Abstract

Hybrid Flexible (HyFlex) learning is a teaching method that combines elements of hybrid and blended learning into a flexible course framework that allows students to attend classroom sessions, participate online, or do both. The study aimed to assess the level of content knowledge and readiness of the students and faculty members of the College of Education in Nueva Ecija University of Science and Technology, main campus, in HyFlex learning in terms of the learning environment, assessment procedures, and technicality. The researchers utilized a quantitative approach through a descriptive research design with questionnaire as the main instrument, which is composed of two parts. The first part is a content knowledge test, and the second part is a survey on readiness in HyFlex learning. The researchers selected two-hundred eighty-nine (289) students and twenty (20) faculty members as respondents of the study. The findings implied that most of the students and faculty members reveal a medium level of content knowledge regarding the learning environment. Moreover, while most of the students have a medium level of content knowledge in HyFlex learning in terms of the assessment procedures, the faculty members reveal a high level of content knowledge in the component. Additionally, most of the students and faculty members have a high level of content knowledge in terms of technicality. Also, findings suggest that the students and faculty members are moderately prepared in engaging in a HyFlex environment. In line with these results, several actions were proposed in order for the students and faculty to successfully engage in a HyFlex course.
