Evaluation of the Perceptions of University Students and Teachers Regarding Hybrid Teaching Methodology in Higher Education

Abstract

This study aims to investigate hybrid teaching methodology from the point of view of students and faculty members at the university level. Hybrid education, which integrates online and in-person learning, has been more popular in recent years due to the inherent advantage that it offers a more flexible and diverse learning experience with the flexibility to withstand unforeseen contingencies. To research the perspectives of both students and teachers about the efficacy, difficulties, and impacts of hybrid teaching on the results of an educational experience, this study aims to investigate the perspectives of both groups. To collect information, questionnaires were sent to two hundred students and fifty professors enrolled in a wide range of academic programs. In order to discover perspectives and recurring themes that are widespread throughout the investigation, the study carries out quantitative analysis. According to the results, hybrid teaching is generally held in very high esteem, even though the assessments vary substantially based on characteristics such as familiarity with technology and years of experience in the teaching profession. The consequences are being discussed in relation to educational institutions such as colleges and universities, with special emphasis on the requirement of providing customized assistance.
