For several years, researchers associated with
the Centre for Distributed Learning have beencomparing results in hybrid sections against
both traditional (face-to-face) and web-based-
only sections.
The initial comparatives outcomes are dramatic
and consistent. Students enrolled in hybrid
courses have the highest success rate. These
rates are higher than face-to-face courses and
higher than web-based-only courses.

One disadvantages of online learning is that
contact between teacher and students andamong students is limited to internet
communication, and can seem an isolating
experience. A new kind of class, the hybrid class,is changing that. In a Hybrid class, computer-
based learning is combined with on-site class
time, where students meet with the instructorand each other for lectures, collaboration
projects and more.
