HyFlex and Equity
The HyFlex course design model emphasizes student choice for how and when they interact with, and receive instruction, and is built upon four fundamental values: Learner Choice, Equivalency, Reusability, and Accessibility, each with a corresponding guiding, or universal, principle for designers and instructors to follow (Beatty, 2019).
Learner Choice
With multiple, alternative participation modes of both online and in-person available, students choose how they will participate, daily, weekly, or topically.
Equivalency
Learning activities are provided in all participation modalities to achieve equivalent learning outcomes.
Reusability
Artifacts from learning activities in each participation mode serve as learning objects for all students and can be accessed by all students regardless of delivery mode.
Accessibility
Students are equipped with technology skills as well as equitable access to all participation modes. Universal accessibility design principles are embedded intentionally and by default.
