The document describes a case study of blended education at Delft University of Technology involving 12 courses and 3,000 students. It outlines the blended learning cycle used, which is based on a flipped classroom model where students prepare for face-to-face sessions at home through activities like watching pre-lecture videos and doing simple exercises. Class time focuses on interactive sessions and feedback. The case study found that the blended approach improved student activation and conceptual understanding through more practice and feedback opportunities. However, instructors need support to fully integrate online and in-person learning and adapt their teaching methods.
The European Maturity Model for Blended Education is a framework which can help educators and institutions to take the next step in blended education.
The framework consists of 3 levels (course, programme, and institution) and for each level dimensions and indicators have been developed. This can be used to self assess the maturity of a blended course, programme or institution..
The EMBED implementation guidelines offer support for educators, course teams, instructional designers and management to mature in blended education. For each of the 21 dimensions guidelines have been written to reach the next maturity level. The guidelines include educational models, articles, research, and tools. Use them and take the next step toward mature blended education.

Multidisciplinary teaching is a contemporary education strategy implemented by various tertiary institutions to stimulate students’ critical thinking, develop inter-disciplinary understanding, and enhance students’ problem solving skills. In this presentation, Dr Saad Odeh and Dr Muhammad Qureshi summarise the steps taken, as well as findings from a pilot study that investigated the development and implementation of a combined assignment from two first year units in the Engineering curriculum: “Foundation Mathematics” and “Introduction to Programming”.
The suggested assignment aimed to help students understand the link between these two disciplines. Case studies from the mechanical and civil engineering industry were selected to develop the pilot assignments. The mathematical rules applied in this assignment were introduced in brief in the assignment information sheet to give students guidelines to carry out further online research. The preliminary statistical results show improvement in students’ multi-disciplinary knowledge in the different units and enhancement in their industrial experience.

In any given semester, course content should be properly communicated to the students in an organised manner to ensure the learning outcomes are met within the limited time. A 'lesson plan' becomes handy in this situation.
A lesson plan is a tool and a model for structuring an individual lesson. It provides strategies for efficiently putting together content needed for teaching; the amount of time spent in each topic and what supporting tools can be used. Other advantages of a lesson plan is that it ensures the consistency of teaching from one semester to another. Also if there are multiple lecturers teaching the same unit, they can use the same patterns and tools for teaching.
In this presentation, Menik Tissera uses an example of her own lesson plan to demonstrate how to effectively create and use one.

How can you use opportunities afforded by technology to improve the learning experience?
The whitepaper describes the blended classroom concept which is the thoughtful integration of the at-school, at-home and online learning arenas. The combination is a powerful theory that helps all teachers using itslearning (and teachers using web 2.0 tools) to frame their work in the context of 21st-century teaching.
The whitepaper looks at some of the possibilities offered by technology and shows how two teachers are applying them in a pedagogical setting, in something refered to as the blended classroom.
The ideal blended classroom is about using available technology to put learning first by combining blended learning, visible learning and formative assessment; three of today’s most popular teaching strategies.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

What
The blended learning cycle, depicted below, is based on the flipped classroom model. Students prepare the face-to-face sessions at home.
The classroom time is used for more interactive sessions and personal feedback. Students process new concepts by doing exercises at home.
The use of Blackboard,
pre-lecture material, MyMathLab
practice questions, etc. was very
good! This was my third time taking this
course and this time I passed with a 9 because
I truly understood the material, thanks to the
pre-lecture videos and questions.
The use of the pre-lecture videos was
really good and helpful. They made me keep
up with this course, and I was prepared for
each lecture, ready to actively participate in
the lectures, which I really liked. The
same counts for the use of
FeedbackFruits.
Highlights
Some highlights based on the observations and interviews with instructors and students:
Activation
○ Students feel they are more active;
○ Students experience a clear structure of the course.
Conceptual understanding
○ More time for practice and interaction during lecture due to the flipped learning structure.
○ Concept map shows the relations between different topics.
Feedback
○ Most students appreciate instant feedback from MyMathLab and FeedbackFruits;
○ Students appreciate the small class size and time spent on exercises during the lectures.
Contextual problems
○ Many students value the examples of applications. They would like to see more examples;
○ The available context examples are sometimes too difficult or not realistic.
Next Steps
The blended approach in the model could be a promising way of enhancing students’ learning
experience. The instruction is more activating, students receive more feedback during the
course and the interactive quiz system helps instructors to see if students understand a
specific subject. However, it should be noted that behavioural change is difficult. Students
should be explicitly instructed on how and when to prepare lectures and practice the content.
Instructors need to be inspired and sometimes motivated to adapt the way they teach.
Some recommendations:
○ Instructors should make a point of integrating the online and face-to-face sessions;
○ Continue to evaluate leading to ongoing adaptations of the courses;
○ Renaming parts of the course can sometimes make a lot of difference in how students
experience something;
○ Organise workshops for instructors on how to implement the new learning strategies
and tools.
Why Delft University of Technology initiated an innovation project, blending its
interfaculty mathematics education in response to rising student numbers
and developing technology. The goal of this project is fourfold:
○ Improve results;
○ Increase efficiency;
○ Transfer mathematical knowledge to other courses;
○ Better connect to today’s students.
To realise the four goals, the project team defined four educational
principles, based on research into good teaching in education. These four
principles are:
○ Activation: stimulate active participation of students in every week of the course;
○ Conceptual understanding: put emphasis on the conceptual understanding of
the mathematical topics;
○ Feedback: give students regular feedback on their progress;
○ Contextual problems: use contextual problems related to their field of study.
