Hybrid | Waubonsee Community College

About

Hybrid classes are a combination of instruction and student participation occurring in-person in a traditional classroom on one of Waubonsee's four campuses and also occurs asynchronously or synchronously online. Required in-person and synchronous online sessions occur on scheduled days. In general, at least ⅓ of a course is delivered asynchronously or synchronously online.

*In event of emergency closing (due to health concerns, safety concerns, and/or directives from a governing body), in-person sessions may be replaced with synchronous online sessions through Zoom.

Most hybrid courses are split 50:50 between in-person meetings and asynchronous or synchronous online.

Hybrid Type	In-Person %	Asynchronous or Synchronous Online %	Example
Even Split	50%	50%	Example A: Students attend class in-person once a week and also complete work asynchronously online each week. Example B: All in-person meetings are scheduled during the first eight weeks. The second eight weeks are delivered completely asynchronously or synchronously online.

Advanced Hybrid models

Please check with your division office for discipline specific hybrid models.

Hybrid Type	In-Person %	Asynchronous or Synchronous Online %	Example
In-Person Focus	66%	33%	Example: The first ten weeks are delivered in-person. The balance is delivered completely asynchronously and/or synchronously online.
Asynchronous Online Focus	33%	66%	Example A: Lecture content is delivered completely asynchronously online. Reviews and tests are delivered in-person every other week. Example B: Courses meet every other Monday in-person. The balance of the course is delivered asynchronously online. Example C: All didactic content is taught asynchronously online and skill labs are in-person on Saturdays.
Partial F2F	40%	60%	Example: Students are in-person once every other week for labs and tests; the rest of the content is delivered asynchronously and/or synchronously online.
Synchronous Online Split	50%	50%	Example: Students attend class in-person once a week and attend class synchronously online once a week.

Safety

Each classroom is thoroughly cleaned, sanitized, and equipped with sanitization products. Students and faculty have access to products to manage the environment. Classrooms, tables, and seating are scheduled and arranged to promote physical distancing, and rooms are not scheduled with back-to-back classes when possible, all of which ensure a safe and sanitized learning environment. Please ensure that classroom arrangements are not modified.
