This paper discusses a new e-learning method which use thematic learning to make knowledge integrated into a whole and use blended learning mode to improve the feasibility of thematic learning and make e-learning surrounded with a meaningful environment. At first, the definition and the model of theme-based blended e-learning are proposed. The model shows how the two learning mode are linked in the activities of the e-learning processes. In the theme-based blended learning, teachers design the themes and control the learning process which make the process of students´ self-exploring an under-control effective learning. An elaborate definition of process control is proposed as well. Finally a theme-based blended e-learning system is developed and a case is studied to show the efficient of the model.
