What is a hybrid class?

Hybrid Class n : an educational setting with both online and in-classroom components. Students enrolled in hybrid courses go through much of the lecture material and content online and then meet on campus for exams, labs, and further discussion.

Hybrid classes provide learners with the convenience and flexibility of online education   and the social interaction and face-to-face assistance common in traditional learning.

Consider a hybrid class if your schedule is tight and you need the physical support of classmates and instructors. However, if you’re an independent learner or your schedule is just too busy, completely online classes might be a better fit.
