Large enrolment of students in most African universities and its attendant problems have led to falling level of the quality of the university graduate in the area of Communication Skills, a skill that most employers value most in a university graduate seeking an employment. Using formative experiment (Reinking & Watkins, 2000), this thesis explored the use of a blended learning environment named ABLECAT, to improve the students’ knowledge and skills in the course. The result was the development of a local theory through the use of ‘motivate, explore, apply and review/assess’ design of the blended learning environment, for both the process of learning and means designed to support the learning of Communication Skills. |
