BLENDED LEARNING: RIGHT SOLUTION FOR FUTURISTIC EDUCATION

In Online Learning, the students study from home or any other place, that is most convenient for them. They can acquire learning material online. The study materials in online education could be texts, audio, notes, videos, and images. However, the method of study has its benefits and various drawbacks too. Online education is suitable for those who cannot visit or obtain the traditional education method for one reason or the other. Now a days education has changed. A shift in the profile of the student body has changed the face of learning and education. Learning is no longer confined within classroom walls nor are the teachers and students required to be in the same location at the same time. The multiple instructional delivery modalities in blended learning not only accommodate the various learning needs of our students but also give lecturers the freedom and ability to meet other tasks and responsibilities. On-line learning previously rejected as foreign to our distance communities and people's field-dependent cognitive style is being viewed more favorably as part of a blended learning mode.
