The popularity of this type of learning outside and inside of the classroom is becoming more and more common. Blended learning pursues the teaching of students’ traditional classroom learning and connects it with new trends in education available on-line via e-learning. You can have a class full of students reading a play during school hours and provide them with homework that allows access to the internet to promote additional learning material related to the play. The additional e-learning could be websites, video streaming of sections of the play and you can also find audio that matches your audience or subject.

A great idea for blended learning is for a teacher to build a website for teaching purposes. By having access to your own website, you can put whatever information you would like to for the content of your classroom and teaching subjects. You can even build tests and quizzes to be taken on the website by students. Teachers can have video downloads of information that they want students to watch and review that is relevant to classroom lectures, ideas and concepts.
Many students enjoy blended learning because they are growing up in a society that is full of highly advanced technology. This cutting-edge technology includes almost daily use of a computer, laptop, and internet browsing from their telephone, e-books and other methods of using the internet for e-learning.
