A lot of advice alumni give to current or future college students revolve around networking, gaining experience, choosing classes, setting yourself up for a job, and other very helpful, but (honestly) generic responses.
Humans like it invent, improve, experiment, and create. This is why people breed certain dogs together, create fusion foods, combine luxury and heavy-duty vehicles, and integrate foreign words into their native languages. Always one the road of progression, schools do what they can to enhance the learning experience.
Traditional classrooms allow for face-to-face interaction, social learning, and controlled time and space (which help students focus). Online classes allow for personal exploration, interactive media, and broadened spectrums. By combining the two, hybrid classes try to access the strengths of both forms of learning.
So, now your computer has crashed. What do you do next? At this point, it is a good idea to look at the various resources provided by your university. Most universities offer many technological resources for their students, and want to help them to succeed, so check it out, and don't be afraid to ask good questions.
But I think there is more to college than "getting head." Students exposed to only the kind of advice given above, tend to think of college as a stepping stone. Truth is, if everything you do in college is about strategy, you'll miss out on a lot of happiness and enjoyment of life. Don't get so focused on "getting head" that you forget to live now. Find the balance between preparing for the future and living life now.
Another clear benefit of hybrid classes is their convenience. As students are able to access all important information online (at anytime from anywhere) their control over schoolwork increases and miscommunications/mistakes tend to decrease. Working from home can also be helpful for many students that have families or live far from campus.
Take as many enjoyable classes as your schedule allows. If your major includes electives, chose the ones that spark your interest, not just ones you hear are easy or scheduled most conveniently. If you have a couple credit hours take any class that seems interesting to you, no matter how relevant to your primary major or not. Learn a language, take an art class, take a music class, take an astronomy class, or join a club. Indulge your childhood dreams and have a little fun.
All classes from Business Administration to Event Planning to Programming can benefit from the unique advantages of the hybrid system. Hybrid classes allow the best of both in-class and online learning to work together for a well-rounded, impactful education!
