Creating Effective Blended Language Learning Courses Definitions and Research
from Part I - Theoretical Background
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 18 September 2020
Chapter 1 compares the curricular roles of technology in different language courses: Web-facilitated or -enhanced, blended, and fully online. The chapter also provides definitions of the term blended and a rationale for its adoption. In addition, Chapter 1 reviews comparative and noncomparative research studies conducted in the field in order to describe the conditions for effectively blending language environments. The review of research presented proves that blended learning (BL) in language education cannot be considered a monolithic enterprise and that there are currently as many different models – and divergent results – as there are programs or instructors implementing them.
