The HYBOT project addressed the growing need for digital transformation and innovative post-pandemic learning approaches in higher education, equipping educators with essential tools and competencies to modernise their teaching practices. Specifically, the project aimed to empower HEI teachers, particularly those primarily working in face-to-face learning environments, to design and implement hybrid teaching scenarios enhanced by chatbots. Its objectives were: - To enhance teachers' skills in designing and implementing hybrid teaching scenarios, - To enable teachers to create and deploy chatbots within hybrid educational settings, and - To improve learners' experiences in chatbot-supported hybrid teaching environments. The project sought to bridge pedagogical and technological gaps, fostering more interactive and personalised learning opportunities in post-pandemic educational contexts.
