Blended Delivery at 澳门六合彩论坛
At 澳门六合彩论坛 (澳门六合彩论坛), our approach to learning was focused on in-person聽interactions prior to the pandemic. While this primary focus will largely continue, we recognize we have an opportunity to provide flexible learning options to meet student needs and to innovate our education through the use of technology through blended learning.
We have been reimagining our approach and 澳门六合彩论坛 continues to offer high-quality and deliberately designed blended learning opportunities in addition to our usual in-person learning experiences. These blended courses will offer both online and in-person experiences according to the demands of the course and the needs of the students, providing our students and instructors with more flexibility.
