Most of the student characteristics and blended learning design features dealt with in this study are important factors for blended learning effectiveness.

Blended learning is a natural development to the growing accessibility of eLearning, online resources, and the continued need for a human component in the 2.1 Blended Learning. WebCreating an effective blended learning environment means making appropriate choices and overcoming the challenges that come with the use of technology. Tselios, N., Daskalakis, S., & Papadopoulou, M. (2011). They however do not deal with such variables in the contexts of blended learning design as an aspect of innovative pedagogy involving the use of technology in education. Blended learning is an educational approach that combines both traditional ways of teaching (e.g., inside the classroom) and online ways of teaching

But its not an entirely new phenomenon. In Greer, Hudson & Paughs study as cited in Park and Choi (2009), family and peer support for learners is important for success in online and face-to-face learning. From http://www.kineo.com/m/0/blended-learning-report-202013.pdf Cohen, K. E., Stage, F. K., Hammack, F. M., & Marcus, A. The study aims to investigate the effectiveness of the flex model of blended learning in teaching the mathematics subtopic of coordinates in the plane through the improvement of students' academic achievement, self-study skills and learning attitudes.

WebThis research concluded that blended learning was effective to assist the students to learn English grammar. Generally, learners performed well in blended learning in the final examination with an average pass of 62% and standard deviation of 7.5. Educause Quarterly. Cluster sampling was used to select a total of 238 learners to participate in this study. Kintu, M.J., Zhu, C. & Kagambe, E. Blended learning effectiveness: the relationship between student characteristics, design features and outcomes. A higher percentage (85.3%) is reported on learners getting support from family regarding provision of essentials for learning such as tuition. Kintu, M. J., & Zhu, C. (2016). WebThe project aims at promote blended learning and self-regulated learning in Hong Kong secondary school and primary schools. Their study further shows that learners construct meaning individually from assignments and this stage is referred to as pre-construction which for our study, is an aspect of discovery in the knowledge construction process. Computers & Education, 6(1), 116. (2004) who noted learner preference for it for facilitating social interaction and communication skills. Blended learning is a powerful approach to corporate training, learning, and development that has several clear benefits for businesses. This review presents research about blended learning effectiveness from the perspective of learner characteristics/background, design features and learning outcomes. From the table above, design features (technology quality and online tools and resources), and learner characteristics (attitudes to blended learning, self-regulation) were significant predictors of learner satisfaction in blended learning. The objective of the current study is to investigate the effectiveness of blended learning in view of student satisfaction, knowledge construction, performance and intrinsic motivation and how they are related to student characteristics and blended learning design features in a blended learning environment. Learner satisfaction with the online system and its tools shows prospect for blended learning effectiveness but there are challenges in regard to locating course content and assignments, submitting their work and staying on a task during online study. The final semester evaluation results were used as a measure for performance as an outcome. WebBlended Learning Strategies; Custom eLearning; Games, Gamification, and Play for Learning; and every organization can benefit from video in its learning mix.

This paper investigates the effectiveness of a blended learning environment through analyzing the relationship between student characteristics/background, design features and learning outcomes. Moving towards e-learning paradigm: Readiness of higher education instructors in Palestine. High learner intrinsic motivation leads to persistence in online courses as noted by Menager-Beeley, (2004) and is high enough in our study. Score 50 and above is considered a pass in this studys setting and learners scoring this and above will be considered to have passed. Developing tools for analysing CSCL process. statement and Education and Training, 46(67), 335342. Journal of Instructional Psychology, 28(3), 191198. (2006) who found learner interactions as predictors of learner satisfaction but agrees with Naaj et al. As more and more U.S. employees are able to work remotely, blended learning will only continue to grow. This implies that learners capacity to go on their work by themselves supported by peers and high levels of interaction using the quality technology led them to construct their own ideas in blended learning. Online blended learning platforms can help track the time taken by an employee to complete a task, the number of times Askar and Altun, (2008) found that learners were satisfied with face-to-face sessions of the blend with t-tests and ANOVA results indicating female scores as higher than for males in the satisfaction with face-to-face environment of the blended learning. Business leaders and executives can cut costs and increase Return On Investment by using a blended learning model for a companys corporate training. ), Distance education. Initiating knowledge construction by learners for blended learning effectiveness is exhibited in our findings and agrees with Rahman, Yasin and Jusof (2011). [3] Remote Work Persisting and Trending Permanent, [4] Most US employers with flexible work plans choose hybrid work, Mercer says. Blended learning effectiveness has quite a number of underlying factors that pose challenges. Critical success factors for e-learning acceptance: Confirmatory factor models.

It is therefore pertinent that since the use of blended learning applies high usage of computers, computer competence is necessary (Abubakar & Adetimirin, 2015) to avoid failure in applying technology in education for learning effectiveness. Privacy WebThe introduction of blended learning added new dimension to training, and the possibilities for delivering knowledge and information to learners at an accelerated pace and opened Learner satisfaction was noted as a strong factor for effectiveness of blended and online courses (Wilging & Johnson, 2009) and dissatisfaction may result from learners incompetence in the use of the learning management system as an effective learning tool since, as Islam (2014) puts it, users may be dissatisfied with an information system due to ease of use. Blended learning-current use, challenges and best practices. SPSS Survival Mannual (4th ed.). USA: PhD Dissertation, New York University. Impact of learning strategies and motivation on performance: A study in Web-based instruction. The relationship between self regulation and online learning in a blended learning context. Out of the whole university population of students, three schools and one directorate were used. Picciano, A., & Seaman, J. Educational Technology & Society, 12(4), 207217. Learners developed reports from activities (67%), submitted solutions to discussion questions (68%) and did critique peer arguments (69%). However, these environments and organizations are not the only ones that realize the value of blended learning. Face-to-face support is satisfactory and it should be conducted every month. MJK conceived the study idea, developed the conceptual framework, collected the data, analyzed it and wrote the article. California Privacy Statement, Lim and Kim, (2003) indicated that learner interest as a motivation factor promotes learner involvement in learning and this could lead to learning effectiveness in blended learning. The effectiveness of blended learning may be dependent on student characteristics, design features, and learning outcomes. These factors, once addressed, can lead to learner satisfaction in e-learning and blended learning and eventual effectiveness. Student-teacher interaction showed a relation with satisfaction according to Swan (2001) but is not a predictor in our study. New York, USA: Sloan-C. Piccoli, G., Ahmad, R., & Ives, B. (2009). Traditional classroom Box 837, Fort Portal, Uganda, Vrije Universiteit Brussel, Pleinlaan 2, Brussels, 1050, Ixelles, Belgium, You can also search for this author in A one way between subjects ANOVA was conducted on the performance of different age groups to establish the performance of learners of young and middle aged age groups (2030, young & and 3139, middle aged). Sources of satisfaction and dissatisfaction with a learning management system in post-adoption stage: A critical incident technique approach. Thompson, E. (2004). Industry pioneers and academicians agree that blended learning will continue to become a driving force in business and in education. The quality of learning management system content for learners can be a predictor of good performance in e-and blended learning environments and can lead to learner satisfaction. WebAccording to Krause (2007), Blended Learning is realized in teaching and learning environments where there is an effective integration of different modes of delivery, models of teaching and styles of learning as a result of adopting a strategic and systematic approach to the use of technology combined with the best features of face to face Computers in Human Behaviour, 30, 249261. (2008). On the whole, the online resources were fine for the learners (67.2%) and useful as a learning resource (80%). Increased Effectiveness. Time conflict, as compounded by family, employment status and management support (Packham et al., 2004) were noted as causes of learner failure and drop out of online courses. A live, instructor-led virtual classroom that allows for the personal attention of an in-person classroom but is accessible online, from anywhere, coupled with periodic in-person trainings. TechTrends, 48(6), 2931. Last updated on Apr 3, 2023. Assessing the acceptance of a blended learning university course. Learner extent of use of the learning management system features was as shown in the table below in percentage (Table4): From the table, very rarely used features include the blog and wiki while very often used ones include the email, forum, chat and calendar. The last part of the semester was for another face-to-face to review work done during the online sessions and final semester examinations. (2004). The blended learning delivery of anatomy modules has been applied for the first time and perhaps come to stay, hence its legitimacy and efficiency. Library Philosophy and Practice. Rovai, (2003) noted that learners computer literacy and time management are crucial in distance learning contexts and concluded that such factors are meaningful in online classes. Motivation is seen here as an outcome because, much as cognitive factors such as course grades are used in measuring learning outcomes, affective factors like intrinsic motivation may also be used to indicate outcomes of learning (Kuo, Walker, Belland, & Schroder, 2013). Linearity was found suitable from the scatter plot of the standardized residuals and was rectangular in distribution. Business Communication Quarterly, 63(4), 918. This paper examines the design and development of a mobile-mediated professional development program for primary school teachers. Information Technology for Development, 16(3), 159173. Regarding knowledge construction, it has been noted that effective learning occurs where learners are actively involved (Nurmela, Palonen, Lehtinen & Hakkarainen, 2003, cited in Zhu, 2012) and this may be an indicator of learning environment effectiveness. Learners can revisit microlearning lesson videos and take online assessments at their own pace to ensure they retain the material. This book recognizes the In another study, learning experience and performance are known to improve when traditional course delivery is integrated with online learning (Stacey & Gerbic, 2007). Lynch, R., & Dembo, M. (2004). (2008). WebFour general factors must be represented in the design and evaluation of blended learning: the pattern of delivery mode, which sequences and combines in-person or face-to-face Blended learning effectiveness: the relationship between student characteristics, design features and outcomes Abstract. Background: Basic life support (BLS) education is essential for improving bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) rates, but the imparting of such education faces obstacles during the outbreak of emerging infectious diseases, such as COVID-19. Sankaran and Bui (2001) indicated that less motivated learners performed poorly in knowledge tests while those with high learning motivation demonstrate high performance in academics (Green, Nelson, Martin, & Marsh, 2006). (2004). Finally, multiple regression analysis was done between student variables and design elements with learning outcomes to determine the significant predictors for blended learning effectiveness.
