" Participation in a hybrid course can be a tricky thing. If you plan on using participation as a portion of the students' grade, make sure you are clear as to what participation entails and for which part of the course, online or face to face.
When students meet during class time, it's a great opportunity for group work, debate, case studies, or other active learning strategies.
Time is precious and we never seem to have enough without reinventing the wheel each semester. Therefore, try using existing resources as a starting place for course content rather than creating all new online content yourself. You can always create your own content as needed.
Take advantage of the training offered by your institution. You may have the opportunity to learn new skills or refresh existing ones like using the Joule Gradebook, Joule Reports, adding resources and activities.
