TURPO GEBERA, Osbaldo Washington. Contexto y desarrollo de la modalidad educativa blended learning en el sistema universitario iberoamericano. RMIE [online]. 2010, vol.15, n.45, pp.345-370. ISSN 1405-6666.

Information and communication technologies (ICT) are becoming increasingly present in educational processes, diversifying the supply of education. Thus universities, especially in Latin America, have undertaken diverse educational innovations that use ICT; such is the case of blended learning. This modality has acquired varied representations during its development, reflecting a wealth of knowledge that should be widely shared and systematized for reference in other contexts. The experiences analyzed in this study show the modality's feasibility, viability and broad possibilities for application and adjustment to educational scenarios; an indication is made of valuable contributions that must be considered in pedagogical designs. Universities are responsible for continuing to (re)create these innovations, according to the perspective of sharing and integrating responses for establishing education more in agreement with the demands of today's world.

Palabras llave : virtual education; classroom education; universities; Latin America.
