Glossary of e-learning terms and attributes
Blended learning
a mode of learning that combines characteristics of both synchronous and asynchronous learning, and is probably the most frequent mode in which e-learning is deployed. The typical blended e-learning (blended-learning) scenario is a course taught in a traditional classroom augmented with online materials and technologies; alternatively, it may be an online module interspersed with face-to-face components mediated by a tutor.
