Blended learning

collaborative | engaging | flexible

“Discipline issues actually decrease in this environment where students have more freedom. We encourage them to take ownership of their education and utilize the technology they have at their disposal.”

- Kris LucasSouth Campus Building Director

Begin the school year attending classes daily. In order to qualify students will need:• C or better in all academic classes.• No unexcused absences.• No documented discipline issues• Students will need to qualify each week.

Students who have not met the Hybrid Program requirements will:• Come to school on Friday • Have more one-on-one time with teachers• Receive extra help• Take advantage of dedicated time to work on classroom assignments

The Delaware Area Career Center (DACC) affirms that equal opportunities are offered without regard to race, color, religion, sex, military status, national origin, disability, age, and ancestry of person. For more

information, visit our website at www.DelawareAreaCC.org.

In a traditional classroom setting, over 75% of our students’ days are spent sitting in hard-backed desk chairs, focused on a teacher. This can be a lot to ask of today’s students, which is why DACC incorporates Blended Learning into our educational toolbox.

Assignments are blended.When it best benefits the students, lectures and reading material are assigned as homework and the problem-solving work that students normally do at home is done in the classroom with teacher supervision and collaboration among classmates.

Increased one-on-one time with instructors.In this Blended Learning environment, students are given the freedom to move at their own pace by independently mastering a skill before moving on. When students do prove mastery, they have more flexibility in how they spend their classroom time to best benefit their educational experience.This model is successful because our teachers have the ability to focus on personalized instruction, intervention, and enrichment.

Comfortable learning environment.The traditional desks arranged in rows have been replaced with booths, high-top tables, and padded benches in what looks like a coffee shop setting. Students are encouraged to move around and collaborate using mobile & ergonimically correct furniture. Chrome books are also available for student use so that they can connect to large screens and work together on class projects.

HyBrid Fridays

Qualifying for Hybrid Fridays provides our students great opportunities, including:• Spend additional time on lab projects• Participate in job shadowing or internships• Further build a resume and portfolio
