There is very little research into blended learning integrating online with face-to-face instruction. This paper presents some experiences in developing and implementing blended learning in several courses of an information systems (IS) program at a state university since 2004. The primary purpose of introducing elements of blended learning in our university was to reach a wider student community. Some reflections and lessons learned are presented on methodological, technology issues, as well as faculty and societal issues, followed by suggestions for further work.

Keywords: blended learning, on-line education, IS education, continuing education
