3. What's the definition of
hybrid?
Hybrid is a teaching mode with some students
physically in the room and other students
participating remotely, via the internet. The goal is
to provide equity of experience to both groups.

4. What are your main concerns
about delivering hybrid sessions?

5. Feedback from staff
• Seeking improved participation from online students
• students seeing and hearing each other, feeling more connected to the session
• instructor having the Chat and Attendees panels within sight
• Reliability and ease of use is key to feeling confident
• being in control, minimal setup procedures
• using own laptop and other devices, sharing media resources
• Value of in-person support and how to deal with issues
• close support required for infrequent teachers
• orientation sessions and access to quick start / help resources

6. University definitions
• Capture and stream
• webcam and mic positioned close to the presenter
• also when using your own laptop in a teaching room
• unlikely to pick up the voices of in-class students
• need to turn camera around to view students
• Dual mode
• primary and secondary monitors
• front and rear display screens
• front and rear facing cameras
• ceiling microphones for whole room audio coverage
