Planning Your HyFlex Environment

Take this opportunity to map out a plan for HyFlex implementation.

Consider previous information and discussions around HyFlex learning and teaching and choose what works for you right now in your context and where it might take you in the future. There is no template to follow, you are at liberty to use this opportunity to create something bespoke and useful.

Where you go with this is completely open; however, for those who need some scaffolding, here are some initial ideas of what you could produce:

• A whitepaper for your institution describing the attributes of HyFlex and recommendations for further discussion and planning
• A chart/diagram sharing barriers/enablers evident within your institution and your recommendations for overcoming them to provide HyFlex. Perhaps choose those barriers/enablers that are relevant:
  • Institutional
  • Technology
  • Personal (staff, student)
• A graphic sharing your interpretation of HyFlex to be used as a discussion point in a future workshop, for example:
• An audio file of a conversation or monologue sharing ideas, questions, and thoughts about HyFlex
• A video sharing current HyFlex learning (footage, screencasts etc.)
• A design plan for creating (or converting) a course into HyFlex considering the three attributes:
  • Choice
  • Flat learning
  • Access
• A statement about the change process, including why and how to go HyFlex
• A review and recommendations for educational technology to support HyFlex learning

Once your HyFlex learning and teaching plan is complete, you might like to share it with a colleague(s) for feedback.
