What is a hybrid course?

“Hybrid” courses combine face-to-face classroom instruction with online learning. A portion of a hybrid course is scheduled on-campus, with the remainder completed online. CWI hybrid courses offer students the best of both worlds with regularly scheduled faculty interaction and the flexibility of online learning.

Benefits of a hybrid course include:

• It combines the benefits of both face-to-face and online instruction.
  • Regularly scheduled faculty/student interaction.
  • Hybrid courses meet less frequently on campus than traditional classes, providing flexible course offerings for students who have less availability to participate in traditional face-to-face classes.
• It offers the flexibility of completing assignments through Blackboard (a computer-based learning platform).
• Individualized instructor assistance is available for students.
