Abstract: The purpose of this presentation is to provide information about the development and implementation of a collaborative evidence based practice (research) course using hybrid pedagogy. The processes of responding adaptively, rather than reactively, to reduce, reshape and rebuild initiative at one Midwestern university are shared. Included in this adaptive response, educators and students are confronted with applying various online and classroom learning strategies. Educators and students at our university possess varied skill levels and experience in online education. This presentation provides information about the development and application of specific lessons, as well as use of quality freely-accessible and instructor-developed online content. The adaptive responses described within the presentation can be modified for use in a variety of educational settings.
