Show Notes

Blended learning has been the buzzword in education for the past few years. But what exactly is it? The textbook definition of blended learning is the combination of synchronous learning and asynchronous learning. In the real world, however, it just means online and face-to-face classroom methods. With so many districts and schools moving toward this way of teaching, how do we make it work best for our students? In this episode, Dr. Carrie talks with ISTE and Google Certified, METC Spotlight Educator, April Burton. April shares common misconceptions about blended learning and how blended learning can catapult student engagement.
