Blended Learning Instructional Design
"The medium is the message," said Marshall McCluhan. Nowhere is this truer than in designing high impact blended learning programs. Blended learning is all about weaving together a variety of media: face-to-face and online, same-time and any-time, electronic and paper-based.Blended learning isn't just about combining instructor-led and Web-based training or tacking a chat room or Web meeting onto an existing training program.
Instructional designers must deeply understand the capabilities of various media and their implications for thinking differently about the learning enterprise. They must build a new skill set — onto their existing knowledge of instructional design — that can manifest itself in seamless learning experiences that transfer knowledge to on-the-job capabilities and performance improvement.
