Thus, this systematic review aims to provide ESP practitioners with a current synthesis of the impact of blended learning on English for specific purposes (ESP) instruction. The current study systematically reviews and synthesizes studies related to blended learning and ESP with the aim of providing a comprehensive analysis of 28 research articles published across 2012-2022 and meeting selection criteria. Findings show that blended learning can foster university ESP students’language skills. The majority of studies stress that blended learning brings considerable benefits to their ESP learning, namely flexibility, autonomy, and collaboration. The findings also revealed that few students faced some challenges such as demotivation, procrastination, and technical issues. In light of these results, the review ends up with implications for ESP teachers and researchers.  \nKEYWORDS: Blended learning (BL), English for specific purposes (ESP), Systematic review.  \n1 INTRODUCTION  \nIn recent years, an intense interest grew in the study of the effectiveness of ICT implementation for teaching purposes. More specifically, many researchers have become more interested in investigating the impact of educational technology on ESP (English for specific purposes) instruction. The reason lies in the considerable potential of ICT integration to boost students’ learning gains. An important body of research provides ample empirical evidence highlighting the tremendous importance of educational technology in the further refinement of the teaching-learning outcomes (see for example, Al-Jarf, 2004; Driscoll et al. , 2012; Erguig, 2009; Guangying, 2014; Kazua & Demirkol, 2014; Korkofingas & Macri, 2013; Yang, 2011; Yapici & Akbayin, 2012; Yeou, 2016; Zyad, 2017) .  \nICT implementation has always been considered as a sound investment to improve the quality of education, in general, and language teaching and learning, in particular (Chouthaiwale & Alkamel, 2018; Ghasemi & Hashemi, 2011; Mullamaa, 2010) . Due to the Covid-19 lockdown, schools and universities all around the world were obliged to shift to online instruction. The spread of Corona virus urged distance learning to become a dire necessity rather than a mere choice. In the school year 2020/2021, however, great efforts have been exerted to adopt blended learning which has now become a popular approach to teaching and learning (Graham, 2013) . It is defined as “a combination of traditional faceto-face and online instruction” (Graham, 2006, p.4) . Simply put, blended learning is a learning environment in which face-to-face communication is mixed with online learning.  \nSpecial emphasis has been laid on blended learning because of its considerable potential to enhance students’ performance outcomes (Albiladi & Alshareef, 2019; El Messaoudi, 2021; Li, 2018; Momchilova, 2021; Sari et al., 2018) . Unlike purely online learning, whose major drawback is the deprivation of students of social and face-to-face interaction with teachers and peers, blended learning offers learners the benefits and opportunities of both face-to-face contact and educatio","cbCaipPNQ3LtKZ46","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaipPNQ3LtKZ46","pdf",315281,11,"English","# Introduction\n## ICT and educational technology in ESP\n## Blended learning definition and benefits\n# Abstract\n# Keywords\n# Findings and implications","[{\"question\":\"What is the main purpose of this systematic review?\",\"answer\":\"To provide a current synthesis of how blended learning affects English for specific purposes (ESP) instruction.\"},{\"question\":\"Which studies are included in the review?\",\"answer\":\"The review systematically reviews and synthesizes 28 research articles published from 2012 to 2022 that meet predefined selection criteria.\"},{\"question\":\"What benefits of blended learning are highlighted for university ESP students?\",\"answer\":\"The findings show that blended learning can foster language skills and brings benefits such as flexibility, autonomy, and collaboration.\"}]","Blended learning in English for specific purposes instruction - A systematic review | PDF",1792092695,28,{"code":4,"msg":82,"data":100},[101,105,109,113,118,123,127,130,135,138,142],{"id":22,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":102,"show_sort_weight":103,"slug":104},"Story & Novel",90,"story-novel",{"id":26,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":106,"show_sort_weight":107,"slug":108},"Literature",80,"literature",{"id":33,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":110,"show_sort_weight":111,"slug":112},"Exam",70,"exam",{"id":114,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":115,"show_sort_weight":116,"slug":117},5,"Comic",60,"comic",{"id":119,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":120,"show_sort_weight":121,"slug":122},6,"Technology",50,"technology",{"id":55,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":124,"show_sort_weight":125,"slug":126},"Healthcare",40,"healthcare",{"id":86,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":29,"show_sort_weight":128,"slug":129},30,"research-report",{"id":131,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":132,"show_sort_weight":133,"slug":134},9,"Religion & Spirituality",20,"religion-spirituality",{"id":133,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":136,"show_sort_weight":133,"slug":137},"World Cup","world-cup",{"id":139,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":140,"show_sort_weight":139,"slug":141},10,"Lifestyle","lifestyle",{"id":143,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":144,"show_sort_weight":114,"slug":145},19,"General","general"]
