THE RISE OF K-12 BLENDED LEARNING

January 2011Michael Horn & Heather Staker

Blended Learning

• Only 10% of students will join virtual schools.

• Blended learning (blended/hybrid) will dominate

• Six probable models

Six Blended Models

• 1. Face-to Face Driver• Face-to-face teachers deliver most of

the courses.• Teacher utilizes online learning on a

case-by-case basis to supplement or remediate.

• 2. Rotation• Students rotate on a fixed schedule

between online learning and face-to-face.

Six Blended Models

• 3. Flex• Online platform delivers most of the

curriculum.• Teachers provide on-site support as-

needed.

• 4. Online Lab• Online platform delivers the entire

course.• Paraprofessionals supervise.

Six Blended Models

• 5. Self-Blend• Students choose to take one or more

courses online to supplement the school’s catalog.

• 6. Online Driver• An online platform and remote teacher

delivers all the curricula.• Students work remotely.

The Rise of K-12 Blended Learning

Online learning has the potential to be a disruptive force that will transform … America’s schools into a new model that is student-centric, highly personalized for each learner, and more productive…
