Hi everyone,

After the first ASIS&T SIG ED Webinar on blended learning, there was  
demand to explore the topic in greater depth. ASIS&T SIG ED is pleased  
to offer a series of 3 webinars on blended/hybrid learning by Bill  
Wisser.

The first webinar in the series - "Designing a Blended/Hybrid Learning  
Course" is scheduled for coming Thursday May 17th at 2:00pm EDT.

To register, please go to

Registration for each webinar is free for ASIS&T members and $20 for  
non-members.

Abstract of the first session

In the Introduction to Blended/Hybrid webinar participants learned  
that a blended or hybrid course must be completely redesigned to take  
advantage of the different mediums and present a meaningful learning  
experience for the students. This webinar will address popular models  
of designing a blended course including backwards design and the  
Communities of Inquiry model. Participants will learn the steps to  
consider when blending a course and review examples of blended course  
maps. Participants will also have access to an overall design template  
and a module template to complete on their own.
