Hybrid emerges as the most preferred learning model – Study

The Indian education system has witnessed massive disruption due to the onset and ongoing impact of the pandemic. With the resulting rise in online learning, how educators teach in the classroom has also changed.

The HP India Future of Learning Study 2022 found that 98% parents and 99% of teachers surveyed attribute learning continuity to online education. In fact, an overwhelming 91% of students believe that online learning supplements traditional classroom learning.

The study found an overwhelming preference for the Hybrid learning model across students, teachers and parents and they want to continue with online learning in some form even after traditional classrooms resume.

Hybrid learning can reduce learning disruptions due to extreme weather conditions or other law & order issues that hinder the movement of people.

Alarming pollution levels, heat waves, floods, and many other natural calamities have often resulted in unscheduled shutdowns of the schools. However, with the adoption of hybrid learning, learning can continue uninterrupted.
