Hybrid learning

Library management

Overview

Teachers can bridge the gap between online learning and learning physically in school with the right tools in hand.
“Hybrid learning is a delivery system that utilizes the best of online learning tools and resources to shift the instructional model toward student-centered, highly personalized approaches. Hybrid learning makes it easier for teachers to be empowered with technologies that allow personalization.” Hybrid learning is a teaching method where teachers instruct in-person and remote students at the same time. In hybrid learning models, asynchronous teaching methods can be used to supplement synchronous, face-to-face instruction. Hybrid learning comes with its pros, including increased interaction with peers and instructors, greater involvement in a course, more flexible scheduling and an interactive learning environment.

Role of Technology

Hybrid learning is here to stay. It is upto us as education technologists to design learning environments that combine the best of both the in-person learning environment and the online learning space.  Below are some points for consideration that will help make the hybrid learning model a successful one:

  • To keep track of where students are slackening and to make the teaching-learning process more interactive
  • Taking steps to overcome the ‘Digital Divide’ that may pose as a significant barrier for equality in remote instruction
  • Course Design and Lesson Plan – The teachers will need to structure their lessons differently to make it more focussed and intentional as class time will be limited and teaching will have to be more purposeful.
  • Parents and guardians become very important stakeholders in a child’s learning to ensure that the child is completing the work that is assigned to her
  • Role of Teachers as ‘mentors’ – Teachers will be required to regularly engage and motivate students so as to help them navigate the unique challenges brought upon them in wake of the unprecedented pandemic.

Benefits of Hybrid learning

A flexible learning experience

Many schools transition to hybrid learning for flexibility: a flexible learning schedule, flexibility in teaching modes, flexibility in how students engage with their learning materials, and flexibility in collaboration and communication between peers and their instructor. For students who aren't able to attend classes in-person, the hybrid learning environment allows them to learn remotely from home.

The freedom of independent academic exploration.

Online learning comes with many freedoms. Those students who excel at self-management and independent learning will thrive under these freedoms: the freedom to learn from the location of their choosing, the freedom to revisit materials any number of times at any pace, and the freedom to develop an in-depth asynchronous discourse with your peers.

Engage students in multimodal learning

Students can participate in variety of learning modalities, groupings, and other activities are vital not only for engagement but also for learning. It’s important to remember the other modalities you have at your fingertips, which can be used to build an enriching and exciting daylong or hourlong learning experience where students can engage as a whole group, followed by virtual breakout groups.

Engaging parents in the learning conversation

Online learning resources for parents

In a hybrid learning model, usable and interactive online learning resources for parents will take on an added importance. It may be as simple as a half-termly homework schedule; however, parents will likely benefit from resources that help them help their children with distance learning.

Minimise in-person contact

In a hybrid model, schools will need to consider what is essential to be done in person with parents. Given the work of maintaining in person and distance learning, schools should focus on in person parent interaction on high benefit activities (IEP meetings or sessions to support parents with at home learning).

Challenges of Hybrid Learning

  • It is not possible to simply take the traditional model and try to fit it into the online learning framework.
  • Task of teachers to regularly engage and motivate students

  • Students will need to take on more responsibility for their learning.

  • Online temptations can distract students easily.

  • A typical hybrid course emphasizes volunteering, working with groups online, and taking initiative more than in a traditional face-to-face course.
  • Hybrid learning with respect to distance courses is questioned in terms of social
    presence or the degree of interactive salience between interpersonal relationships.
