3. BLENDED LEARNING
Christensen: Students learn at least in part
through online delivery of content and
instruction with some element of control over
time, place, path, and/or pace.
Getting Smart: A shift to an online delivery for a
portion of the day to make students, teachers
and schools more productive.
18. COMPETENCY-BASED LEARNING
A system in which students advance
upon mastery, as determined by
assessing a set of explicit, measurable
competencies over time.
