Pre-Arrival Guide: Prepare for Hybrid Model
What is the Hybrid Model?
Courses meet both in-person and through virtual delivery with 51% or more of the instruction occurring through distance ed, either asynchronously or synchronously. Asynchronous content delivery takes place virtually without any scheduled meetings, whereas synchronous content delivery takes place virtually with scheduled meetings. The hybrid format is used when some of the course delivery requires hands-on or participatory learning scenarios in a physical format.
Considerations:
- Students will attend all scheduled in-person or synchronous meetings.
- For the distance ed portion of the class, students will need access to a computer with reliable Internet connectivity.
- If applicable, students will need to become familiar with synchronous meeting etiquette.
- For the in-person portion of the class, students should consider whether they are comfortable sharing a classroom space with other participants, wearing a mask and interacting with social distancing measures in place.
- Office hours will most likely be held virtually due to social distancing requirements.
