How do we blend the best of digital and face-to-face learning? In the third episode of our Motivation and Social Learning series, Fiona Mauchline, Nick Thorner and Ed Dudley explore the practicalities and pedagogical implications of blended learning in ELT.

 

From QR code quizzes to multimodal communication and anonymous participation, the episode offers real classroom examples of how technology can enhance—not replace—human connection. The panel also discusses the risks of over-reliance on digital tools, the importance of boundaries, and how to maintain classroom focus and inclusivity in tech-rich environments.
