3 Steps for Effective
Technology and Blended
Learning Implementation

5. 1. Reflect on your Remote Learning Experience
Dr. Monica Burns suggests taking time to reflect
on what technological tools or devices benefited
your students during remote learning and what
did not work as well. This reflection is a great way

7. 2. Find the Tools that Best Fit your Needs
After you have reflected on what
technological tools were beneficial during
remote learning, make a note that these are
the tools you want to continue to introduce
into a physical classroom. After you have a
list of the tools you plan to implement in your
classroom, take notes of what needs you still
need to fulfil through the use of technology.

9. 3. Determine your Ratio of Face-to-Face
Learning and Electronic Learning
When you begin implementing technology
and blended learning in your classroom, it is
important to determine the ratio of time
spent in front of the class versus assisting on
the side. Finding the ratio of time that works
best for you will allow the blended learning
implementation into your classroom to be
the most effective.

Technology and Blended Learning Advice
from an Ed-Tech Consultant

14. Dr. Monica Burns suggests using blended
learning to create differentiation in your
classroom, as blended learning intertwines
both learning styles of face-to-face
interaction and individual work. Since the
learning environment in blended learning
offers flexibility, Monica’s advice would be to
leverage this less rigid environment to
promote student choice.
