What is Blended e-Learning?
(defined from TTT)
“Blended e-Learning is the smart use of e-Learning
tools, resources and teaching/learning strategies with
a blend of face to face and virtual approaches with the
aim of improving student learning.”
www.tetoitupu.org
Why e-learning?

Digital learning objects – e-pedagogy
Learning objects is designed to produce high-quality interactive multimedia
learning objects that support and enhance understanding of key
mathematical concepts for students from Year 1 to 10.
The learning objects are based on current research findings in mathematics
education and pedagogy. They focus on mathematics concepts that are
often the most difficult for students to learn and for teachers to teach, and
encourage higher order thinking and problem-solving approaches.
