Abstract

The focus for blended learning in education has grown immensely in the last decade. The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 ignited the need to transform the traditional face-to-face classroom setting to online and blended learning environments. These transitions can be a daunting and challenging task, especially in underprivileged communities where resources are few and facilitators and institutions are not well-equipped to make the change. This chapter provides a theoretical overview of blended learning that focusses on defining blended learning, benefits and challenges of blended learning, and blended learning models. The chapter concludes by presenting “a blended learning toolbox” that can be used to assist facilitators in the design process of blended learning environments.
