How Much Time Does a Hybrid Course Take?

• The online portion of a hybrid courses requires the same number of "contact hours" as the face-to-face class time that it is replacing.

• A Hybrid course is NOT a condensed course.

What is the Goal of Teaching a Hybrid Course?

“The goal of a hybrid course is to join the best features of in-class teaching with best features of online learning to promote active independent learning and reduce class seat time.”
