HyFlex

At TU Dublin, the definition of a HyFlex module is:

A HyFlex module is offered in-person on-campus; synchronously online; and asynchronously online, at the same time. The students are usually* free to choose their modality from week to week or topic to topic, therefore a student can choose to be an in-person on-campus learner only, a synchronous remote learner only, an asynchronous remote learner only, or a flexible learner who exercises a degree of choice of modality each week or topic. All teaching, learning and assessment experiences are designed and delivered in an equitable manner.

*There may be individual module requirements to attend mandated practical sessions as appropriate.

It is also stipulated that academic staff will provide clear communications to students on this mode of delivery in advance of the module start date. This mode of delivery will be adhered to consistently over the duration of the module. No ad hoc changes to the mode of delivery will be made mid-module (notwithstanding the need for flexibility to adapt to unforeseen circumstances).
