Hybrid Learning

The term "hybrid learning" (a term we use interchangeably with the term "blended learning") names a mode of learning that combines traditional, face-to-face class time and online course work. Specifically, students enroll in courses (e.g. on the quarter or semester schedule) where 30% to 79% of the course work takes place online and replaces time that would have been spent in a face-to-face classroom (UCF Blended Learning Toolkit).
