Shepherd, C. (2015). More Than Blended Learning. Eastleigh UK: The More Than Blended Learning Company.
Clive Shepherd, who works extensively in skills training, has developed a design approach based on Preparation, Input, Application and Follow-up (PIAF) and this book provides examples of how this works. The key is student engagement - creating designs, which hook the learner and keep them involved at every stage of their learning journey. There is strong emphasis on learner supports and varied resources over the length of a course. Formal learning is not excluded, but seen as one of many components in a designed and deliberate approach to learning.
