Journal Article
Towards a New Definition of Blended Learning
2020
Overview
Most current definitions of blended learning refer to a
blend of online and face‑to‑face instruction. It seems that few
authors notice the irony that the definition of blended learning
does not include the concept of learning at all. The problem with
these definitions is that they are devoid of theory and thus lead to
trial‑and‑error research. This paper argues that the definition of
blended learning should be built around learning theory and should
refer to a blend of direct instruction and learning‑by‑doing. The
paper reports on research conducted to validate a model that puts
behavioural and constructivist learning at right angles and
considers if the two can occur simultaneously. The model is then
placed in the context of a framework of knowledge management and
from there a definition is derived that includes context, theory,
methodology and technology.
