# What is Blended Learning?

![A venn diagram from the early 2000's](https://2683392450-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-M34VGqY2RzPJqnHhhg1%2F-M4NfXtmzB7_JbDVMCgi%2F-M4NiTCE954yA9NkcIR8%2Fblended.png?alt=media\&token=4896c973-ecb5-40cb-a0b0-899d63f8618a)

Blended learning is the combination of traditional student-centred in-class learning with other complementary learning methodologies. This resource is currently intended as an accessible alternative to in-class learning which has been made unavailable due to COVID-19. The modules blend written guides, engaging videos, and hands-on challenges. Online webinars aim to provide hands-on support and to reinforce the content of the modules. The in-class workshops focus on problem-based group challenges - which we hope to have maintained on this online resource.
