Introduction to Flexible and Blended Learning

Welcome to the Flexible and Blended Learning course! In today’s rapidly evolving educational landscape, the need for adaptable and innovative learning approaches has never been more critical. This course is designed to equip you with the knowledge and skills necessary to effectively implement flexible and blended learning strategies in various educational settings.

What is Flexible and Blended Learning?

Flexible Learning refers to an educational approach that allows learners to have control over their learning experience. This includes choices in what, when, where, and how they learn. It recognizes that learners have diverse needs, preferences, and circumstances, and aims to accommodate these differences.

Blended Learning, on the other hand, combines traditional face-to-face classroom methods with online learning activities. This hybrid approach leverages the strengths of both modalities, providing a richer and more engaging learning experience.
