By using OER, school districts can keep overall costs for instructional materials low.

EducationSuperHighway partners with governors and state agencies to accelerate school upgrades, helping to ensure that state leaders take advantage of billions in FCC funding to get fiber to every school, Wi-Fi in every classroom, and broadband schools can afford.

TLA and 2Revolutions developed a framework, assessment tool, and Innovation Scorecard for organizational leaders at the state level as they work to create a Culture of Innovation.

Open Educational Resources (OER) are teaching, learning, and research resources that reside in the public domain.

In order for what we know to benefit students, we must share and consume knowledge about what works in blended learning in multiple forms and fora.

It is yet to be determined if the evidence supports a single unifying “vision” for blended learning implementation. Research can and should take the form of qualitative investigations, validation experiments, and implementation studies.

More evidence is needed about the circumstances (e.g., institutional structures, systems, policies) that facilitate or inhibit successful blended learning implementation. Research can and should take the form of validation experiments, and implementation studies.

More evidence is needed about the constituents (learners and educators) that are most or least likely to benefit from blended learning implementation. Research can and should take the form of validation experiments, and implementation studies.

More evidence is needed about the conditions (e.g., content areas, blended models) that facilitate or inhibit successful blended learning implementation. Research can and should take the form of validation experiments, and implementation studies.

More evidence is needed to answer questions that educators and decision-makers are facing in practice. This evidence exists within classrooms, and educators have the easiest and most consistent access to it.
