HyFlex Training
HyFlex refers to a relatively new modality that offers students the flexibility to learn on campus or online each week.
Here is the official LPC definition of HyFlex, as adopted by the DE Committee in January 2022:
A HyFlex (Hybrid Flexible) course allows students the choice of attending class on campus or online. Online modalities may include synchronous online, and/or asynchronous online instruction.
If interested in teaching courses in the HyFlex modality, email Kat King, Instructional Technology Coordinator, to sign up to complete our self-paced HyFlex Training course.
The training was adapted, with permission, from workshops that Dr. Brian Beatty conducted for LPC faculty in late 2021. Dr. Beatty is an Associate Professor of Instructional Technologies in the Department of Equity, Leadership Studies and Instructional Technologies at San Francisco State University. He is one of the founders and leading practitioners of the HyFlex teaching method.
The HyFlex course includes 4 modules:
- Module 1: Introduction to HyFlex and Getting Started
- Module 2: Designing your HyFlex Course
- Module 3: Engaging your HyFlex Students
- Module 4: Implementing HyFlex in your Course
Faculty who complete the course will be added to our list of qualified instructors eligible to teach in the HyFlex modality.
