Summary:
The article Exploration of a Blended Learning Approach To Reading Instruction For Low SES Students is about the way technological learning was shown by a documented study to have improved student performance. The article was written to advocate for the use of blended technology into traditional learning. The study concluded that blended learning improved students reading skills more than the curriculum without the use of technology did.

The article Exploration of a Blended Learning Approach To Reading Instruction For Low SES Students is about the way technological learning was shown by a documented study to have improved student performance. The article was written to advocate for the use of blended technology into traditional learning. The study concluded that blended learning improved students reading skills more than the curriculum without the use of technology did.
Assessment
- This is an article that is based upon current research within the
past five years.
- The article was written as part of research funded by Rosetta Stone, a trusted educational company.
- I believe the research to be accurate based upon the findings of the
study which concluded students who had access to blended learning had
better scores and performance than those who did not. I also find the
article to be believable because I have seen students find success from using
technology along with curriculum.

Summary:
The video Student Centered Model Blended Learning was about the way high school educators in Washington D.C used blended learning to improve student performance.
Assessment:
The video Student Centered Model Blended Learning was about the way high school educators in Washington D.C used blended learning to improve student performance.
Assessment:
- The video is
current as of this year. It is credible because it shows current educators
explaining how they use technology as well as their students first-hand
account of how the use of technology benefitted them.
- I appreciated how the educators in the video adapted their instruction when they noticed that the traditional model of teaching was not effective. The way students responed showed this to be an effective change with an incredibly positive impact on their learning.
Reflection on the benefits of blended learning:
- I feel that both the article and video provided great evidence that education needs the use of technology for students to be successful. I
have worked with students using technology in the classroom and witnessed
them become more interested and excited about learning. Technology is the
future and students without access to it will be at a disadvantage so why
not start using it to their advantage as soon as possible?

Angela, I really like your blog. My favorite section in your post is the video you chose; I think the teaching methods the school used is a good example for demonstrating a blended learning environment.
