Agile-blended learning is an innovative teaching approach that combines the features of agile learning and blended learning to create a personalized and flexible learning experience enabled by technology. With agile-blended learning, students have greater control over their learning experience. This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of the agile-blended learning approach by designing a program that utilized YouTube channels and guided study during lectures and tutorials for an Early Childhood pre-service teacher program in Hong Kong. The results demonstrated that this approach was highly effective in enhancing students' flexibility and independence in learning. The majority of students preferred this learning approach over traditional methods, as it was tailored to their individual needs and allowed them to make more efficient use of class time. Based on the findings and experiences gained from implementing the agile-blended learning approach, this paper provides recommendations for designing and implementing a more effective and practical agile-blended learning approach.
