Three mornings a week, students in Carrie DeValk’s college-level composition class at New Prague High School will report to her classroom just as they would to any other class. The other two days, they can choose to work online in the library — or even at home. Hybrid courses such as DeValk’s, which blend online and in-class lessons, are increasingly common at Twin Cities metro-area high schools. It’s a trend that advocates say is the future of education, giving students the benefits of online learning as well as regular face-to-face time with classmates and teachers.
