An Integrated Model

In a review of instructional technology, Bosch (2016) compared four blended learning

models. These models emphasized the integration of pedagogy and technology in course design.
Anderson's model assumed that none of the instruction is delivered in traditional, face-to-face
mode. Among the models was a Blending with Pedagogical Purpose Model. This model contains
six basic pedagogical goals, and approaches for achieving them, to form learning modules. The
following paragraphs briefly review each of the six modules that make up the Humanities and
Social Sciences (HSS).
