Blended Learning Learning and Development Consultancy in Dubai Learning nuggets for just-in-time learning! While digital learning is the need of the hour, the importance of classroom learning can never be undermined. It is therefore significant that change in learning patterns is brought in through a blended learning approach that combines traditional instructor-led training and virtual learning. A blended approach would help facilitate the digital transition slowly and at a pace that is comfortable for everyone. Blended learning comprises a mix of traditional Instructor-Led Training (ILT) and modern online training to provide students with a well-rounded educational program. Blended learning is also referred to as hybrid, mixed, or integrated learning. This type of learning combines the benefit of human interaction availed in conventional classroom education with the efficiency and ease of e-learning technologies. Stylus is one of the best learning and development consultancy in Dubai, UAE, facilitates reliable, high-quality, blended learning solutions as a part of e-learning content development so that you can get the best of both worlds. Blended learning usually includes three main approaches: •
Online learning materials, often including pre-recorded lectures. Learners are usually encouraged to complete the online course before the classroom session.
•
In-person classroom activities facilitated by a trained facilitator. The facilitator places emphasis on empowering students with the skills and knowledge required to make the most of the online material and independent study time, guiding students toward the most meaningful experience possible. Facilitators can shift their focus from the delivery of knowledge to its application
•
Structured independent study time guided by the material in the lectures and skills developed during the classroom experience.
A course created in a blended learning model uses the classroom time for activities that benefit the most from direct interaction. Stylus is a learning and development consultancy that creates learning and teaching materials tailored to your needs.
