Blended Learning: Exploring the Framework of Complex Adaptive Blended Learning Systems in Higher Ed

Tuesday, January 30, 2018 | 2:30PM–3:15PM CT | Preservation Hall, Second Floor
Session Type: Poster Session
Delivery Format: Poster Session
The adoption of a blended learning approach is increasing among higher ed institutions; however, there is limited research on how blended learning functions as a complex system. There is a need for more research focused on how system-based frameworks, such as the Framework of Complex Adaptive Blended Learning Systems (CABLS), can be applied to practice. This session will discuss research that explores key stakeholder roles and relationships that exist within the higher ed digital learning ecosystem. These findings may serve as a guiding force to drive institutions to adopt more dynamic, integrated, and collaborative blended learning environments.

Outcomes: Explore how various stakeholders perceive their roles within a blended higher ed setting * Discover how the dynamic roles of the CABLS framework subsystems interact with one another to create a rich digital learning ecosystem * Explore how a guiding framework helps stakeholders understand the complicated relationships within a blended learning environment
