Changing the Face of the Traditional Classroom

Technology is rapidly changing the way we teach.  Our students have access to information communication devices (smart phones, I Pads, Tablets, computers) that capture their attention.  As teachers we need to capitalize on integrating these devices in our instruction to engage our students.  Gone are the days of merely just fact to face teaching.  The future lies in a blended learning environment that provides face to face instruction along with a virtual classroom.  The student has access to a physical instructor while taking an active role constructing his / her own learning and being fully engaged in the process.  Learning takes place when the student is fully engaged.  These videos provide a brief overview of blended learning and the blended learning environment as well as student perspectives.
