QCC receives technology grant to support hybrid teaching model 

https://www.qcc.edu/

Last week, New England Council member, Quinsigamond Community College (QCC), received a $975,000 federal grant to purchase new technology that will improve the hybrid learning experience for its students. This technology, called the HyFlex (hybrid flex) Technology System, will enable instructors to “teach students who are taking a course in-person at the same time as students who are taking the course in a remote format,” and serves to “bridge the gap between in-person and online education,” according to a press release from QCC. The grant provides enough funding to offer HyFlex technology in 25 classrooms.

In a written statement by Luis Pedraja, President of QCC, Pedraja asserted, “This technology will be a game-changer for so many students who otherwise would be unable to attend in-person classes.” She stated that this funding will “help facilitate more students to realize a better future through higher education.”

The New England Council commends Quinsigamond Community College for its commitment to improving hybrid learning for its students.
