It combines traditional face-to face classroom methods with more modern computer-mediated activities.” - Wikipedia Blended Learning Methodology: includes online/mobile and classroom learning for either initial view or review of content Inverted classroom/classroom flipping: initial knowledge acquisition on a topic or theory can happen per individual in a self-paced method outside of class.

Student presentations: capture/view outside of the classroom, and more time for discussion/interaction in class
