Abstract
There have been many attempts to define blended learning or hybrid learning. The purpose of this article is to present the views of the authors on defining the concepts of blended learning based on the perspectives of instructors, students, and administrators. Depending on the perspective model used, there can be implications on budgetary and support issues to institutions. Developing successful blended learning programs requires a sound institutional strategic plan. Best practices will be presented as reference for instructors to plan and implement a successful blended learning program.
