There were 162 students who participated in this study (100 females and 62 males, with the mean age of 18.80 and its standard deviation of 1.16) . The study revealed that students prefer blended learning to traditional classroom in EFL context. However, they liked to take English exams in paper-and-pencil form, rather than in digital form. As for submitting English assignments online or personally, their opinions were divided. They also similarly trusted to analog and digital English teaching/learning materials. Students had a moderately positive attitude toward infographics and paperless classroom within EFL environment.Their English proficiency levels were in a positive correlation with their preferences toward blended learning for EFL purposes. The obtained results were discussed in line with contemporary approaches in educational sciences. Additionally, some recommendations for future work in this field were made.  \nKey words: blended learning, paperless classroom, technological devices, English as a foreign language (EFL)  \n1. Introduction  \nContemporary education has to go hand in hand with the global development in various areas of human activity. Information and communication technologies (ICT) spread across almost all segments of modern society (international relations, economy, health service, leisure time, education, etc.) . A relatively new concept of learning and teaching arose from the ICT influences on education. This is blended learning, defined as a combination of instructional modalities, especially face-to-face and online learning (Tayebinik & Puteh, 2012) . Thus, blended learning is a mixture of traditional and paperless (digital) classroom. It is probably a better way of delivering teaching materials and feedback for the new generations of students in all levels of education.  \nAttitudes toward blended learning, according to some authors, can be examined within the following six learning aspects: learning flexibility, study management, technology, online learning, online interaction, and classroom learning (Tang & Chaw, 2013) . Attitudes investigated in such a way are indicators of student's readiness for blended learning. Interestingly, students who generally have positive attitudes (and great levels of motivation) toward learning also have more positive attitudes toward online learning in blended courses (Zhu, Au, & Yates, 2013) . In general, applying blended learning model to the classroom activities has a significantly positive impact on students' attitudes to this system of learning (Al-Shaer, 2013; Lin, Tseng, & Chiang, 2017) . Attitudes toward blended learning are similar to those toward the usage of social media for academic purposes (Acar, 2013) . Learners' satisfaction with a course delivered by the means of blended learning is closely linked to their attitudes to this type of instructional setting. It is usually measured by using self-report questionnaires (Bowyer & Chambers, 2017) .  \nSome important and pedagogically relevant benefits of blended learning were listed. It generates interest in the class, enhances students' language skills, fosters deeper learning, motivates students, as  \nwell as makes them inspired, active, and more involved in technology (Abdelhak, 2015) . It was determined that blended learning yielded better academic performance compared to learning delivered only online (Slomanson, 2014) . Students prefer this type of learning and instruction to the traditional one and it seems blended learning is a more effective way of enhancing students' critical thinking skills and their interest in a particular school subject or academic course they are enrolled in (Korkmaz & Karakuş, 2009) .  \nThis kind of learn","cbCaivCLKCdYu5Px","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaivCLKCdYu5Px","pdf",411185,"English","# Introduction\n## Research questions\n# Methodology\n## Participants","[{\"question\":\"How many students participated, and what were their demographics?\",\"answer\":\"The study included 162 students: 100 females (61.7%) and 62 males (38.3%), with a mean age of 18.80 (SD = 1.16), ranging from 17 to 24 years.\"},{\"question\":\"Which learning format did students prefer in the EFL context?\",\"answer\":\"Students preferred blended learning to traditional classroom instruction in the EFL context.\"},{\"question\":\"Did students prefer digital or paper-and-pencil exams?\",\"answer\":\"Students preferred taking English exams in paper-and-pencil form rather than in digital form.\"}]","Students’ Attitudes toward Blended Learning in EFL Context | PDF",1792064561]
