This document discusses different approaches to taking classroom training online, including flipped classroom, virtual classroom, MOOCs/videos, and e-learning. It recommends a blended pedagogy approach that leverages the benefits of different methods. Specifically, it recommends foundational training using videos and modules, followed by virtual training for reinforcement and deeper learning. Some instructor-led training and activities/scenarios are also recommended, along with continuous mentorship. The goal is to harness the synergy between synchronous and asynchronous learning across online and offline settings. It provides details on executing this approach, from analysis and design to development, implementation, and ongoing management.
Transition into Blended Learning
- 2. Taking Classroom Training online Flipped Classroom ? Virtual Classroom ? MOOCs / Videos ? E-Learning ?
- 3. Better use of f-2-f time Learner-centric Ease of Access Difficult to co-ordinate for remote participants Too much of upfront work More suitable for longer courses Flipped Classroom ?
- 4. Reach remote audiences Cost-effective Live session and interaction experience Limited interactivity with instructor / asking questions More suitable for 1-to-N Archived sessions same as videos except it is sub-optimal quality Virtual Classroom ?
- 5. Videos can be re-viewed Course Material well laid out in context Scalable Learning outcome is often not very desirable Too much of upfront work Too much of off-line learner time just watching MOOCs / Videos ?
- 6. Well designed modules Good interactivities Effective learning Not much of hands-on experience All learning is explicitly targeted Learning Experience is not up to the mark Pure E-Learning ?

- 9. Foundational Training • Combination of • Videos • E-Learning modules • Slides and online materials • Online Interactivities • Knowledge Checks / Assessments
- 10. Virtual Training • Virtual Classroom / Webinars • Reinforce Concepts • Delve deeper • Reflections • Examples and Applications
- 11. Instructor-led-Training • Face-to-Face portion • Designed to be minimal and areas where there are difficulty experienced • Some physical interactions
- 12. Activity / Scenarios • Core Activity Sessions • Case-study discussions • Scenarios / Simulations • Games / Role-playing • Physical / actual lab work
- 13. Mentorship • Continuous engagement with Mentor / coach • Online and Offline • Peer groups • Informal and Formal mentoring
- 14. Harness the Synergy • Tying it all together • Tips for job success • Assessment and Certification • On-the-job Performance • Continuous improvement
- 15. Executing the approach Analysis Solution Design Execution Blueprint Implementation Ongoing Management Program analysis including expected learning outcomes and content analysis Context analysis - primarily learner and organizational context analysis Business requirements analysis – geographical distribution of learners, infrastructure and other issues Decide on the various online learning approaches to be adopted Platforms, tools and courses to be developed Consult with stakeholders and achieve consensus Develop Requirements Specifications for various components that need to be created – software tools/platforms, LMS, courses, etc. Identify components that need to be acquired and those that need development Detailed plans for execution and integration of various aspects of the solution Create • e-learning modules • Videos • Presentations and other activity guides • Student workbooks Customize and implement • Specific learning tools as defined earlier • Platforms such as virtual classrooms Set-up a learning evaluation framework Mechanisms for handling maintenance issues Create management mechanisms such as review forums and steering committee for co-ordination
