    • Blended learning, also known as hybrid learning, technology-mediated instruction, web-enhanced instruction, or mixed-mode instruction, is an approach to education that combines online educational materials and opportunities for interaction online with traditional place-based classroom methods.

      Blended learning requires the physical presence of both teacher and student, with some elements of student control over time, place, path, or pace. “Enhancing Students' Language Skills through Blended Learning". Electronic Journal of E-Learning. 14</ref> [1] While students still attend brick-and-mortar schools with a teacher present, face-to-face classroom practices are combined with computer-mediated activities regarding content and delivery.[2] "Blended course design: A synthesis of best practices". Journal of Asynchronous Learning Networks. 16.</ref> It is also used in professional development and training settings. Since blended learning is highly context-dependent, a universal conception of it is difficult. Some reports have claimed that a lack of consensus on a hard definition of blended learning has led to difficulties in research on its effectiveness.[3] A well-cited 2013 study broadly defined blended learning as a mixture of online and in-person delivery where the online portion effectively replaces some of the face-to-face contact time rather than supplementing it. Additionally, a 2015 meta-analysis that historically looked back at a comprehensive review of evidence-based research studies around blended learning, found commonalities in defining that blended learning was "considered a combination of traditional f2f [face to face] modes of instruction with online modes of learning, drawing on technology-mediated instruction, where all participants in the learning process are separated by distance some of the time." [4] This report also found that all of these evidence-based studies concluded that student achievement was higher in blended learning experiences when compared to either fully online or fully face-to-face learning experiences. [5] "Blended learning" is sometimes used in the same breath as “personalized learning” and differentiated instruction.[6]
