Complementing Classroom Teaching with Hybrid Experiential Learning

The world is now irreversibly hybrid. Businesses, civic organizations, entertainment venues, and social relationships that used to be primarily face-to-face are now often or even predominantly online. From now on, when students leave the shelter of classrooms to interact with the world beyond schooling, they must have skills for adept hybrid performance both face-to-face and across distance. Teacher education programs should help pre-service and in-service teachers build on what they know about effective face-to-face teaching to adapt instructional strategies that work in classrooms to those that are suited for remote interaction.
