\u201cA Hybrid-Flexible (HyFlex) course design enables a flexible participation policy for students, whereby students may choose to attend face-to-face synchronous class sessions in-person (typically in a traditional classroom) or complete course learning activities online without physically attending class. Some HyFlex courses allow for further choice in the online delivery mode, allowing both synchronous and asynchronous participation.\u201d (Beatty, 2019)<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Fundamental Values in Hybrid-Flexible Design<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Learner Choice:<\/span><\/b> Provide meaningful alternative participation modes and enable students to choose between participation modes daily, weekly, or topically.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Equivalency:<\/span><\/b> Provide learning activities in all participation modes which lead to equivalent learning outcomes.<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. Reusability:<\/span><\/b> Utilize artifacts from learning activities in each participation mode as \u201clearning objects\u2019 for all students.<\/span><\/li>\n
  4. Accessibility:<\/span><\/b> Equip students with technology skills and equitable access to all participation modes.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
