“There has been a lot of talk about blended learning over the years,” Liberty said, “but we like to joke that it is a bit like a unicorn that people believe in but they have never seen it.”
The staff at BetterLesson carefully captured evidence of the unicorn, Liberty said, and they have video to prove it. Want to see it?
