Facilitating flexible learning by replacing classroom time with an online learning environment: A systematic review of blended learning in higher education

Higher education institutions are trying to provide more flexibility and individualization, which is mainly realized through the use of new technologies and implemented in online or blended learning designs. This systematic review aims to investigate the impact of replacing classroom time with an online learning environment. The meta-analysis (k = 21 effect sizes) applied strict inclusion criteria concerning research design, measurement of learning outcomes and implementation of blended learning. The estimated effect size (Hedge's g) was positive, although not significantly different from zero and the confidence interval [-0.13, 0.25], suggesting that overall differences between blended and conventional classroom learning are small, and, at best, very small negative or moderate positive effects are plausible. This means that despite a reduction in classroom time between 30 and 79 per cent, equivalent learning outcomes were found. Consequently, blended learning with reduced classroom time is not systematically more or less effective than conventional classroom learning.

语文教学目标陈述的学理与策略

在实际语文教学中,教学目标的陈述普遍存在一定程度的含糊性和随意性。导致这一问题的原因较为复杂,语文教师陈述教学目标缺乏科学理论的指导无疑是其中一个重要原因,因此,从理论上探讨语文教学目标陈述问题十分必要。现代科学心理学有关教学目标陈述的理论主要包括分类分层陈述理论、行为目标理论和行为样品理论。依据这些理论,语文教师在设计教学目标时应该针对学生的语文学习结果分类陈述,针对学生的语文学习过程分层陈述,针对学生的言语行为规范陈述。     

If we built it,would they come? Creating instruction videos with promotion in mind

This article reports on a video project done in an academic library where faculty were included in the production and marketing of the library instruction videos. The videos allowed the librarian to provide a shorter presentation and spend most of her time working individually with each student. The results showed that 97% of the students watched the videos and were able to benefit from the content. The implementation of the videos was a success due to the collaboration of the professors teaching the three courses and the buy-in of the course coordinator; both factors were essential in the success of the video project.
