Hybrid Learning Design Toolkit

The Hybrid Learning Design Toolkit is a research-informed design project created by learning experience designers to support educators in developing effective hybrid learning experiences. The Toolkit is a conceptual synthesis that translates a wide-range of research findings and theoretical frameworks into practical, actionable tools and handy resources.

Three Dimension, One Holistic Framework

The toolkit is structured around three interconnected dimensions, each offering a modular suite of tools, ready-to-use templates, planning canvases, and strategy cards that work both independently and in combination. Start with a single tool to address an immediate challenge, or integrate multiple resources across dimensions to create comprehensive hybrid learning experiences—the flexible design adapts to your needs and readiness level.

Who is this for?

This toolkit is designed for educators and learning designers who are actively teaching or designing hybrid learning experiences. Whether you’re an individual instructor adapting your courses, a learning designer supporting faculty, or part of a teaching team exploring hybrid approaches, the tools provide practical resources for immediate implementation. No prior expertise in hybrid teaching is required—the implementation levels meet you where you are.

The toolkit works across all disciplines and subject areas—from laboratory sciences to discussion-based seminars, from skills-based training to theoretical explorations. It’s equally relevant whether you teach mathematics, literature, engineering, arts, or professional practice courses.
