Design of the blended learning course in engineering education

Abstract

Blended Learning is a flexible learning model that combines the creative advances and technology of online learning with the interaction and engagement of face-to-face learning. One of the best ways to deal with the need for \"learning anywhere, learning anytime, learning everything, learning flexibly, learning openly and learning for the whole life\", which becomes an inevitable trend currently. This requires teachers to design a course and organize the teaching process to ensure the formation and development of learners’ self-learning ability as well as the cultivation of the skills in using and mastering technology. The paper outlines the steps to be taken to design a blended learning course to help teachers in the course design suitable for their teaching process at university meeting the fourth industrial revolution.
