Planning and Implementing

Before deciding what focus to take (and there will be choices of course!), we ask you to evaluate your context and how HyFlex that approach might already be.

There are two continuums: hybrid and flexible. Read the following descriptors to determine your and your institution’s position on each scale.

Hybrid Continuum Flexible Continuum

When planning and implementing HyFlex learning, the challenge is how to leverage the unique opportunities provided by educational technology, including Web 2.0 online technologies, rather than to replicate face-to-face learning experiences.

Web 2.0 refers to online tools that are user-generated, open, and often free, such as a blog, a wiki or website, X, and media creation tools. Use of Web 2.0 tools escalated as of about 2005, affording user creation in addition to receiving information.
