Abstract

With the advancements in ICT, involvement of teachers and learners in teaching and learning significantly changed. Traditional learning became interwoven with multimedia based e-learning systems which eventually stretched outside classroom world into e-learning universe. Recently, traditional face-to-face classroom learning and e-learning merged their characteristics into promising combination named blended learning. The most important benefits of blended learning are: students can manage their study time, they can select the delivery format of learning content and improved learning interaction. Synchronous and asynchronous communication and teacher-centered and learner-centered approaches are combined to maximize the efficiency of learning. One of important factors for successful blended learning is efficient e-learning material. Its efficiency is further dependent also from the type of material and the ability of software for preparing the e-learning material. In the paper we present the blended learning approach used for the last three years in course Software, and the research we perform on using rich media presentations prepared with Microsoft Producer and AuthorPoint that are specially suited for blended learning.
