Abstract

Blended learning, which integrates traditional face-to-face instruction with digital technologies, has emerged as a transformative approach in modern education. This model leverages Information and Communication Technology (ICT) to enhance accessibility, flexibility, and engagement in learning environments. The application of ICT in blended learning has proven particularly effective in addressing educational disparities caused by geographical, economic, and infrastructural constraints. By enabling personalized learning pathways, facilitating asynchronous and synchronous interactions, and supporting diverse content delivery methods, blended learning fosters inclusivity and learner autonomy. Moreover, ICT tools such as Learning Management Systems (LMS), virtual classrooms, and mobile applications have broadened the reach and scope of education. However, challenges such as the digital divide, limited teacher training, and inconsistent policy implementation remain significant barriers. This paper examines the various models of blended learning, evaluates their role in bridging educational gaps, and discusses the strategic integration of ICT to promote equitable and quality education. The findings underscore the potential of blended learning as a sustainable solution for global education systems striving toward inclusiveness and digital transformation.
