With the fast pace of technological development in the world, we believe our students need to use technology in and beyond the classroom. A blended learning approach is a combination of face-to-face interaction and computer-based activities during lectures, which leads to an enhanced learning experience. Using this approach, students can be provided with multimedia-rich and interactive content at any time.
At Concordia, we feel the following blend will provide a complete learning environment for our students:
- Full provision of module-related documents in electronic format, including videos
- Highly engaging and supportive classroom sessions
- Opportunities for students to collaborate and learn from each other
- Regular formative assessment with feedback
- Personal development planning
- A comprehensive Learning Management System (LMS) to support all aforementioned aspects of blended learning
With this advanced interactive approach students will be able to:
- Access all learning content throughout the day
- Measure their progress against learning outcomes and receive supportive feedback
- Participate in interactive learning opportunities during face-to-face sessions
- Engage in collaborative learning that goes beyond classroom discussions
- Create supportive learning networks accessible at the time or place that best suits them
- Gain a better understanding of their progress to become more efficient and successful learners
Through the same system, parents and teachers will be able to:
- Monitor student progress
- Obtain information and feedback so that corrective measures, if any, may be applied in a timely manner
