Which term describes an instructional approach that blends online independent study with in-person meetings?

• A. Blended Learning
• B. Monopolizer
• C. Daydreamer
• D. Expert/Know It All Student

Answer: (A)

Blended Learning is the instructional approach that blends online independent study with in-person meetings. It mixes digital content and activities students can work through on their own with scheduled face-to-face time for discussion, hands-on practice, and feedback from the instructor. This setup keeps the flexibility and broad resources of online learning while preserving the collaborative and immediate guidance benefits of in-person sessions. The other terms describe people or attitudes rather than a teaching method, so they don’t fit as descriptions of how instruction is delivered.
