'Sometimes a phrase sticks in my skull. And not always in a good way. Last week I read an article in CLO Magazine about blended learning: ”What’s Old is New Again: CLOs aren’t as fond of blended learning as we think” by Giuseppe Auricchio, that had a ring dinger of a quote that I’ll get to in a second. So why the resistance to blended learning at the senior level?

At Christmas this past year, a friend sent me a box of rubber ducks. All colors. 50 of them. In my twenties I even had a hair cut that my friends joked looked a little bit like a duck''s bottom. Like any good meme, these ducks have a life of their own, and I no longer have any control over them.
