  Technology is influencing education, providing new delivery and assessment
models. A combination between online and traditional course, the hybrid
(blended) course, may present a solution with many benefits as it provides a
gradual transition towards technology enabled education. This research work
provides a set of definitions for several course delivery approaches, and
evaluates five years of data from a course that has been converted from
traditional face-to-face delivery, to hybrid delivery. The collected
experimental data proves that the revised course, in the hybrid delivery mode,
is at least as good, if not better, than it previously was and it provides some
benefits in terms of student retention.
