The last decades have brought significant changes in all areas of education. These transformations are involved in teaching and learning, constantly reinventing to answer questions of why, how, what to teach, and what the significance will be. Taking into consideration the education model that is needed in the 21st century, it is found that one of the striking approaches is blended learning, where, as Joi To mentioned, it is a bottom-up innovation process where innovation is present, leaving behind the traditional rules that institutions have.
In the same sense, Monique Markoff, in her conference, points out that blended learning is a ray of hope for the transformation of education through individual interventions, and this method will allow students to learn and teachers to do so. Now, from there, the question arises, in what way? Students have a personalized learning route, a dynamic where they will learn at their own pace, obtain immediate feedback, and be able to manage their lessons and learning, helping them to be independent. In the case of teachers, they will be innovators focused on creating complex individual learning paths, taking into account the program according to the characteristics of their students.
Blended learning is an excellent way to promote the teaching and learning process in light of the challenges and opportunities of the 21st century and new trends. I find myself flexible to incorporate technology into education, taking advantage of the benefits and challenges it implies, appropriating this model and promoting collaborative work and autonomous learning, and finally being able to inspire the students.
