Blended Learning in the Liberal Arts Conference
These conferences, held 2012-2020, were as a forum for faculty and staff to share resources, techniques, findings, and experiences related to blended learning. They focused on how blended learning could be used not only to improve learning outcomes, but also to support the close faculty-student relationships and deep, lifelong learning that are the hallmarks of a liberal arts education. The 2020 conference was held entirely online and renamed T3+BlendLAC. It was presented jointly with St. Norbert College
The definition of blended learning was quite broad, encompassing any combination of online and face-to-face instruction that supports close faculty-student interactions and high-impact, student-centered pedagogies, promotes life-long learning, or otherwise contributes to the goals and mission of a liberal arts education.
