This paper describes the conversion of an introductory computing course to the blended learning model at a small, public liberal arts college. Blended learning significantly reduces face-to-face instruction by incorporating rich, online learning experiences. To assess the impact of blended learning on students, survey data was collected at the midpoint and end of semester, and student performance on the final exam was compared in traditional and blended learning sections. To capture faculty perspectives on teaching blended learning courses, written reflections and discussions from faculty teaching blended learning sections were analyzed. Results indicate that student performance in the traditional and blended learning sections of the course were comparable and that students reported high levels of interaction with their instructor. Faculty teaching the course share insights on transitioning to the blended learning format.

This study is based on John L. Holland’s theory in which he defined six career personality types. Following this theory one of the aims of the study is to find out what is the percentage of individual types amongst students of pedagogical programmes. Further the research aims to discover how much are students of pedagogical programmes motivated to become teachers and what is the relation between the motivation to become a teacher and scores in scales of a Questionnaire of career choice and planning of professional career. We also attempted to identify the motivation related to gender and different pedagogical study programmes. The results show that the most motivated are students of Kindergarten teacher training and Primary school teacher training. Generally female students are more motivated than male students. From the personality types amongst students of pedagogical programmes the most common is Social type (S) and the least common is the Investigative type (I).
