Blended learning offers many benefits to students, but course instructors who are interested in developing a blended course may face many challenges. These often include the lack of time, familiarity with digital tools, pedagogical content knowledge, and, most importantly, financial support. At our institution, a new Supported Course Redesign program (SCoRe) aims to remove many of those barriers. SCoRe allows faculty members, who are selected through a competitive process, to transform their traditional face-to-face, high-enrollment courses into a blended offering. We will explore how SCoRe catalyzed, over a one-year period, the transformation of our 2200-student, second-semester chemistry course into a blended offering, and provide an overview of the features of our redesigned course.<br/>
