Let’s delve into blended learning: it is revolutionizing modern education and surging in popularity. Blended learning is a combination of the best traditional classroom methods with cutting edge eLearning, offering unparalleled advantages for course creators. This year, LearnDash LMS unveiled its Blended Learning feature, empowering educators to offer students a dynamic and personalized learning experience. 

What is Blended Learning?

Blended learning is where in-person instruction and eLearning meet, and provides many benefits for course creators. It leverages the strength of both traditional classroom teaching and digital instruction, offering students a more dynamic learning experience. 

Those who teach online curriculums can benefit from this type of flexibility. Content creators, teachers, and group trainers can teach online courses while requiring in-person exams or classroom-based learning. 

Bringing Blended Learning to your LearnDash Course

With the introduction of the Blended Learning feature, LearnDash empowers course creators to seamlessly integrate virtual and in-person elements into their curriculum. This innovative feature enables educators to:

  • Mark lessons as virtual or in-person
  • Customize attendance requirements for each lesson
  • Track student attendance directly in their profiles

This increased flexibility means teachers in traditional or higher education settings can set up lessons that are asynchronous while also requiring in-person lessons, ideal for testing, presentations, and active participation. 

Blended learning also benefits instructors who offer certifications through their online courses. Getting certified in a particular field often requires multiple examinations. By offering a combination of online and in-person sessions, course instructors can maintain flexibility while upholding high standards of excellence in certification distribution. 

Additionally, blended learning is perfect for instructors who have government requirements or regulatory reasons for an in-person exam.
