Editor's Notes

  1. In this brief talk I’d like to give you a glimpse of the situation in Spain with respect to Blended Learning and the main trends developing in the country. Am I an expert
  2. From the administrative point of view, Spain is divided into 17 autonomous communities. We all share the same national education system as a general framework of reference, but every community has a certain degree of autonomy to organize and implement their own adapted system within its territory. There are national laws and then there are community laws to adapt the general framework to the particular reality and the particular features of each territory. Sometimes, when the national and the autonomous governments are ruled by parties from different sides of the political spectrum, then there are usually political discrepancies that lead to strong disagreements in important education issues. Practically speaking, this means that when we talk about any topic related to Spanish education, we must take this diversity into account. Blended learning is not an exception. Some communities are more proactive in terms of creating the conditions in which BL takes place, some others are more conservative. Of course we cannot refer to the 17 realities here, but we’ll give a sort of compendium. And most of the time we’ll make reference to Andalusia, where we are now, which somehow represents the middle. Anyway, in Education, as in many other aspects of life, technological trends and innovations tend to become global phenomena.
  3. If we consider the general, broad definition of BL as the integrated combination of traditional face to face learning with online learning (usually web-based), and we take into account the different models being used, where can we find examples of blended learning experiences going on in Spain? The possible scenarios are: Schools/High Schools (Primary and Secondary education) VET Schools (usually Secondary Schools with some vocational diplomas) Universities Lifelong education (for adults who go back to the education system). Vocational training for employment (designed for both employed and unemployed workers, usually organized by the labour authorities) Let’s see how blended learning has evolved in each of these scenarios and what models are being used.
  4. In Primary and Secondary Education, blended learning started with the use of ICT Labs in schools and high schools and some Lab rotation model experiences began to appear. Little by little, these centres began to incorporate classrooms with PCs connected to the Internet. In the school year 2009-10, thanks to a national program called Escuela 2.0 thousands of Primary and Secondary classrooms began to turn into digital classrooms incorporating projectors or digital whiteboards , and students of the last two grades of Primary and the first two grades of Secondary were given a netbook for free, while thousands of teachers attended ICT training courses provided by the education administration (many of them in a blended format, too). This seemed to be a good start, but it was just that , a start, because the global financial crisis destroyed any possibility of continuing with this program. Crisis, no money available, so many schools started using free tools like GAFE. The use of GAFE and Google Classroom as an alternative to more complex LMSs also brought a trend to use Google Chromebooks instead of PCs. Some institutions and a growing number of individual teachers are starting to flip their classrooms and many of these experiences are being reported by bloggers.
  5. In Spain, most VET Schools are also Secondary Schools, so they share premises with the Secondary section, apart from their own workshops and technical equipment, of course. So most VET Schools started their bended experiences by using ICT Labs in a Rotation model, like the rest of Secondary Schools. As more and more students have laptops or at least smartphones with an internet connection, they are gradually moving to a Flex model, with a wider presence of online stuff. We at SAFA, for example, have online courses for Kindergarten Educators and for Administration and Finance. Students work online with tutors for each subject monitoring their progress. Sometimes they attend face to face classes or tutoring sessions and they take official exams at School once or twice a year. There is a growing trend of using online simulators like Electude for students of car mechanics. These are online platforms with learning contents and where teachers program car failures in great simulators. Students must do the diagnosis and repair the failures.
  6. Of course universities were one of the first scenarios where Blended learning started to evolve. They also started with ICT Labs in a Rotation model, and in many cases the online work was limited to to sending and receiving email messages with students’ assignments. But soon many universities started using E-learning Platforms and, at the same time, established programmes to help students finance their laptops in very good conditions. Nowadays, many university professors use an LMS to complement their face to face lessons with rich media contents, forums, wikies, etc. Although you can still find some teachers whose use of ICT is limited to sending and receiving email messages with texts to read or with students’ assignments. Apart from that, there is a growing choice of official blended learning programs for degrees and masters in most colleges, usually with a flex model. There has been a global boom of MOOCs that most universities use as a marketing tool for attracting new students. There is a trend to establish what they call “learning groups” or communities, with periodic meetups in which students from the same geographical area meet for group work or discussions and sometimes are tutored by university staff. There is a trend to broadcast lessons in streaming videos, that are also recorded for future reference or to be included as learning material in a future MOOC. The number of blended courses continues to grow at a fast rate. Some university teachers are also experiencing the flipped classroom model.
  7. Most lifelong programs for adults in Spain use the Flex model, in which most of the learning takes place online, with the possibility of attending some classes or having some face to face tutoring sessions. They use elearning platforms with SCORM packages that can also be freely downloaded for self-study. In many autonomous communities, including Andalusia, there is a Distance Education Center with its own platform dedicated to these adult students and the materials they use are available for download so that they can also be used off-line. One of the effects of the high levels of unemployment in the country (22.5 % in june) is that many adults want to take forreign language courses or prepare for official entry exams to university of VET studies.
  8. Apart from the general choice of VET in Secondary Schools, there are other vocational training courses, usually organized and supervised by the labour authorities in each region, whose main objective is to provide professional training to both employed and unemployed workers. These courses are usually related to specific professional qualifications demanded by the labour market or needed by active workers to adapt themselves to new trends in their professional fields. A recent law established blended learning as a priority for this type of courses (mostly for economic reasons). They combine online learning with face to face sessions and work placements in the case of unemployed workers. Centres must get a special certification in order to be allowed to have these blended courses and both the LMS and the contents must meet tough requirements in order to be certified.
  9. In 2008 a Standards certification and Quality management office published the first version of a standard for what they call “virtual education”. I guess it is a version of the International ISO Standard. This standard is starting to be required for Training Centres to be certified by some administrations. The standard assesses the quality of the LMS and the online materials, as well as the potential impact on the students’ employability. The development of the courses through the LMS is automatically monitorized by the administration though a special platform that connects to the LMS to retrieve data from the E-learning platform. In this way, they have an immediate feedback of the activity of both teachers and students.
  10. In this brief talk I’d like to give you a glimpse of the situation in Spain with respect to Blended Learning and the main trends developing in the country. Am I an expert
