    Blended learning refers to combining face-to-face classroom instruction with online learning components. It allows students to learn independently outside of class through resources like web-based materials or CD-ROMs. The teacher assigns tasks between face-to-face meetings. Using technology in language teaching is beneficial as it motivates students through interactive exercises and games. It also provides immediate feedback. However, factors like teacher training and students' language level influence how and how often technology is used. The roles of the teacher and technology should be clearly separated, with technology used to complement rather than replace in-person instruction.

    Blended Learning

    In this summary, I will talk about how using technology in language teaching; it is

    not only to support the teachers, also to help students learn independently.

    Sometimes happened when we attended a conference often hear comments about

    what is technology. Some people know how to use email and internet in general

    but it is very important for teachers in school to know about how to use a blog or an

    interactive whiteboard in order for the students to work outside the classroom.

    Blended Learning refers to a language course which combines a face-to-face (F2F)

    classroom component with an appropriate use of technology. A Blended Learning

    course is potentially greater than the sum of its parts, and positive learning

    outcomes are most apparent when clear roles are assigned to the teacher and to

    the technology. The term Blended Language can be applied to a very broad range

    of teaching and learning situations.it is commonly applied to a course where all the

    learners meet with the teacher face-to-face (F2F), but in which the course includes

    a parallel self-study component such as a CD-ROM or access to web-based

    materials. Learners can be set pre-lesson task or specific homework task between

    the F2F classes.

    Pete Sharma & Barney Barrett
    It is important to use technology in language teaching this can be motivated;

    playing a language-learning game is one example. Learners enjoy tasks. Many

    learners simply like using the computer. On the other hand, interactivity of

    language exercises can be highly beneficial. Web-based exercises are more

    interactive than paper-based exercises. The type of feedback which good

    interactive materials provide is appreciated by learners.

    Factors influencing the uptake of blended learning

    There is a number of important factors exist which will influence the use of

    technology in language courses. Teachers and learners may hold positive,

    negative or neutral attitudes toward technology.

    The learners’ level may be an influencing factor in which type of technology you

    use and how often it is used. Teacher training is a vital factor in the uptake of new

    technology. It is useful to consider which areas and knowledge are useful for

    teachers.

    Balancing traditional approaches and technology

    1- Separate the role of the teacher and the role of the technology.

    2- Teach in a principled way.

    3- Use technology to complement and enhance F2F teaching.

    4- “It is not so much the program, more what you do with it”
