Blended Learning with Edmentum

We understand that as an educator one of your biggest challenges is finding new ways to reach, engage and motivate students. At its core, blended learning models are fundamentally designed to help schools implement technology into the learning environment and also personalize learning experiences to each student.

Edmentum’s comprehensive portfolio of flexible solutions and services help empower school districts to implement successful blended learning programs tailored to meet the unique needs of their learners.

Christenson Institute defines blended learning as: “a formal education program in which a student learns at least in part through online delivery of content and instruction with some element of student control over time, place, path or pace.”
