Hybrid Teaching Seeks to End the Divide Between Traditional and Online Instruction
Hybrid Teaching Seeks to End the Divide Between Traditional and Online Instruction
This discussion of blended learning - or as the Chronicle calls it, hybrid learning - is useful but is written as though the author has only just discussed online learning.

Deviants, Inc.

Pay for Content? Whaddya, Nuts?
Pay for Content? Whaddya, Nuts?
I'm not sure how concerned educational content vendors are about the reluctance of web users to pay for content online, but they should be as many of the same factors are in play (for example: why would someone pay an online university simply to access content when they can obtain MIT content for free?).
