With this in mind, let’s discuss the 5 Steps to designing your successful blended learning strategy. But first, a few questions to ask yourself: Will the program be synchronous or asynchronous in delivery? Where will discussions, feedback and lessons be hosted? That’s not a blend, it’s a technical hodgepodge.

It simply begs belief that learners aren’t finding one-on-one tutoring time or well-structured collaborative time with course mates valuable. Synchronous sessions should involve activities that cannot be done asynchronously. Create discussion topics, and have learners talk through the material.

This approach contrasts with self-paced courses that are tailored to individualized learning schedules, emphasizing instead peer collaboration and communal learning. Planning lectures, discussions, and evaluations becomes more predictable, allowing educators to dedicate more attention to teaching and less to administrative duties.
