Abstract

Blended learning, an innovative learning environment has been found useful in terms of opportunity to improve teaching and learning among other benefits. It is in the view of this; we carried out this study to find out the level of understanding, awareness and perception about the use of blended among the lecturers in a college of education in Osun State, Nigeria. In this study, we explored the level of understanding of blended learning, awareness of blended learning for teaching and, the perception about the use of blended learning among the lecturers. Convenience random sampling technique was used to compose a sample of 62 lecturers in the college. Frequency count, percentage, mean and standard deviation were calculated for the analysis of data. The findings revealed that majority of the lecturers (72.59%) indicated a moderate understanding of blended learning for teaching, and as much as 87% of lecturers are aware of blended learning for teaching. Also, the finding revealed that lecturers had positive perception about the use of blended learning. The study recommends that seminar and workshop should be organised for the lecturers to further update their knowledge on the benefits of blended learning for teaching.
