Development of the blended learning module integrating remote laboratory experiments into Moodle learning environment for an engineering master course in DSP, is described in this paper. New Moodle block called Remote Lab View (RLV) is created allowing remote experiments time scheduling as well as synchronous chat session available for teacher present in the laboratory and for students who acce...

This paper describes the design of sinuous antenna reflector feeds using blended rational interpolation. The blended rational interpolation method is developed to interpolate a sparse set of high-fidelity (HF) data while following the trends of a denser set of low-fidelity (LF) data. The HF data are obtained by full-wave computational electromagnetics simulations of the input impedance of a pyr...

Blended Learning, a learning facilitation that incorporates different modes of delivery, models of teaching, and learning styles, introduces multiple media to the dialog between the learner and the facilitator. This paper examines online communication as the link between established theory of learning and literature on e-learning in order to better understand the appropriate use of blended lear...

This paper explores the use of context sensitivity both intraand interprocedurally in a blended (static/dynamic) program analysis for performance diagnosis of framework-intensive Webbased applications. Empirical experiments with an existing blended analysis algorithm [9] compare combinations of (i) use of a context-insensitive call graph with a context-sensitive calling context tree, and (ii) u...

This paper explores the role of Blending Theory, as a framework, to aid in design decisions while deploying mobile experiences for heritage storytelling. Blending Theory provides a structured way of thinking about how digital and physical spaces can be brought together to create new experiences in blended spaces. In this paper we describe the development of an app that aims to enhance the visit...

Background: An important stage in medical training is pathophysiology level. There is a question among medical teachers that conventional methods of teaching is sufficient for learning. There is a purpose among teachers to find a way to improve the quality of medical teaching. The aim of this study was to compare lecture and blended methods to each other. Methods: 121 medical students of Mashha...

Blended learning is growing in popularity, but there is conflicting empirical evidence in relation to how it affects students’ exam marks and final grades. This paper compares a blended learning approach to the traditional delivery of an accounting subject to engineering students. Data was collected from two cohorts of students over two semesters and analysed to determine whether the students w...

This study investigated the effectiveness of using online instruction as a supplement to a face-to-face introductory technology education course. Survey data were collected from 46 pre-service teachers. Findings indicated that when traditional face-to-face instruction was combined with online components, learning was enhanced over a single delivery mode. However, the blended approach adopted in...

BACKGROUND Blended learning is a combination of online and face-to-face learning and is increasingly of interest for use in undergraduate medical education. It has been used to teach clinical post-graduate students pharmacology but needs evaluation for its use in teaching pharmacology to undergraduate medical students, which represent a different group of students with different learning needs....

In recent years, the use of the Blended Learning (BL) methods has experienced worldwide uptake and is responsible for enormous changes, not only in developed country education, but in developing country education, particularly sub-Saharan Africa. Given the role that blended learning can play in educational development, educational institutions, students, employers, and governments are increasin...
