Abstract

Conventional definition of hybrid learning has been criticised as sketchy and confusing. This paper critically reviews the literature on hybrid learning and attempts to offer an overview of the state of art in the understanding of the notion of hybrid learning through a meta-analysis of relevant studies. What hybrid learning refers to will be analysed by examining its denotative and connotative senses. Through investigation of the components of the notion, the core and associated elements in the meaning of hybrid learning will be analyzed. Since several terms have been used as synonyms of hybrid learning, their currency and suitability will also be examined.
