Abstract

Background and Aims: Blended learning can help students achieve better results. This allows teachers to respond to the changing needs of learners in the 21st century and to improve teaching and learning outcomes. A synthesis of knowledge regarding the theory, practice, and effectiveness of blended learning will help make educational management successful.

Methodology: This research is document research. It was carried out by systematic collection and analysis of well-known articles, books, conference documents, and other academic publications to find facts about theory, practice, and effectiveness thoroughly and comprehensively. The results of the study will help promote understanding of blended learning from diverse perspectives and reliable sources.

Results: The results of research on theory, practice, and effectiveness consist of several dimensions as follows: (1) Blended learning theory involves 1.1) overview of blended learning theory, 1.2) constructivist and sociocultural perspectives, and 1.3) application of blended learning theory to effective learning design. (2) Guidelines for blended learning include 2.1) blended learning models, 2.2) application of blended learning in educational contexts, and 2.3) effective integration of face-to-face and online blended learning. (3) Effectiveness of blended learning consists of 3.1) research on the effectiveness of blended learning, 3.2) impacts on student participation, academic achievement, and student satisfaction, 3.3) a comparison with traditional face-to-face and fully online teaching, and 3.4) factors influencing the effectiveness of blended learning. However, the implementation of blended learning has many obstacles, ranging from operation, acceptance, lack of knowledge and skills in managing blended learning, readiness of technology and infrastructure, etc.

Conclusions: Knowledge and understanding of the theory, practice, and effectiveness of blended learning are important in modern education management, consistent with the educational context in the digital age, and helping students be successful and satisfied in learning. Although there may be some problems, they can be overcome with proactive action.
