What is blended learning?

So what exactly is blended learning? The term blended learning is an approach to learning that usually combines educational opportunities for interaction between teacher and student in both a classroom and online environment. It can also be called hybrid learning and mix mode learning, involve lecture capture, and the blended learning experience in education varies from institution to institution.

Combining online learning with the traditional classroom based teaching is the challenge facing educational establishments in the 21st century. It is generally agreed that hybrid learning allows students to work independently whilst freeing up tutors to support students in need. Generally, engagement is considered higher than more traditional methods. Technology is available across many sources, including BYOD, but needs to be integrated to produce a working system.

Universal AV have worked with various universities to produce teaching environments with hybrid learning at their core. We use a combination of IT, audio visual equipment such as projection, auto tracking camera’s and audio visual furniture to create innovative, functional and flexible spaces, enabling a greater pedagogical flexibility than standard teaching spaces.
