Adapting to Hybrid Learning
Physical education teachers are navigating the complexities of hybrid learning by implementing varied schedules for students. One approach involves dividing classes into cohorts that attend in-person sessions on different days, allowing teachers to alternate between virtual and face-to-face teachings. This strategy helps teachers maintain a consistent interaction with their students while dealing with the challenges of scheduling and managing classroom activities. Despite the difficulties, this structure gives educators the ability to see students regularly and adapt to their unique classroom needs.
