Paper Abstract:
|
This paper describes a blended learning environment that was developed for a course at the university level. Two environments were designed for the course. The first one is face-to-face classroom environment, and the second one is the web environment. For the face-to-face class environment, the classroom was equipped in advance with a personal computer and a LCD projector connected to this computer. In order to bring some real life context in the class, a video footage was used, and this footage was filmed by one governmental and one private institution. The second one is the web environment which was consisted of six main parts: main page, overview of the course, announcements, interaction, site map and help. The students stated that both in-class factors (video clips, in class discussions) and web environment factors (the content, forum, talks with the experts, etc.) brought multiple environments and added that multiple environments had many benefits for themselves. |
