Özet
The hybrid learning model is an educational approach that combines online and offline elements and emerged especially after the COVID-19 pandemic (Ma, 2023). In this approach, traditional face-to-face education and online education were combined and it was aimed to provide more accessible, flexible and student-centered experiences ( Kamsin , 2024). With the COVID-19 pandemic, serious changes have occurred in education systems on a global scale. Schools were closed in many regions, and when they were opened, it was not possible to continue face-to-face education. During this process, a total of 1 billion 575 million students in 188 countries around the world were affected by school closures due to preventive measures (UNESCO, 2020a ). Traditional face-to-face education practices have therefore given way to online and hybrid learning models. ( Carr , 2021). However, this transformation has not always been beneficial in the early childhood period, which is a developmentally critical process, and has brought with it some disadvantages. For this reason, the suitability and sustainability of the model, especially in the context of pre-school education, is being discussed by researchers and educators.
