Abstract
The purpose of the study was to analyze if third-level education in Dublin was ready to adopt
hybrid learning based on the student’s perspective. The study was supported by secondary
research such as Analysis books, Reports, government documents, National bodies’
documents, Journals, and previous studies. And primary research was done by interpretivism
approach, inductive Research using the mixed method, quantitative through the responses of
620 surveys, and qualitative through 3 interviews.
Interesting results were found in the primary research such as Teachers required constant
training not just in technology but also in pedagogical and communication. Students considered
that teachers were using traditional tools to deliver class instead of taking advantage of the
technology and those factors affected their engagement with their learnings. Also, students
didn’t consider the interaction with teachers and college staff as a factor to be engaged with
their studies. And that they felt more comfortable asking questions during class rather than
technological tools. From the student’s perspective, F2F classes were the best option for them,
followed by hybrid. It was concluded that there was still a long way to go to achieve better
results and adopt Hybrid learning in Third level education
