Next Generation Learning Challenges has awarded Bryn Mawr College a $250,000 grant to study blended learning approaches to introductory STEM courses in a liberal arts setting. Over the 2011-2012 academic year several Bryn Mawr faculty members are experimenting with different ways of integrating open-license online tutorials and courseware into traditional classroom-based courses in these areas. The Provost’s Office will then study the impact that this “blended learning” model (i.e., the integration of online and classroom learning) has on course completion and performance, persistence in STEM majors, and college completion. As part of the grant, Bryn Mawr will share its findings and resources with partner institutions across the country.
