Abstract

Despite many potential benefits, hybrid learning is not yet very diffused, because of the issues entailed by a thorough institutional change in this direction. In this paper, we suggest that changes at activity or course level, on the other hand, is not very difficult and onerous to implement, even in absence of a thorough institutional change. To this end, we present the case of a face-toface course run in a very traditional school setting, that was turned by the teacher into a hybrid one, using as only resources a careful methodological planning and free blog space. The positive outcomes of this experience encourage the application of a similar approach in other situations, thus helping to prepare the ground for a wider transformation in the educational system.
