BLENDED LEARNING

BLENDED LEARNING MODELS


Blended learning can be implemented in many unique ways, generally using a combination of one or more of the following models.



Station Rotation


The Station Rotation model allows students to rotate through stations on a fixed schedule, where at least one of the stations is an online learning station. This model is most common in elementary schools because teachers are already familiar rotating in “centers” or stations.


Lab Rotation



The Lab Rotation model, like a Station Rotation, allows students to rotate through stations on a fixed schedule. However, in this case, online learning occurs in a dedicated computer lab. This model allows for flexible scheduling arrangements with teachers and other paraprofessionals, and enables schools to make use of existing computer labs.


Individual Rotation


The Individual Rotation model allows students to rotate through stations, but on individual schedules set by a teacher or software algorithm. Unlike other rotation models, students do not necessarily rotate to every station; they rotate only to the activities scheduled on their playlists.


Flipped Classroom


The Flipped Classroom model flips the traditional relationship between class time and homework. Students learn at home via online coursework and lectures, and teachers use class time for teacher-guided practice or projects. This model enables teachers to use class time for more than delivering traditional lectures.


Flex


The Flex model lets students move on fluid schedules among learning activities according to their needs. Online learning is the backbone of student learning in a Flex model. Teachers provide support and instruction on a flexible, as-needed basis while students work through course curriculum and content. This model can give students a high degree of control over their learning.


A La Carte


The A La Carte model enables students to take an online course with an online teacher of record, in addition to other face-to-face courses, which often provides students with more flexibility over their schedules. A La Carte courses can be a great option when schools can’t provide particular learning opportunities, such as an Advanced Placement or elective course, making it one of the more popular models in blended high schools.


Enriched Virtual


The Enriched Virtual model is an alternative to full-time online school that allows students to complete the majority of coursework online at home or outside of school, but attend school for required face-to-face learning sessions with a teacher. Unlike the Flipped Classroom, Enriched Virtual programs usually don’t require daily school attendance; some programs may only require twice-weekly attendance, for example.

  1. Ao meu entender e estar vivenciando o ensino híbrido. Eu acredito ser um método novo, porém mais agradável de se trabalhar, eu por exemplo encontro mais opções para se trabalhar dessa forma do que estar dentro da sala de aula, da qual você só tem o livro e a lousa. Poucas vezes se consegue sair da sala para trabalhar diferenciado.
    Acredito que o ensino híbrido feio para facilitar bastante.
