Rotation ModelThe Rotation model is one in which
students rotate from online instruction
to face-to-face instruction. This could be
via a flipped classroom approach, in
which students view lecture videos at
home and work on homework-type
problems in class, to a station rotation
model, in which students rotate through
stations, at least one of which is online.
Flex ModelThe Flex model is one in which students
work through complete online curricula
in an brick-and-mortar classroom with
teachers there in person to help support
that work.
A La Carte Model
In the A La Carte model, students are
able to pick and chose between entirely
face-to-face courses or online courses in
any combination.
Enriched Virtual ModelThe least used model is the Enriched
Virtual model, in which students come
to just a few face-to-face sessions
(maybe at the beginning of the course
and at the end) and complete the rest of
their work online.
