Is hybrid learning the wave of the future?

In the latest PT in Motion (November 2013) there's an article about hybrid learning which is being taught at the DPT program of Nova Southeastern University in Tampa, Florida.

In their program hybrid learning consists of the students learning their lessons online for 3 weeks and coming into the University for 4 days of "face-to-face"hands-on learning per month.

The professor interviewed for the article confessed that she didn't agree with this type of model when they began implementing it four years ago. Now  she finds it a more beneficial way of implementing education to their students.

This model is very similar to the On-Live classes that I have developed for Signature Allied Strategies.

Part of this model is having patients with dysfunctions that are appropriate for the class come to the Live event and the participants will treat them.

At my last class, I was thrilled to see the results that my students were achieving in these patients. To me it is a direct testament that they have absorbed the material.

There is no greater satisfaction as a teacher to know that your students have learned.
Not only does the therapist have exposure to the material before and during the class but they are able to go back and review the online lessons after the live event is over for an additional 30 days.

The teacher is available throughout the entire process to answer questions.

Experience it Hybrid learning for yourself

Our next On-Live event is Saturday November 23rd at in NYC. Only a few slots left
Targeted evaluation and Treatment of the Pelvis, Pelvic Floor and Coccyx

I have also decided to provide FREE additional On-Live components to our  Live Seminar:
Balance and Fall Prevention Course in Teaneck Nov. 22& 24th

I truly believe that this is an amazing model and will be implemented by more companies and educational universities in the future.
