Three faculty members from the Arkansas Tech University College of Education and Health gave a presentation about teaching in a mixed modality environment at a national education conference June 7-9 in New Orleans, La.
Dr. Dana Tribble, Dr. Aubrey Holt and Krystal Shipp offered a session entitled “Hyflex Courses: The Best Practices from Development to Implementation” during the 2024 Teaching Professor Conference.
“Life circumstances are changing more frequently than ever before for students as well as faculty,” wrote the trio in the abstract for their presentation. “Hyflex courses offer flexibility for everyone to engage with the course in a manner that works best for them. Best practices will include approaches to undergraduate and graduate courses developed and implemented for hyflex delivery including designing assignments for three modalities (face-to-face, synchronous and asynchronous), how to get students to engage across modalities and how to adapt to changing needs during implementation.”
