For the past decade, e-learning has emerged as a prominent delivery mechanism in educational settings. Now, it is not uncommon to find courses that are delivered fully online or in a blended learning (Bonk & Graham, 2006) mode. In addition, with the pervasive use of handheld, mobile, and wireless technologies, mobile learning (i.e., m-learning) and ubiquitous learning (i.e., u-learning) have received extensive attention as promising trends in the field of distance education. Indeed, our goals, related to the design of environments where learning happens at anytime and any place, seem more reachable with such emerging educational technologies that maximize mobility, connectivity, and versatility. Add to that options for learner participation and contribution within such an environment, as is seen with many online tools today, and there are many exciting opportunities for learnercentered online instruction.

This article reports on the use of blended learning in higher education. Blended learning has become popular in higher education in recent years. It is a move beyond traditional lecturing to incorporate face-to-face learning with e-learning, thereby creating a blend of learning experiences. The problem is that learning in higher education is complex and learning situations differ across contexts. Whilst there is face-to-face contact at some institutions, others offer distance learning or correspondence learning. In each context, the mode of learning may differ. The challenge is to cater for various learning opportunities through a series of learning interactions and to incorporate a blended approach. The aim of this study was to examine various ways of defining blended learning in different contexts. This was done through an examination of experiences of the use of blended learning in different higher education contexts. The study presents a case of blended learning in a postgraduate course. The experiences from all these cases are summarised and conclusions and recommendations are made in the context of blended learning in higher education in South Africa.

En el actual contexto social, el uso de los dispositivos móviles se ha masificado de tal manera, que su empleo como herramienta de enseñanza y de aprendizaje en entornos académicos es extremadamente útil. Por lo tanto surge el concepto de Mobile Learning (aprendizaje móvil), que ayuda a los docentes a administrar su práctica docente y a los estudiantes a facilitar su aprendizaje a través del uso apropiado de las Tecnologías de Información y las Comunicaciones TIC; de esta forma la realización de un aprendizaje por medios electrónicos (E-Learning) debe ser centralizada en una plataforma de aprendizaje virtual y conectada con un ambiente multiplataforma de dispositivos móviles con interconexión a la red de comunicaciones de la Universidad. La coexistencia de M-Learning versus E-Learning, van a permitir al docente alinearse con los estudiantes en el uso apropiado de las TIC, para producir beneficios en el aprendizaje a distancia, de tal manera que los recursos tecnológicos puedan ser aprovechados y la comunidad académica se apropie de los recursos a través de nuevas interfaces de comunicación móvil como es el propósito de la investigación realizada para la Universidad Antonio Nariño.
