It is a learning design perspective
deeply rooted in the needs of
students, with the main objective
being to provide them with the
most flexibility about the learning
content, schedules, access, and
learning styles as possible.
A flexible learning design
customizes learning environments
to meet the needs of learners,
using both technological and non-
technological tools. Flexible
Learning is closely related to
Blended Learning and Distributed
Learning.
What is Blended learning and
Distributed learning?
BLENDED LEARNING
- is an approach to education that combines online educational
materials and opportunities for interaction online with
traditional place-based classroom methods. It requires the
physical presence of both teacher and student, with some
elements of student control over time, place, path, or pace.
DISTRIBUTED LEARNING
- is an instructional model that allows instructor, students, and
content to be located in different, noncentralized locations so
that instruction and learning can occur independent of time
and place.
What are the benefits
of Flexible Learning to
the students?
• Improved learning outcomes
resulting from evidence-based and
technology-enabled teaching
methods
• Enhanced personalization of
degree programs
