Example of a paragraph that summarizes how a particular article/paper/chapter contributes to the construction of a blended learning design framework. This research will address the following research questions:

1-What factors are critical in determining what forms of blended learning an educational institution should use?

2-How can the identified factors be used to construct a model that an educational institution can utilize in its course design process?

3-Using the case study of I B. F. University, how effective is the model in designing a “blended learning” course?

4-How does blended learning affect students’ attitudes and understanding of their programs?

So, based on all that information I want you to write a clear, focused, concise summary similar to the example to link the research idea which is the construction of a blended learning design framework to measure the effectiveness of using this framework and the research questions.

the example:

deNoyelles, Futch, Howard and Thompson (2016) report a qualitative study of three community college successful blended learning instructors from three institutions and three disciplines. The authors propose a “comfort” model of student success (in blended learning) in which comfort (“reducing of students’ vulnerabilities, brought about by instructors’ design and teaching strategies” – no page #) mediates the contributions of support (resources that provide students with knowledge such as how to use the LMS and study independently), organization (the course design as described in a syllabus), and communication (between students and their instructor and among students) in student success (see Figure x). Their data showed that the original conceptualization of the three mediated constructs as independently influencing comfort was naïve. In fact, communication and organization interdependently influence support, which is seen to be “a fuzzier, more open concept with less defined boundaries” (no page #), through multiple strategies associated with each construct (e.g., providing more personal feedback to students; and reducing the amount of face-to-face time while increasing, and replacing it with more office hours and teaching time management strategies). The authors do emphasize that while “blended courses tend to be unique to the discipline and instructor” (no page #) the strategies can be customized to improve communication, organization and support and ultimately to increase comfort.
