Blended Learning in Animal Biotechnology during Pre-COVID-19, COVID-19 and Post COVID-19 Recovery Phase Periods across the Globe: a Step Forward or Backward?

Blended learning is a learning method that combines both Information and Communications Technology (ICT) with traditional teaching. Since the COVID-19 pandemic strikes globally, the application of blended learning has increased exponentially and significantly. E-learning is a critical part of blended learning and the animal biotechnology is one of the subjects that necessitates blended learning. In this review, we described several animal biotechnology blended learning research across the globe over the past five years (pre-COVID-19, COVID-19 and post COVID-19 recovery phase periods), highlighted their methodologies and outcomes before providing future insights to move this learning method forward and to greater heights.
