Unveiling Trends, Terminology, and Teaching Competencies of Blended Courses in Higher Education

This dissertation has been written in a three-article journal-ready format and centers on competencies for blended teaching in higher education. I use the PRISMA process and thematic coding to analyze 34 articles from 2002 to 2022, highlighting strategic combination, learner-centered approaches, and additional support. I also use the Google Search API and content analysis to suggest that blended, digital, and flexible may be post-secondary institutions' most frequently used terminology to describe contexts incorporating online and in-person components. I also gather qualitative data from interviews with faculty to highlight the context and nuances surrounding blended teaching competencies, including creative innovation, technology skills, flexibility, strategic planning, and engagement creation. This work aims to clarify the trending terms, contexts, and nuances of teaching competencies for blended courses in higher education. It may help researchers and practitioners understand these concepts as evolving from specialized blended teaching competencies to potentially becoming more mainstream teaching competencies.
