ABSTRACT

The COVID-19 pandemic has precipitated a rapid shift towards online learning, presenting formidable challenges to traditional paradigms of curriculum design. This paper delves into the integration of technology within educational frameworks, scrutinizing its transformative impact on both curriculum development and pedagogical approaches. This research underscores the imperative for a hybrid curriculum model by meticulously analyzing contemporary literature and case studies. This proposed model synergistically blends conventional teaching methodologies with digital modalities. The paper pays special attention to the efficacious deployment of online learning platforms and digital tools, highlighting how these technologies have enhanced educational accessibility and flexibility. The advocated hybrid curriculum model is designed to optimize the learning experience while upholding the integrity and efficacy of educational delivery. This study holds significant implications for the future trajectory of education, influencing policy formulation and teaching practices in a post-pandemic era.
