ELT Buzz News Report

All the "buzz" in ELT. February 20th.

Feb 20

Dear ELT Professionals,

Find some “buzz” from ELT below.

My recommendation this week is this article by a university instructor on how a blended learning curriculum was implemented and why it is so important for any classroom. It’s an approach all teachers should hold close to their chests.
