Abstract
Introductory Biology at North Carolina State University is a freshman course taught in large lecture halls using a standard, lecture-based format. We are experimenting with a hybrid course that utilizes a multimedia, interactive course website to replace lectures and allows classroom time to be utilized for application of knowledge and active-learning exercises. The results from the first semester of the new course are promising, but suggest several ways in which the hybrid format can be improved.
