N2 - Higher education institutions are increasingly utilising the affordances of the Internet to offer courses online. Developing and teaching online courses require planning, teaching skills and a particular technology skillset that are different from those used in traditional on-campus teaching practice. This paper explores the development of a new hybrid learning framework designed to assist lecturers in the planning and teaching of their subjects, and in engaging students with the course material online. The Confluence of Learning model has been developed using a behavioural and constructivist approach and is used in conjunction with a developmental style guide and an assistive web-application. The paper explores elements of each as well as the pilot implementation of the model within one university faculty.
