Methods for Blended Learning

Margaret Driscoll of IBM write a great article on examples of various methods for blended learning:

Here's the list, see the article for details:

1. Put the assessment online.

2. Follow up with a community of practice.

3. Make reference materials available.

4. Deliver pre-work online.

5. Provide online office hours.

6. Use mentoring/coaching as a tool.

7. Provide job-aids.

8. Access experts.

9. Create a "lifeline".

10. Maximize e-mail and messaging.

I always say that if you teach online the same way you teach face-to-face, then you're not really teaching online. How does your style change when you tech online.
