2. Student's feedback on 'Action Research on Blended Learning - 2020-22'
Dear Friends,
Yours was the Eleventh batch of Choice Based Credit and Semester System for M.A. programme. This new system gave us an opportunity to try out some 'Action Research' in Blended Learning / Flipped Learning /Micro-learning. It has been proved by several researches that a good proportion of mixed teaching-learning of Face-to-Face with Technology Integrated Learning helps students in improving their learning capabilities. It helps in self learning and gives a kind of freedom to student which empowers them to take right decision.
Thus, we modeled our CIA (Continuous Internal Assessment) wherein we blended ICT integration in form of Blog writing, PowerPoint presentation, Online Testing and Digital Portfolio. We tried to see that students actively participate in online discussion through Google Group, comments under blog and presentation (on slideshare.net) and get an exposure to ODOLE (On Demand OnLine Exam) through Moodle (with your batch we were not able to use MOODLE, we tried Google Docs / Quiz and Flubaroo).
Your academic profile in form of ePortfolio (digital portfolio) is linked on http://dilipbarad.blogspot.in/2012/04/project-blended-learning-2012.html.
Please give your honest feedback in the below given form to evaluate the 'action research'. You comments, feedback and suggestions will be quoted in research paper on this experiment.
I hope you understand the seriousness of this research and will spare ample time and sincerely give your opinion.
Please do not be in hurry. Take your time. Think, organise your ideas and then type your feedback.
Thank you!
Dilip Barad
