I'm sharing a link to a web site maintained by the Sloan Consortium that explores topics related to blended learning in education and work settings. Information is available on the site that explores the blended learning approach to teaching, which has been the focus of this conversation.

Regulating the use of technologies among students in a technology dependent society is an ethical issue. How many of you are working for departments and/or colleges and universities that have developed guidelines and policies to govern decision-making processes related to restricting or banning use of various technologies in classrooms on campus? I'm finding this is happening more ofen in K-12 education and work settings than higher education.
