Six Types of Blended Learning
Face-to-Face Driver Model

This model ensures that the online instruction is taken on case-by-case basis where only a certain students will participate. It allows students who are working above their grade level to progress at their own pace by using technology in the classroom. This model is found to be significant to the English Language Learners(ELL) as English is not their native language.

Rotation Model

The students do not stay at a single station throughout the learning process but they rotate from one station to another i.e. sometimes they work by online while at other times, by face-to-face with the teacher. They become more active learners.

Flex Model

This model is meant to those students who are non-traditional learners. The learning material is delivered online. The students are self-guided even if the teacher resource is available on-site. The students work independently and learn to develop and create new concepts in a digital environment. They work in computer labs most of the time.

Online Lab Model

This model is helpful in schools where there are constraints in resource availability. It helps the students to complete their course including the students who were not offered at specific sites. The entire course is learned online and the students go to computer labs to complete their coursework. The adults who supervise the labs in this model are not trained-teachers.

Self-Blend Model

Here, the students are provided with opportunities to take classes which are beyond what has been taught at school. Besides attending traditional classes, they also take up online courses remotely. Students are highly self-motivated. It is ideal for the students who want to take Advanced Placement Courses.

Online Driver Model

This model is in complete contrast to the Face-to-Face model. The students work remotely and the material is provided online. It is ideal for those students who want flexibility and independence in their daily schedules.
