MUMBAI: Mention the word hybrid and the first thing that's liable to come to most people's minds is a vehicle that runs on a combination of gas and electricity. However, for those in higher education, the word hybrid brings to mind something entirely different - the concept of hybrid instruction.
What then is this new concept entitled: Hybrid Learning?
"Hybrid" or "Blended" are names commonly used to describe courses in which some traditional face-to-face "seat time" has been replaced by online learning activities. The purpose of a hybrid course is to take advantage of the best features of both face-to-face and online learning. A hybrid course is designed to integrate face-to-face and online activities so that they reinforce, complement and elaborate one another, instead of treating the online component as an add-on or duplicate of what is taught in the classroom.
