Workshop for Teachers - THE HYBRID ZONE OF TEACHING AND LEARNING

The Iscte Transversal Skills Laboratory and the Iscte Pedagogical Council came together to organise a training entitled: THE HYBRID ZONE OF TEACHING AND LEARNING.

Teaching and learning in a hybrid modality gained greater prominence during the pandemic; however, it is a concept and practice at least a decade old. There are several terminologies and practices of a hybrid pedagogical approach, including mixed teaching, blended learning, flipped learning, flexible teaching, flexible learning, and technology-based learning, among others. 

Hybrid learning is essentially a way of rethinking and redesigning the relationship between teaching and learning, rather than simply the transmission and availability of content through technological means.  

In a hybrid pedagogical design, part of the time (usually face-to-face) is dedicated to active and laboratory, collaborative and meaningful learning activities and deepening and consolidation of knowledge; another part of the time (usually non-face-to-face) is dedicated to expository and demonstrative activities (recorded or in real time), reading resources, viewing of demonstrations or practical components supported by digital tools. 

The purpose of this training is to differentiate and characterise the various terminologies and practices inherent to a hybrid pedagogical model, defining the main objectives: 

• to characterise the concept of hybrid teaching in higher education;
• know pedagogical designs based on hybrid models; 
• Identify learning practices/activities in hybrid learning contexts; 
• know assessment processes for hybrid learning contexts.

Duration: approx. 90 minutes 

Vacancies: 30 participants
