Ultimately, the most effective blended models will be those that focus on the synchronization of live and digital instruction in ways that are personalized to the needs of each student. The first generation of blended learning models represents a meaningful leap forward from the traditional classroom model, providing students a more engaging learning environment and giving teachers the tools they need to do what they do best. But these models make limited use of what’s truly possible. These shortcomings are not a reflection of the technology or a lack of desire to accelerate student learning, but rather are the result of attempting to graft technology solutions on top of a traditional classroom model that was never designed with technology in mind.
