• Blended learning should be approached as not only a temporal construct, but rather as a fundamental redesign of the instructional model with the following characteristics:• -A shift from lecture- to student-centered instruction
where students become interactive learners (this shift should apply to entire course, including face-to-face sessions);
• -Increases in interaction between student-instructor, student-student, student-content, and student-outside resources; and
• -Integrated formative and summative assessment mechanisms for student and instructor.” - Educause, Blended Learning (2004)
