Blended learning, beyond the classroom

Abstract

In this paper we present a thorough literature review of different analyses and meta-analyses recently made to define the concept of e-learning and its impact on university. We consider the models, tools and strategies that can be implemented in Higher Education from the perspective of teachers, students or the teaching and learning planning process, and offer recommendations oriented to pedagogical planning and the integration of different training modalities (e-learning, b-learning and face-to-face), taking into account the need to guide training processes based on flexibility and continuous change. We approach b-learning from a general perspective oriented to plan its implementation in Higher Education as a strategy of change with an organizational character.
