On behalf of the 11th Annual Sloan Consortium Blended Learning Conference and Workshop steering committee, I want to welcome you. I hope to see you at this year's Blended Learning Conference and Workshop!

This year’s conference theme is Blended Learning: Pathways to Student Success. The theme emphasizes the centrality of the learner in our blended learning designs. The primary reasons why there is a significant trend towards blended learning across the globe is because of its potential to increase learning effectiveness and flexibility for the learner.
