Abstract

The ever-changing behavioural patterns of the learners serve to be a challenging aspect in the instructional models followed in higher education institutions all over the world. This mandates every educational institution to explore a better instructional model to make the teaching-learning process effective and meaningful in order to ensure better engagement of Gen Z learners. There are various factors like the development of technology, enforcement of restrictions because of the Covid-19 pandemic situation, change in learning style and attitude of the learners, wanting of the new generation to explore the unknown possibilities and much more affect the effectiveness of learning in the present scenario. This subsequently necessitates integration of technology to the fullest possible extent in the teaching model adopted to ensure efficacy. Hybrid Model of Teaching-Learning (HMTL), which is a combination of online mode of learning and physical face-to-face mode of learning, serves to be the effective pedagogical model to cater the needs of the present generation learners. The present experimental study proves that HMTL strives to overcome the restrictions in both online and physical mode of learnings and provides a conducive learning environment.
