Abstract
The means for Hybrid learning take on many forms. In this paper, we look at learning facilitators that can be embedded within the user interface. We argue that these means of learning can be even more effective than formal training. We describe different features of the user interface that can provide just-in-time knowledge that fosters learning: immersing the student into a rich environment where he can readily have access to the information for the task at hand.
