The document discusses blended learning, which combines traditional face-to-face instruction with online work. Blended learning meets the instructional needs of every student and helps students take responsibility for their own learning at their own pace by creating an engaging, student-centered environment. To gain student buy-in, teachers should explain the purpose of blended learning, provide examples, offer choices, and be flexible. To set up blended learning for success, teachers should prepare thoroughly, understand their strengths, implement blended learning gradually, and remain flexible. The main challenges of blended learning include misconceptions, planning time, classroom management, student engagement, and technology issues.
