Blended learning is an area of ELT that continues to be of interest to practitioners in the field. Despite this, little can be found in the literature on blended learning course design or detailed descriptions provided of blends used in ELT contexts. This publication, which contains twenty case studies from around the world, addresses this deficit by illustrating blends being employed on EAP, ESP, Teacher Development and general EFL courses.

Do you wonder where we, as teacher leaders, stand on this issue? I think it is one where the teacher voice could play an influential role BEFORE the standards are set and someone else co-op's the conversation. Delete the scoop?
