Make it interactive

Blended learning courses can be as interactive as you want. It’s up to you to decide the amount of learning that will be through online training and how much will take place through self-paced learning. For example, you could set a task for learners to complete before a live webinar training session. During the webinar, you discuss the task and share solutions.

Assessments

You’ll need to monitor and assess your learners progress at the end of the program. This will give you insight into how successful the training was, and if there are any knowledge gaps that need to be addressed. With an LMS, you can easily set exams or assessments to be completed at the end of the training. Blended learning in corporate training Blended learning can be applied to a range of situations, like academia. But what works for colleges, might not work for corporate training. So why should you apply a corporate blended learning strategy to your training programs? Why blended learning is ideal for corporate training Return on investment (ROI) Blended learning reduces face-to-face training costs, such as travel, accommodation, and printed training materials. You’ll also have the added benefit of rolling out training on a large scale, so if you want to train globally, blended learning can help you do that with ease! Flexibility When training learners in a corporate setting, you need to strike a balance and have consideration for their non-training workload. Blended learning models rely on a mix of online training and assignments, which enables learners to learn when it suits them, giving them more control over their learning and development. Engagement Companies can use varying online learning methods, like webinars to record training sessions for later use. If you have access to an LMS, gamification and certificates can add rewards and some friendly competitiveness to training, resulting in better learner engagement. Blended learning LMS While you can succeed at delivering blended learning without an LMS, having one will enable you to manage, deliver, and track your training easily. It’s everything you need to deliver high-impact training that accelerates your business growth. But how do you know which blended learning LMS to use? Let’s look at some features an LMS should have to ensure it fits a blended learning training strategy. Which blended learning LMS to use Course management This is a basic function of any LMS, but some systems are more powerful than others. A great LMS lets you drag, drop, and arrange content into place, making it easy to create courses. On top of this, you need to be able to use multiple content formats; PDFs, slides, videos, audio. It’s vital your courses can be easily created and consumed to meet the needs of a corporate blended learning environment. Social learning tools To make your blended learning training more appealing and engaging, make sure your LMS comes with social learning capabilities. These tools encourage learners to share their learning experiences and knowledge gained from training. It also promotes communication between trainers and learners. By facilitating this communication through an LMS forum, it creates a space where learners can support, and learn from each other. It also acts as a repository for learners to search and find additional training information. It’s an excellent tool for fostering your company’s learning culture.

Reporting Reporting is one of the most valuable LMS features you’ll ever use. Without it, how can you know the impact your blended learning training is having? LMS reports should showcase data on learner progression, survey responses, exam results and so on. It’s also helpful to be able to export or schedule reports so they’re sent straight to your inbox. Reports can also give insights into how your blended learning programs are performing, in addition to what your learners want to learn and how they want to learn it. Webinar integration Webinars are key to blended learning training. When delivering courses that feature webinar sessions, you want to ensure it’s as seamless as possible, and that you have access to your data all within a single solution.

Connecting your favorite webinar tools, like Zoom, MS Teams, GoToMeeting or Webex, will allow you to schedule and manage webinar sessions within your LMS. A first-class LMS should provide additional integration features such as auto or self-enrolling registration, real-time polling, virtual breakout rooms and attention monitoring tools, making implementing a blended learning model easy. You can easily reuse your webinar sessions for on-demand videos within courses, or as dedicated video content for training. Make sure you record each session so that you can use these recordings at a later date. What are the benefits of integrating a webinar tool with your LMS? If webinar sessions are part of your blended learning strategy, integrating your chosen tool with your LMS makes sense. You’ll be able to:

• 
  Seamlessly schedule sessions in your LMS that automatically appear in your webinar tool. This means you’ll only have to set up a session once, and there’ll be no scheduling conflicts.
  
• 
  Easily register your attendees through your LMS, with the data being sent to your webinar tool automatically.
  
• 
  Monitor attendance data that is automatically transferred back to your LMS, meaning you don’t have to waste time by manually updating this information.
  

When using a blended learning model, keep in mind that its aim is to combine the strengths of both traditional and online learning methods in order to give your learners a more engaging learning experience. Through blended learning training, you’ll take advantage of the best of both worlds, benefitting both learners and instructors. LearnUpon LMS makes it simple to set up blended courses that contain any combination of face-to-face and online training components.

If there’s a “secret” or “hack” to learning a foreign language, it’s this: hours and hours of awkward and strenuous conversation with people better than you in that language. An hour of conversation (with corrections and a dictionary for reference) is as good as five hours in a classroom and 10 hours with a language course by yourself.There are a few reasons for this. The first is motivation.² I don’t care how cool your study guide is, you’re going to be far more invested and motivated to communicate with a live person in front of you than a book or audio program on your computer.The second reason is that language is something that needs to be processed, not memorized. I’m no linguistics professor, but in my experience, staring and memorizing a word in a book or with flashcards 100 times simply does not stick the same way as being forced to use a word in conversation a mere two or three times. I believe the reason is that our minds place more priority on memories which involve actual human and social experiences, memories which have emotions tied to them.So, for instance, if I look up the verb for “to complain” and use it in a sentence with a new friend, chances are I’m always going to associate that word with that specific interaction and conversation I was having with her. Whereas I can blow by that same word 20 times with flashcards, and even though I may get it right, I haven’t actually practiced implementing it. It means nothing to me, so it is less likely to stick with me.What I mean by this is that studying a language four hours a day for two weeks will be more beneficial for you than studying one hour a day for two months. This is one reason why so many people take language classes in school and never remember anything. It’s because they only study 3-4 hours per week and often the classes are separated by multiple days.Language requires a lot of repetition, a lot of reference experiences, and a consistent commitment and investment. It’s better to allot a particular period of your life, even if it’s only 1-2 weeks, and really go at it 100%, than to half-ass it over the course of months or even years.
All things considered, you get a really poor return for your time and effort in group classes.There are two problems. The first is that the class moves at the pace of its slowest student. The second is that learning a foreign language is a fairly personal process—everyone naturally learns some words or topics easier than others, therefore a class is not going to be able to address each student’s personal needs as well or in a timely fashion.For instance, when I took Russian classes I found verb conjugations to be simple because I had already learned Spanish.
But an English classmate struggled quite a bit with them. As a result, I spent a lot of my class time waiting around for him to catch up.I also had a German classmate who had already been exposed to cases, whereas I had no clue what they were. I’m sure he ended up waiting around for me to figure it out as well. The larger the classroom, the less efficient it’s going to be. Anyone who had to take a foreign language in school and retained absolutely none of it can tell you this.
2.Blended Learning Models
When you’re teaching a diverse group, it’s almost impossible to tailor the learning experience to suit every learner—or is it? A blended learning model can help you personalize your subject matter for time considerations, learning techniques and even personal preferences, but implementing a blended learning model it requires big changes to how you think about training.
Take a look at some of these blended learning methods and see if they might work for you:
Face-to-Face: Traditional instructor-led learning sessions supplemented with technology to allow learners to control their own learning pace. Benefits are role-play, mentoring, hands-on practice, and feedback.
Rotation: Students go from one learning activity to another learning activity, either in a structured learning session directed by a teacher, or online in a self-directed manner. Examples include learning stations, labs, and the flipped classroom where learners practice the lesson before attending the face-to-face training.
Flex: Flex learning is a term that can be used interchangeably with personalized learning. By accessing means of integration of learning in a Learning Management System (LMS.), the students control their learning path, choosing what they to learn. The instructor is usually present in a mentoring capacity, to answer questions.
Gamification: One of the most effective ways to motivate learners is by letting them play! By using game play elements such as points or levels, learners feel a little competition and are more motivated to experience the material on their own time.
Online Lab: This blended learning model is entirely digital, with little or no instructor interaction, and takes place either before, during or after a training. Learners can access content on mobile phones (mLearning), laptops or tablets. This modality engages and solidifies learning.
Self-Blend: Self-blended learning is supplemental content—either in the form of webinars, white papers, industry blogs, or video tutorials—that help self-motivated learners delve deeper into a subject. A robust LMS can combine diverse content sources under one system to encourage curiosity and growth.
Online Driver: This blended learning model is entirely self-directed and takes place in a digital environment. Learners can engage with an instructor through chat, email or message board. It provides a flexible schedule and personalized learning, but lacks the face-to-face interaction of other types of blended learning. An LMS is the best way to encourage users to direct their own learning while still monitoring their process as they enjoy media and eventually, engage in classroom discussion. You can choose from existing learning management systems or opt to have an LMS developed specifically for your purposes.
