The Role of Blended (Hybrid) Learning in Developing the Educational Process in Preparatory and Secondary Schools

Published: 2026-01-21

Abstract

This research paper examines the role of blended (hybrid) learning in enhancing the educational process across preparatory and secondary school levels. By combining traditional face-to-face classroom instruction with digital learning tools and online platforms, blended learning offers a flexible, student-centered framework. This paper provides an in-depth analysis of the theoretical foundations, practical benefits, and critical field challenges—including network infrastructure limitations, recreational tablet distractions (gaming), and household socioeconomic constraints. Utilizing a descriptive-analytical approach, the study offers actionable solutions to ensure equitable digital access, ethical technology integration, and enhanced student achievement

Keywords: Blended Learning Hybrid Education. Digital Divide AI-Assisted Research.
