My thoughts about blended learning is that I think it is the future of the classroom. And according to the Michigan survey I came up with 35. Which means distance learning is a good possibility for me. I am a relatively independent learner, seek out help when you need it, and are fairly comfortable with technology. However, I need to manage my time better.

My readiness for blended learning could be better. I have developed for myself a good concept of what it is, but how to use it effectively is another story.  The quiz I took showed me mildly prepared to take an online class, but teaching it will involve so much more than me being ready to take the class. I will have to use blended learning assessments to find out what and how students will work with online assignments. With so many learning styles, I as a teacher have to be prepared to work with all of them!

I took the MCC survey and the survey said that online learning would be OK for me. I am not much of a fan of online learning. I feel that there can and should be a component of online learning but I do not think that all learning should be online. Students still need face-to-face interactions with teachers and other students. While students can get some of this online, the actual physical presence of others is important. Online learning is becoming a large part of education and teachers need to learn how to stay ahead of the game in this aspect t continue to improve as educators.

I think that it would put students in the mindset that the classroom can be mainly based online. High school students especially have gone through years of school in the classroom and may be against doing a lot of work online because they are used to the one-on-one contact with the teacher. However, giving them surveys like this will show them just how beneficial online-based classrooms can be.
