Book Description

The recent pandemic experiences confirmed the need for a learning context that strengthens the bonds of a community of learners by sharing a physical and virtual space. There is a growing awareness of the need to design blended and hybrid training solutions, which bring together face-to-face moments and extended ones of remote cooperation supported by communication environments of synchronous and asynchronous nature. Blended courses demonstrate greater effectiveness in preventing or lowering the incidence of the dropout phenomenon due to emotional components of poor adherence to the training contract. The classroom environment expands into a learning network where developing technological and social skills creates real and virtual learning communities. In these contexts, the digital becomes a catalyst for creative design and research experiences. This booklet brings old and familiar concepts to the post-pandemic reader attention with a divulgation intent. This is the translated, edited and curated edition by the same author.
