SUMMARY:

Covid-19 pandemic has accelerated and highlighted the need to incorporate digital
Technologies into the teaching and learning process. This conclusion is not unheard of, since
several educators, such as Valente (2015), Horn and Staker (2013), Bacich, Neto and Trevisani
(2015), Moran (2018) already pointed to hybrid teaching or blended learning as the biggest
educational trend for this century. Hybrid teaching goes against the traditional educational
model, which is focused on transmitting content (FREIRE, 1996), it considers the different
forms of teaching and learning, i.e., that it is not limited to a single way of being, or time and
space, which may have great allies such as Digital Information Communication Technologies.
From this perspective, the blended learning holds the principles of personalized teaching,
student protagonism, flexibility, meaningful learning through real-world problem solving,
development of social and emotional competencies and skills. However, as every paradigm
shift has its challenges, the application of hybrid education, even if it was on an emergency
way, exposed problems that need to be faced and overcome, among them, the lack of
technological infrastructure and the gap in teacher training to deal with digital teaching tools.
Concerning the time frame of the pandemic crisis, the general objective of the present study is
to evaluate potentialities and limitations related to the application of hybrid teaching in higher
education, of the Recife Campus, in IFPE. Regarding to the used methodology, it has a
qualitative approach, of applied field, which is characterized as a case study. With this research
it was possible to map the potentialities and limitations experienced by teachers and students
regarding hybrid education, reflect about them based on theoretical references and discuss
them, thus generating contributions and growth prospects (learnings) through a product that
will produce inputs for the academic community. Finally, it is hoped that the results of this
research will contribute to reflection and improving the teaching-learning process in that
institution and in others that resemble the context described in this study.
