The advent of online testing has seen more American school districts taking on blended learning initiatives and increasing their digital infrastructure through various funding programmes and grants. Julia Freeland Fisher, the Clayton Christensen Institute's (BLU) director of education research, says there is growing willingness to embrace next-generation learning, therefore BLU has launched a new school directory called Blended Learning Universe (CCI) to track the efforts of around 300 American schools using the technique and to give school districts information about which blended learning practices are working and why, how to save on costs, where similar initiatives might be taking place, and how blended learning programmes change over time.
