- Adaptability: Each lesson is easily adapted to meet the needs of individuals and/or classes.
- Substitute lesson plan: The instructor can still be involved when he or she cannot be in class for the lesson.
- Anytime| Anywhere| Any subject| : Students can experience an entire lesson from home or in class; students can be absent and still participate in the lesson without falling behind; students can participate in any subject matter as HyperDocs enables all teachers to incorporate all content areas into their HyperDocs instructions.
- Student Engagement and Enhanced Learning: Every student in the room is engaged and learning both independently and together; no student is left without a voice.s
