Perham High School mixing up the way classes are taught

Posted by Fergus Forum On March - 12 - 2010

Juniors and Seniors at Perham High School will be able to combine in-classroom instruction with an online mix starting next year. Its something that the school is calling “Hybrid” classes.

These classes bring the best of both worlds to the table when it comes to education, which will advocate independent learning and cut classroom instruction time.

Instructors will be revamping their traditional lectures, and produce new online content which will include various activities, such as case studies, tutorials, simulations, and group collaborations.

A typical hybrid class will meet in a classroom three days a week, and on the other two days, students will have the option to work online at home or come into school and complete the online activities.

Initially, Perham High School will only allow first and fifth hour classes to offer a hybrid option.
