“Learning … is not making deposits in one’s data bank. It is more like mixing a new ingredient into the soup of perception and cognition.”

(Davis, Sumara, and Luce-Kapler, 2000, p.197)

The Blended Approach Operationalised

Therefore:

The Blended Approach is identifying the key criteria of performance to learning and

thus qualify all the available learning strategies/methodologies

against such criteria.

Online-Learning Operationalised

E-Learning is any intentional learning

activity delivered via interactive media.

Media = CD-ROMs, DVDs and the Internet.

It includes both synchronous and asynchronous modes of delivery.
