      But what is Blended Learning?

      Blended learning combines classroom learning with online learning, in which students can, in part, control the time, pace, and place of their learning.

    • It's really very simple. If students are already doing some sort of homework task, especially if it's already online, then you're pretty much half way there!

      Watch the video below for a more detailed description...

    But what will the Students make of it?

     

    Did you know that some staff during the 2016/17 academic year have been piloting Blended Learning with their students? As part of this pilot, feedback was gathered from some of the participating NPTC Group students through focus group sessions.

    Here’s some of their comments:

    Blended Learning sounding interesting?

     It’s something that will be rolled out across the college very soon!
    An aspirational target for 2017/18 is that 100% of Level 3 courses,
    and 50% of Level 2, will have a Blended Learning Element!
    Blended Learning will be featured in the planned INSET day on 10th July.

    Plus, our Blended Learning Competition will officially be announced next week!

    Get ahead! Register your interest TODAY!

    Before you do….have a think about the following:

    Within which area or course do you want to start using Blended Learning?
    How will you use it with your students? Flipped learning? Homework? Complementary work?
    Do you want to concentrate on a particular Unit to start with? A topic? A project? An element that spreads across your entire course? A marketing idea? Chance a process for students completely?

     Once you have a few ideas, complete the following form, and a member of the ILT Team will get in touch with you to help get you started!

    • Your BL element MUST be used with students between September and November ’17, and there needs to be evidence of this on your Moodle course.
    • The competition will close on 1st December, with winners announced on 15th December.
    • Best use of Blended Learning will win an iPad Mini in time for Christmas! There will also be smaller prizes for other highly commended entries.

    • Teaching Staff – all FT Level 3 courses, and 50% FT Level 2 courses are expected to try to add an element of Blended Learning to their course next academic year anyway – so why not have a go and win something in the process?
