Blendspace – Blended Learning – “Constructivism Theory”

 

Blendspace is an innovated E-Learning tool for both teachers and students. It provides an online and face to face experience through the principle “Instruction Theory” of learning.         

Blendspace allows one to create multimedia lessons using videos, text, quizzes and links. One may input their information through Blendspace “drag and drop” operational tool, before organising their content into different cubes.  The teacher and student may select their content from google, their own computer or YouTube.

Blendspace gives one the opportunity to create, edit, review and update their saved lessons, students can move through a lesson while commenting and completing quizzes that can be kept either private or shared.

Blendspace focuses on direct instruction from the teacher and the sharing of information appears in a power point format. The quizzes on Blendspace are only multi-choice questions. 

Blendspace provides loads of educational information and resources which may cause both teachers and student may confusion.

Blendspace allows both teachers and student to interact and share information instantly.  Teacher can add the class to the lesson and view the students who has joined the class.

Teachers can assess student throughout the learning process, the lesson can be shared with the class as homework and is an excellent tool for student who have missed the class or wish to revise.  The content of each lesson can be sourced, arranged and updated when needed, which is excellent for legal studies as the law is continuously been revised as society changes. Teacher can ask students to create their individual/group lesson and provide a class presentation.

The teacher may use the “motivational theory” to examine the student’s lesson, in order to gain a better understanding of each student thoughts and motivation for learning. Blendspace is an audio, visual and practice tool and teachers may use the “constructivism theory” in order to gain a student’s interaction between their experiences and ideas.  https://www.blendspace.com/
