Towards blended learning: A case study

University education is in the middle of a technological and pedagogical revolution. Traditional models are under considerable pressure to change. In this paper, we introduce a case where IT education was radically challenged by new possibilities. The case is a small university department, which runs a Master´s degree program for an annual intake of about 60 students. The students study while working either full or part-time. Thus, the key challenge is to enable an efficient balance between work and studies especially by supporting distance learning. This means that the location and schedule of studies have to be flexible. One way has been to increase the multiformity of the pedagogical methods. For example, teaching is moving increasingly toward the flipped classroom method. In addition to the teachers´ own video production, external academic Internet sources have been used and experiments have also been made of using external Massive Open Online Course materials for example in executing web development and database courses. This paper is a summary and analysis of the observations from the viewpoint of the students, teachers, and administration. Some plans and future intentions are also presented.
