Huntsville will have a new high school starting in August, and it will be showcasing the growing trend of “blended” online and face-to-face instruction. The U.S. Department of Education found that “classes with online learning (whether taught completely online or blended) on average produce stronger student learning outcomes than do classes with solely face-to-face instruction.” Education Week’s July 13 edition had an article that said blended learning models allow “for more student-centered learning experiences” and “a powerful way to scale personalized learning.” “New learning models will continue to emerge that adopt the best features of online learning and face-to-face instruction,” stated the article submitted by the International Association for K-12 Online Learning.
