A computer-based matching system for educators based on specific criteria related to blended instructional practices. The system promotes collaboration around blended learning initiatives and the use of digital/online resources to support instruction. Subscribers wishing to be matched with other educators may complete a questionnaire about courses that they have taught or are currently teaching. Matching criteria may include course information and the current use of digital resources and technology. The information from the questionnaire will be entered into a database. The subscriber will be able to view system-generated matches, or other educators who have implemented/are implementing the same or similar type of instructional model with the same or similar restraints, such as the number of devices (computers/tablets) available in the classroom and the current instructional delivery model. Once subscribers have been matched, they will be able to view their matches' profiles, invite matches to of their Professional Learning Community, and message matches directly through the system.
