Some scenarios of Constructivism based blended learning activities are presented in this paper. In addition, a Constructivism Based Blended Learning model for “ICT Management” course, a compulsory course in Master of Management Information Systems program at Hasselt University, is proposed. The proposed model applies and combines Constructivism and Conversation theories in Blended Learning environment, in which the student is an active maker of knowledge. In the proposed model a variety of learning activities and scenarios, differentiated for working students and regular students are applied, supported by innovative ICT tools, which facilitate applying Constructivism and Conversation theories and increase the level of communication and interaction between students; as a result, learning quality, experience and outcomes are increased effectively. | Keywords: | Blended Learning; E-Learning; Constructivism Theory; Conversation Theory; Higher Education | Document URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/1942/13753 | ISBN: | 9783642358784 | Category: | C1 | Type: | Proceedings Paper | Validations: | vabb 2015 |
