module was devised to internalize and practice acquired skills of previous modules. 
For instance, the first module named ―English Language Improvement‖ was of 
paramount importance to open new avenues to language competency. All essential 
language skills were promoted to a great extent via the tasks and activities covered 
in the content of the course. Next module ―Language teaching and technology‖ was 
of the concern to broaden the horizons about teaching. As a participant of the 
program, I hold firmly the opinion that the following module fostered our computer 
literacy and digital competence. The tips of how to integrate technology into 
teaching were greatly acquired. The milestones of the course were definitely 
―Course Design and Evaluation‖ and ―Age Appropriate Pedagogy‖. These modules 
have really bridged the gap between theories and practice that have been studies in 
the courses thus far. We were enlightened on how to design the course, adapt the 
materials and overcome multi-level and different aged classrooms.
In sum, blended learning program is the vivid example to prove the fact of 
perceptible changes being occurred not only in the education system of our 
Republic, but in many continents of the world. Although, blended learning is not an 
education panacea, it is an exceedingly promising approach for both teachers and 
students. Without any shadow of doubt, the future in education is notoriously 
difficult to foresee; nonetheless, it is safe to predict that blended learning is here to 
stay. A blend of face-to-face and computer assisted learning is certainly in the 
future of most teaching and learning.
