High quality online blends can… • can save time, effort and cost • be an efficient use of resources and teaching spaces • are proven to be more effective than single methods of instruction • allow sharing with other learners from various regions • be adaptable and flexible for teachers and learners and cope with non-traditional learners better - fit in with other commitments • be student-centred – learn at own pace, suit individual learning styles, increase autonomy and enable self directed learning • use a wide range of educational activities [online webinars, video, chat rooms and discussion boards etc.], and increasing popular as growing ease of use and familiarity with IT. • be good for social networking GANDHI GRAM
Process GANDHI GRAM • To design blended training, the instructional designers start by analyzing the training or course objectives and braking them down into the smallest possible units • After the course or training has been chunked, the best approach to deliver each segment of instruction is identified. In some cases the best approach might be using online learning . • The course is then aggregated by grouping the instruction logically while taking into account the medium of delivery. In this way, one may require a few lessons online and some others live..
