Are You Ready to Embrace Blended Learning?
Prepare to Enhance Your Institution’s Protocols
Implementing a successful combination of classroom and remote learning requires taking a hard look at device, network and student/educator factors. Use this checklist to help ensure your school is prepared to offer a comprehensive blended learning experience.
Key Considerations for Deploying a Blended Learning Solution
Do I have overlapping collaboration tools in my environment?
If so, does everyone use them consistently? Or do I have pockets of some using one tool and others using another for the same thing?
Does my learning management system integrate with my meeting platform for virtual classes?
If so, how tightly do they integrate? And is content easily available to students and teachers before, during and after a class?
Do I allow students and faculty to bring their own devices?
For students and faculty who don’t bring their own devices, do I offer packages with step-by-step setup instructions and helpful guides, prepackaged with the right hardware and software?
For those still coming to campus, how do I keep facilities secured and protected?
Does my remote network security protect data while still providing access to resources? How will I inform those on campus about events and rules for social distancing? For classrooms, how will I ensure maximum capacity and social distancing guidelines are being followed?
With more students accessing systems remotely, have I evaluated network usage? Have I looked at platform best practices?
Has usage increased or decreased? Have I adjusted bandwidth accordingly? How do I help educators get up to speed on virtual platforms? Have I developed best practices around teachers and students using cameras and headsets?
