it out!
