This book allows readers to explore the inner workings of a hybrid class from the perspectives
of two instructors with different pedagogical orientations from the students' perspectives
including learning outcomes and immediately practical teaching tools. The authors meet the
challenge of how to preserve pedagogy and content while making good use of digital tools and
online opportunities. Language teachers at the secondary and postsecondary level will enjoy the
authors' first person narrative of the creation of a pedagogically-sound hybrid course
practical examples from their courses as well as student learning outcomes and feedback on the
various technological activities. During a year-long study of the authors' hybrid courses they
used a mixed methods design to answers these questions: How does a hybrid course change our
teaching? How does the hybrid course affect student learning experiences? What technology-based
activities are most effective in our hybrid course?.
