Abstract

The present paper reports on a "hybrid" course, where a significant amount of the course-related
learning activities take place in an online learning environment, making it possible to optimize the
learning and teaching methodologies and the amount of time spent in the classroom for a short and
intensive International Summer Course. Twenty eight candidates applied for the course from six
different countries with different ethnical and religious believes. Twenty five students from four
different countries (Croatia, Kosovo, Macedonia and Serbia) attended the ”Online Teaching” Summer
Course. The official language of the course was English. The traditional face-to-face instruction is
reduced but not eliminated. Instead, active learning techniques are implemented, both in and outside
of the class room and are used “to supplement rather than replace lectures”. This paper addresses the
authors (co-teachers) experience throughout the course the “International Summer School” that was
held in Bitola, Macedonia.
Keywords - Hybrid Course, Multicultural, Multiethnic, Active Learning, Online Teaching.
