Seven Principles

Blended learning has been studied for many years. However, it is necessary to assess whether blended learning is a good practice as opposed to face-to-face and online learning. Based on the Seven Principles for Good Practice in Undergraduate Education, a questionnaire was designed to compare blended learning in seven dimensions to traditional and online learning. A total of 653 students participated in the research. Independent T-test, paired T-test and ANCOVA were conducted using SPSS. The results showed that blended learning was reported to have a higher effectiveness than traditional learning for all seven principles and a higher effectiveness than online learning for most of the principles. Learning modes had a significant effect on student perceptions on most of the principles. Gender had significant effect on student perception of all seven principles, while year of study and knowledge domain did not show significant effects on most of the principles. Possible reasons for these findings are discussed.

The Future

Many educational experts predict that in the future blended learning will become far more common than traditional Face-to-Face (F2F) or online learning. With this in mind, instructors are being asked or required to move F2F courses to a blended environment. When doing so, there are a variety of issues to consider. Thus, a framework for transference is necessary. This framework includes the seven principles for good practice for undergraduate education. This chapter covers the essential topics to help educators conduct a successful transference and uphold the quality of their courses.

The formation of the Blended learning concept is due to an understanding of combining the power of face-to-face learning with online learning. This opens the possibility for a redesign that goes beyond enhancing the traditional classroom lecture. Blended learning represents a new approach and a combination of face-to-face learning with online learning activities that are consistent with specific program objectives. The problems that can be summarized by the author based on a survey in July 2020 to 45 students who are in the second semester class include; a total of 28% of students have not mastered the google classroom platform implemented by the STIT Raden Wijaya campus, 85.6% have difficulty understanding the learning materials delivered by the lecturers, 71.6% of students stated that there were many assignments and were burdened with deadlines for submitting assignments, and 82.7 % of students want face-to-face learning. Based on the focus of the study, this study aims to determine the increase in the effectiveness of classroom-based online learning through the implementation of blended learning for Teaching Professional Courses in Semester II at STIT Raden Wijaya Mojokerto for the 2019/2020 Academic Year. This research uses quantitative methods. This type of research is an experimental research. The subjects of this study were students of the even semester of the 2019/2020 academic year in the Islamic Education Study Program of STIT Raden Wijaya Mojokerto. The population of this study were second semester students (class 2019), with saturated sampling totaling 46 students consisting of 2 classes. Namely the experimental class 23 and the control class 23. The results of the study that have been discussed, it can be concluded that learning using blended learning is better than students who only use online learning. These results are proven by the results of the Independent Sample t-test, it is known that the average learning rate with blended learning is 56.00 greater than online learning which is 51.96. The analysis must go through two stages, namely the F test and the t test. It is known that F is 3,668 with a probability of 0.62, because 0.62> 0.05, it can be concluded that the two variants are the same or identical. t test post test results with Equal variances assumed (assuming the two variants are the same) is -3,748 with a probability of 0.001, because 0.001 <0.05; It can be concluded that on average, blended learning is different from online learning

Face To Face Instruction

With the ever-increasing development of technology, online teaching is more readily accepted as a viable component in teaching and learning, and blended learning, the combining of online and face-to-face learning, is becoming commonplace in many higher education institutions. Blended learning is, particularly in developing countries, in its early stages and not without its challenges. Asynchronous online lessons are currently still more prevalent in many areas of South-East Asia, perhaps due to potential difficulty in obtaining strong Internet connections, which may deter educators from synchronous options. Technological media have the potential to broaden the scope of resources available in teaching and to enhance the language learning experience. Although research to date shows some focus on blended learning, literature on distance online teaching seems more prevalent. This study exposed 112 Malaysian undergraduate EFL students' responses to an online lesson as part of an English grammar course, and investigates common student perceptions of the online lesson as compared with face-to-face lessons. Questionnaires using qualitative (Likert scale questions) and quantitative (open-ended questions) approaches provided data for content analysis to determine common student perceptions, with particular reference to motivation and interest. In general, more students associated in-class lessons with higher motivation and more interest, due to better understanding, valued classroom interaction with the lecturer and peers, and input from the lecturer. Students preferring the online lesson cited speed and convenience of study and flexibility of time and place of study as reasons for their choice. Skilful implementation of online lessons can enhance a language course but should not undermine the value of face-to-face instruction with EFL teachers.
