I think this type of learning will be considerably more effective in quantitative subjects than qualitative ones. Maths especially but essentially any subject that has 'right' answers lends its self well to this as content and tests can be automated algorithmically.
I'm curious however to see how this works in humanity type subjects that require more critical thinking and higher order reasoning. These seem to me to still require human interpretation in order to assess understanding.
- lmcglone 15y agoPerhaps it's easier to conceptualize how to structure classes that are quantitative and that's where the technology will move first. Also, the people with the talent to create the software might have a bias toward the qualitative subjects. The later will be a much harder problem to solve, but any student who has experienced the feeling of being a few steps ahead or behind the rest of the class would benefit from blended learning in any subject.
