Exploring Educational Technology in Hybrid Learning Environments: A Study on Usage, Support, and Challenges in a Swedish University / Utforska Utbildningsteknik i Hybrida Inlärningsmiljöer:En Studie om Användning, Stöd och Utmaningar, vid ett Svenskt Universitet

Palan, Sona January 2024 (has links)
To use technology creatively in classroom the instructor needs to have knowledge and skills to use digital technology. Teacher education program including training and workshop in using education technology by university is essential, to improve digital skills of a teacher, which helps to share knowledge, use tools that build collaboration and be a guide for students. Technology changes rapidly where newer education technology replaces the older ones. So, a teacher faces challenges in using technology and need support in using it better. Hence it is important for teachers to update their skills in using technology. As hybrid learning environment became common after pandemic situation, teachers’ preference changed from classroom teaching to a mix of online and classroom forms of teaching. This research is about studying the use of, difficulties and support needed in using education technology in hybrid environment in a Swedish university. The instrument of data collection in this study is a questionnaire sent to the respondents via email. The research findings show that the teachers in a Swedish university, teaching in hybrid learning environment have good digital skills for teaching. However, the results also show the problems faced, support needed to improve digital skills and preference to teach in hybrid environment over online only or classroom only environment. The aim of this study is to investigate from constructivist approach a) what education technology does a teacher use for teaching in hybrid learning environment in a Swedish university b) what support does the teacher need for teaching in hybrid learning environment and c) what are the issues faced by teachers in using education technology in hybrid learning environment. This research shows what education technology is used by teachers for teaching in hybrid teaching and learning environment in a Swedish university, their skills in using technology, what support is needed and what problems are faced in using technology for teaching. The findings of the study conclude that while educational technology offers significant benefits for hybrid teaching, ongoing support and addressing technical challenges are crucial for maximizing its effectiveness.
