About

Benjamin Gleason is a leading scholar in the field of educational technology, with a primary focus on hybrid and blended learning environments in higher education. His most influential work explores the transformative potential of robot-mediated communication (RMC) as a tool to bridge the gap between online and face-to-face pedagogy. Gleason’s research critically examines how institutions can leverage these technologies to create more equitable and accessible pathways for student enrollment, retention, and academic success. His seminal paper, "Hybrid Education: The Potential of Teaching and Learning with Robot-Mediated Communication" (2017), has garnered 78 citations, establishing a foundational framework for understanding the challenges and opportunities of blended instruction. A subsequent publication on the same theme (13 citations) further solidifies his contribution to the field. By addressing the practical and pedagogical hurdles of implementing hybrid models, Gleason’s work provides essential guidance for educators and administrators striving to design inclusive, technology-enhanced learning experiences. His research remains highly relevant as universities worldwide continue to adapt to the demands of flexible, equitable education.
