Blended learning is a formal education program in which a student learns, at least in part, through the online delivery of content and instruction with some element of student control over time, place, path, and/or pace.Teachers that have successfully implemented blended learning into their classroom point to interaction
as the main factor of their success. Due to this, GoConqr has developed a
number of functions and tools that encourages active learning and
enables students to have more control over their learning process.
If all the online resources available in GoConqr at the moment were
paintings, we would need 685 Louvre museums to display all of them. Once
the teacher has introduced a topic, this huge amount of free
educational material gives students the opportunity to expand their
knowledge.For
instance, let’s say the class topic is about the Earth’s crust. In this
phase, students might want to explore deforestation further or maybe
create a few resources about agricultural practices. Basically, their
learning is driven by their interest.
GoConqr Study Groups are private environments where teachers can
communicate with their students as well as conduct frequent assessments.The function known as Group Analytics
compiles detailed data regarding students’ progress over time,
including individual results in quizzes as well as averages (per student
and per quiz), highest results, number of attempts, and more.
Once we analyze the results from the previous phase, we will be able
to identify the areas in which students are performing well in
addition to those areas in which there is room for improvement. Using
this information, teachers can intervene and re-focus students’ efforts.Going
back to the previous example, we could share study resources about climate change with one group and resources about the global consequences of climate change with another.
