Abstract

Blended learning is a learner-centered educational method that combines online and traditional face-to-face educational strategies. Simulation is a commonly utilized platform for experiential learning and an ideal component of a blended learning curriculum. This section describes blended learning, including its strengths and limitations, educational frameworks, uses within health professions education, best practices, and challenges. Also included is a brief introduction to simulation-based education, along with theoretical and real-world examples of how simulation may be integrated into a blended learning curriculum. Examples of blended learning in Neonatal-Perinatal Medicine, specifically within the Neonatal Resuscitation Program, procedural skills training, and the National Neonatology Curriculum, are reviewed.
