"Hybrid" is the name commonly used to describe courses that combine traditional face-to-face classroom instruction with online computer-based learning. ACC Hybrid courses combine the best of two worlds, engaging students in the active, autonomous learning process of an Internet-based PCM course, while also providing regularly scheduled interaction with the course instructor.
At Austin Community College, there are two types of Hybrid formats: HYD — Hybrids offered through Distance Learning, and HYC — Classroom Hybrids.
