BLENDED LEARNING IN ENGLISH LANGUAGE TEACHING: PEDAGOGICAL IMPLICATIONS

Аннотация

Blended learning (BL), which combines traditional face-to-face instruction with online components, is gaining prominence in English language teaching (ELT). This article explores the pedagogical implications of integrating blended learning into ELT classrooms, focusing on its potential to enhance learner engagement, autonomy, and communicative competence. Drawing on classroom observations, teacher interviews, and student feedback, the study highlights the benefits and challenges of blended learning in EFL contexts. Findings suggest that, when implemented strategically, BL supports differentiated instruction, increases learner motivation, and facilitates meaningful use of technology in language education.
