		<title>The Blended Classroom: Teaching Techniques for Students Today</title>
		<description>
			<![CDATA[
				Thursday, April 10, 2008 3:30 pm, LIB 204. Many students experience a disconnect between their experience in the classroom and their personal interactions on the web. One way to address this is the integration of tools that students already use with regularity. This presentation will explain how to do this with an introduction to blended learning, and it will cover how blended learning techniques can be used to strengthen the academic experience. Blended learning techniques can lead to a more engaged and communicative class and help prepare students for the changing work force.
