This study was an attempt to analyze the applications and problems of conducting blended learning (BL) in view point of the agricultural students from Bu-Ali Sina University. The study has employed a surveying methodology with interviewing and included a combination of descriptive and quantitative research methods. Statistical population of the study included 500 agricultural students from Bu-A...

This paper explores the design of a blended learning environment in a transition from face-to-face and seeks to determine whether learner characteristics and background together with blended learning design elements are significant factors for learning outcomes such as intrinsic motivation, satisfaction, knowledge construction and learning performance in blended learning. It is aimed at examini...

Problem Effects of residents' blended learning on their clinical performance have rarely been reported. A blended learning pilot program was instituted at Southern Illinois University School of Medicine's Obstetrics and Gynecology program. One of the modules was chronic hypertension in pregnancy. We sought to evaluate if the resident blended learning was transferred to their clinical performanc...

Blended online learning is an emerging variation of blended learning. Whereas blended learning enhances face-to-face classroom instruction by adding asynchronous online instruction via a learning management system, blended online learning adds synchronous online learning via web conferencing to enhance otherwise asynchronous online courses. Blended online learning can potentially attract season...

With the literature calling for comparisons among technology-enhanced or active-learning pedagogies, a blended versus flipped instructional comparison was made for numerical methods coursework using three engineering schools with diverse student demographics. This study contributes to needed comparisons of enhanced instructional approaches in STEM and presents a rigorous and adaptable methodolo...

The University of Muenster is working on an ongoing project involving the development of an elearning system called „eXtreme e-Learning eXperience“ (XLX), which is mainly used in support of the exercise portions of technically oriented university courses (e.g., database systems, database implementation, computer networks, workflow management). XLX is part of our “blended learning strategy” that...

Blended learning has been recognized as the most promising emerging trend in higher education, offering new capabilities, as it may significantly enhance the interaction and communication between instructors and students. The challenge of blended learning is to balance the weaknesses and strengths of face-to-face and e-learning teaching environments and effectively combine them to provide enhan...

Expanding a tool for predicting chloride diffusivity in concrete so it can be used by manufacturers to evaluate the durability of concrete made with blended cements. Part I: Characterizing blended cement materials. Expanding a tool for predicting chloride diffusivity in concrete so it can be used by manufacturers to evaluate the durability of concrete made with blended cements. Part I: Characte...

We describe an algorithm to optimally extract individual spectra of blended sources from a long slit spectrum. A semi-analytic model for the spatial profile is used: a Voigt profile for the undersampled core with a numerical correction applied to the wings. This is derived from an isolated source which must also be placed on the slit. χ fitting is used to separate the blended components with ma...

Online and offline blended teaching mode, the future trend of higher education, has recently been widely used in colleges around globe. In article, we conducted a study on students’ learning behavior analysis student performance prediction based data about logs three consecutive years college’s “Java Language Programming” course. Firstly, from diverse platforms such as MOOC, Rain Classroom, PTA...
