Blended/Hybrid Learning in the Context of School Reopening is the second webinar in an Asia-Pacific Learning and Education 2030+ Webinar Series on Learning Recovery Beyond COVID-19.
This Webinar responds to the current priority of countries in Asia-Pacific to initiate and establish hybrid/blended learning systems both in the context of full or partial school closures, as well as to support learning recovery efforts post-school reopening.
Its purpose is to provide technical guidance to Ministries of Education and their partners on current global and regional thinking and emerging practices around hybrid/blended learning approaches. The webinar will introduce the concept of hybrid and blended learning models, share expert perspectives on effective strategies for establishing hybrid/blended models according to current questions from countries and provide countries the opportunity to exchange their experiences with hybrid/blended learning.
Key questions the webinar will address:
- What is the concept of hybrid/blended learning?
- What are some key considerations in planning hybrid/blended learning approaches in the context of school reopening and future closures, if any?
- What strategies can be adopted and adapted for using COVID-19 digital learning platforms to support learning recovery in the medium-term post-school reopening?
- What digital tools and resources are available to support countries?
- What models and strategies have been tried by countries in the region? What lessons are learned thus far?
Target Audience:
- Ministries of Education and other relevant government bodies from countries in Asia-Pacific and their partners (Asia Pacific focus, but open meeting)
