Blended Learning to advance Teaching and Learning

The integration of Information Communication Technologies in education has revolutionised teaching and learning processes in the midst of concerns raised regarding poor student completion rate, low passing rates and throughput rates. This study explores the significance of Learning Management Systems (LMS) and the implementation of blended learning (BL) in higher education institutions (HEIs). A case study was followed in an HEI of the Gauteng Province in South Africa. The study used mixed-methods to demonstrate that BL improves lecture facilitation based on student performance; qualitative analysis confirmed that BL improvement influence student performance, and the missing aspects disrupt BL to reach optimal levels. The paper concludes that embracing BL can enhance student completion rates, pass rates, and overall academic success.
