Introduction

It is the 17th of July 2023. Welcome to episode 24 of the Delivering Development podcast, helping language teachers and others in the field to enhance their professional development. My name is Kevin Westbrook, and with me today are Neil Bullock and Laura Styles.

Today, the plan was to look at some of the terminology around blended learning. We did a decent job on “flipped learning”, I think, but that was all we had time for!

We will be following this up in a future episode to cover some of the other terminological issues!
