well, Blended Animated Teaching (BAT) is a complete online blended teaching solution comprising conceptually itemized schemes of work, tutor like teaching objects and practical classroom pedagogy. Using BAT, higher education students' learning experience of ‘Programming' at City of Sunderland College was noticeably improved. This subject had been noted to cause many students great difficulty and has been reported as a teaching bottleneck by other researchers (Sayers et al 2004, Scott 2004, Koper et al 2004, Boyle 2005).
In class, BAT requires an overhead projector and a simple sound system. By interacting with students, the conducting lecturer prepares the students, then plays the animated lessons and assesses students' understanding via a range of online activities or exercises.
Online availability of BAT, which has been used as the backbone of our blended teaching pedagogy, provided our learners with extra flexibility, better class interaction, attractive teaching material, learning continuity, resource standardization and full time alternative support and hence helped us deal with differentiation more efficiently and increase learner engagement.
