Abstract

This paper highlights the blended learning methods and processes created and used by scholars during ancient Indian era when knowledge was available only to a selected section of society and was documented on leaves, cloth materials and rocks. It is observed that authors and scholars around the globe in recent past have suggested processes and methods that are quite like the ones introduced by gurus and pundits in ancient era. This paper analyses the components of blended learning used in ancient Indian era and attempts to introduce a distinctive model that bonds ancient Indian learning methods and processes with modern learning enablement tools like internet and computers, primarily used by the corporate sector for identification of expectation and perception gaps which can be further used for targeted learning and development programs. A quick survey with employees working in Indian ITES sector was conducted to generate insights.
