BLENDED LEARNING – NEED OF HIGHER EDUCATION

Blended learning or the integration face to face and online instruction (Graham 2013) is widely adopted across higher education with some scholars referring to it as the ‘new traditional model’. Blended learning forces us to consider the characteristics of digital technology, in general and information communication technologies more specifically. Blended learning can enhance students learning outcomes, improve student’s motivation and it is effective way for achieving learning objectives. Blended learning also spends lower cost for training and it may enhance the students learning experience.
