Synchronous learning involves students interacting with a teacher in real time, while asynchronous learning involves students working outside of a classroom setting and at their own pace

WHAT IS BLENDED LEARNING?

Blended Learning encompasses a mixture of online and face to face working methods and learning activities where the students actively work with learning content, individually and in collaboration with each other and with the Instructor.

Blended Learning tends to outperform classroom learning by relatively large magnitudes, probably because the E- learning used in Blended Learning often uses more effective learning methods. Blended Learning is not just about efficiency, but also about learning more effectively.

Grassroots courses:  2 Hours Virtual - Synchronous and 2 Hours In Person.

For those coaches who wish to coach in the upcoming seasons they should adhere by the Grassroots Pathway for coaching course requirements - with courses now in a Blended Format all coaches should attend an upcoming Blended Learning Course.  2 Hours Virtual- Synchronous and 2 Hours Field - In Person.
