The Blended Learning Cycle

In his video he explains a cycle that he uses when he teaches his science classes. in his video he uses the word Quivers. (and yes as in a bow and quiver that holds arrows)I would compare this to the scientific method. For the first phase of his cycle he uses "Qu" which he uses question. Here you state the question. The next letter is I, which is for investigation which is where you research the information for the question. Next letter is "V", which is video where you watch videos on the subject which you are studying. Next is "e" for elaboration, where you have the information and develop it and put it together to fully understand the previous question. The last is "R" which is for review, which is where you look over what you have done.
My thoughts on the cycle is a great idea, because it can be used for any subject. You can use it to solve math problems, do science projects, or even write a research paper. Everyone could use this to learn on their own. They can use it to find information and learn more about the subject on their own.

  1. Ethan- nice post, and I like the design of your blog. You did the same thing I did which is only completing one part of this blog post. Check the class blog- it explains what you will have to do to have it completely updated. Good luck finishing up EDM 310 and this semester!
