2.  Define Blended Learning
 Describe where blended learning fits on the synchronous to
asynchronous spectrum
 Use Backwards Design to make technology decisions
Apply the TPACK model to your course

3. Approaching teaching and learning with
technology in terms of these best practices
will help you:
 Have a greater impact on student learning
 Reduce the amount of time you need to
spend learning new technologies skills
 Decrease the amount of time you spend
on tasks outside of teaching
 Reduce anxiety about how many tech
tools there are and how behind you feel

4. 1. Clearly define goals before you start thinking about
technology tools
2. Utilize Bloom’s Revisited Taxonomy and Digital
Taxonomy to set goals
3. Use Backwards Design to determine needs
4. Use TPACK to determine what you are trying to do
better with technology

Synchronous Asynchronous

8.  Technology allows new possibilities for
teaching and learning
 Tech tools allow for a shared workload
 University is no longer the gatekeeper to
knowledge
 No longer does the professor need to be
the sage on the stage
