Blended learning combines online and face-to-face instruction and has been shown to have advantages over purely face-to-face or online instruction. It allows for personalization by giving students control over certain learning activities to address their individual knowledge gaps. Blended learning also provides increased learning time through additional materials and opportunities for collaboration. It can be used for credit recovery and reducing costs by outsourcing niche classes.

- 2. Why Blended Learning? Improved Learning “Instruction combining online and face-to-face elements had a larger advantage relative to purely face-to-face instruction than did purely online instruction.” Means et al., 2010
- 3. Why Blended Learning? Personalization “Because digital materials may be accessed according to students’ individual needs, and reviewed upon demand, the provision of digital materials allows students to self-direct certain learning activities to fill their knowledge gaps.” Stein and Graham, 2014
- 4. Why Blended Learning? Increased Time “It was the combination of elements in the treatment conditions (which was likely to have included additional learning time and materials as well as additional opportunities for collaboration) that produced the observed learning advantages.” Means et al., 2010
- 5. Why Blended Learning? Credit Recovery, Nonconsumption, and Cost Blended learning is also being used to support credit recovery and address nonconsumption (or the unavailability of some courses, including AP courses), which can save costs by outsourcing niche classes.
