Hybrid Learning Effects on Indonesian Students Majoring in Industrial Engineering for Understanding and Performance: A Case Study with an Experimental Design

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, most schools and colleges have adopted hybrid learning. Hybrid learning, also called “blended learning,” mixes online and classroom instruction. Blended learning may become permanent as face-to-face and internet-based education become more accepted. We examined how hybrid learning affects the understanding of Indonesian students majoring in Industrial Engineering at Atma Jaya Catholic University. In this study, understanding matched learning efficacy. An experimental design was used to measure component influence. In strategic planning, strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT) analysis was used as an effective tool to examine an organization’s internal and external variables with a learning methodology design. A questionnaire survey was conducted to measure the understanding of the SWOT analysis results and the related strategy. A total of 96 participants were involved in this study. The mixed learning method, using the weakness–opportunity or mini–maxi strategy with the divestment–investment principle, was found to be effective.
