How to measure local initiatives with program development and improvement in mind

This five-step guide shows educators how to measure their own blended learning initiatives, so that results are useful to them as well as contribute to a general body of knowledge about blended learning.

The Learning Accelerator created this guide to help educators understand how to approach measurement of their own blended learning initiatives, so that the results are useful to them and their own local needs, while also contributing to a more general body of knowledge about blended learning that can be useful to others.

It is meant to help anyone interested in measuring blended learning implementation with a focus on the teaching and learning that occurs within a blended model. It is best suited for school- or classroom-level measurement. The steps we include can be carried out by principals, district administrators, coaches, and teachers. The guide begins with a general discussion about measurement as it relates to you, and is followed by five steps for developing a measurement plan for your blended learning initiative.
