A course made up of a combination of face-to-face and online elements is known as what?

• A. Blended learning
• B. Flipped classroom
• C. Hybrid module
• D. Digital course

Answer: (A)

Blended learning combines face-to-face instruction with online activities, giving learners the benefits of real-time interaction and flexible digital resources. It’s the overall approach of mixing in-person and online elements to support learning.

A flipped classroom is a specific way to implement blended learning where students first encounter new material online and class time is used for applying concepts, rather than the general term for any mix of delivery.

A hybrid module and a digital course are less precise in this context: hybrid can be used differently in various settings, and a digital course typically implies online-only content without in-person components.

So, the term that best describes a course with both face-to-face and online elements is blended learning.
