“Contrary to popular belief, online learning isn’t a substitute for student-teacher interaction—it’s the catalyst for it,” says Horn, co-founder and executive director of Education at the Institute and co-author of Disrupting Class. “By offering a scalable way to bring personalization, access and cost control to K-12 schools, online learning enables teachers to spend more time on other activities like project-based and one-on-one learning.” “We can’t simply write a line item around funding tablets and think that will cover it,” adds Staker, senior research fellow at the Institute. “Technology is a critical piece of the puzzle, but understanding how to apply that technology is paramount. Blended is a comprehensive design manual for on-the-ground application.”
