Читать книгу The Perfect Blend - Michele Eaton - Страница 19

The Flex Model of blended learning is very similar to the Individual Rotation Model with two main differences: Online learning plays a heavier role in the Flex Model, and the teacher’s role in this environment is different as well. The teacher provides much of the instruction online and creates offline supports for the students.

According to the Clayton Christensen Institute (2019), “the Flex Model lets students move on fluid schedules among learning activities according to their needs.” Additionally, students have a greater amount of control in this particular environment. Many classrooms using the Flex Model look more like neighborhood coffee shops than traditional classroom spaces, with flexible seating to replicate the student choice that is a part of this model.
