International Association for K-12 Online Learning
This roadmap was designed to provide guidance to the New York City Department of Education (NYCDOE) school administrators in implementing blended learning programs in their own schools. Over the 2012-13 school year, the International Association for K-12 Online Learning (iNACOL) worked with 8 NYCDOE Lab Schools, each with its own blended learning model, to create this roadmap to improve blended learning implementation. This roadmap has the following goals: (1) Provide an overview of current blended learning models; (2) Provide an understanding of iLearnNYC program and its support system; (3) Identify and define 6 elements of a successful blended learning program; (4) Identify essential questions administrators should consider; (5) Share promising practices; (6) Provide case studies; and (7) Share resources: rubrics, timelines, and continuums. The following are appended: (1) Fordham High School for the Arts Profile; (2) Francis Lewis High School Profile; (3) Robert H. Goddard High School of Communication, Arts, and Technology Profile; (4) High School of Economics and Finance (HSEF) Profile; (5) Marta Valle High School Profile; (6) Mott Hall V Profile; (7) Olympus Academy Profile; (8) Seth Low Profile; (9) iLearnNYC: Blended Learning Quality Review Rubric; (10) Continuum from Textbook Enhanced to Online Teaching and Learning; and (11) iLearnNYC Observation Form. [iLearnNYC is an initiative of iZone, which was established by the New York City Department of Education.]
