Designing Hybrid Courses for ESL Students in Intensive English Programs
Abstract
Hybrid courses offer English-as-a-second-language students the opportunity to experience what it’s like to take a course online and face-to-face. They have the benefit of building connections in the classroom and increasing their skills in self-directed learning, thus creating greater learner autonomy, and preparing them for university in America, and beyond.
