Abstract: Online teaching! Blended learning! Asynchronous classes! Blended-synchronous! Hyflex! Over the last year, Covid-19 has provided the opportunity for faculty to explore a multitude of ways to create classrooms. Both students and faculty struggled incessantly to adapt to the new normal and make the best use of their present situations. Frustrations led to innovation and amidst this commotion, we all witnessed the reincarnation of the ‘Hyflex model of teaching’ at various institutions all across the nation. This session will provide faculty and students alike to share their best practices and lessons learned from the last year of online learning.
