New Delhi: The Indian education system has witnessed massive disruption due to the onset and ongoing impact of the pandemic. With the resulting rise in online learning, how educators teach in the classroom has also changed. The HP India Future of Learning Study 2022 found that 98% parents and 99% of teachers surveyed attribute learning continuity to online education. In fact, an overwhelming 91% of students believe that online learning supplements traditional classroom learning.

 

The study found an overwhelming preference for the Hybrid learning model across students, teachers and parents and they want to continue with online learning in some form even after traditional classrooms resume.

  • Better understanding through a blended online and classroom learning approach, more personal free time to pursue hobbies and a longer memory retention emerged as the key reasons students prefer hybrid learning.

 

Hybrid learning can reduce learning disruptions due to extreme weather conditions or other law & order issues that hinder movement of people

Alarming pollution levels, heat waves, floods, and many other natural calamities have often resulted in unscheduled shutdowns of the schools. However, with the adoption of hybrid learning, learning can continue uninterrupted.

  • All respondents across students, teachers and parents agree that hybrid model ensures continuous learning during such extreme weather conditions and other circumstances

 

Ketan Patel, MD, HP India said,Technology has emerged as a savior in these challenging times and this influence is evident in learning as well. The hybrid learning model blends the benefits of online resources and in-person interactions of a traditional classroom setting to enhance the quality of learning. The remarkable shift towards digital learning has enriched student-teacher interactions while also ensuring the safety and comfort of everyone involved. During this transition, students and teachers have also discovered better work-life balance, increased efficiency, and more insight-based instruction delivery. Backed by The HP India Future of Learning Study 2022, I believe that digital learning is going to play a pivotal role in creating a more efficient and effective hybrid learning model.”

Despite the early challenges of online learning, students find immense benefit in the autonomy and flexibility it offers. Online learning allowing students to study at a convenient pace has been the key highlight across students (61%), parents (65%) and teachers (81%).

  • Students prefer hybrid learning because they find it easier to revise their work, and helps them comprehend material more easily and deeply. They can also catch up on missed classes by watching recordings.

Limited social interaction has been one of the most salient impacts of Covid-19. Students are keen to go back to school to interact with their peers and participate in sports and co-curricular activities.

 

  • Student respondents believe that they could make more friends during classroom learning and that the physical presence of teachers around them enabled them to learn better. They also feel that their interaction with other classmates and participation in sports has become very limited.
