THE BLENDED LEARNING STATION ROTATION MODEL IN EFL TEACHING: OPINIONS OF THE IMPLEMENTER
Abstract
The study’s purpose is to reveal the implementer’s opinions toward the use of the Station Rotation Model (SRM) of blended learning, in terms of features, challenges and effectiveness of the model including further implementation and suggestions for the station rotation model. A mixed research approach was conducted using qualitative data analysed within the quantitative method. A qualitative method approach was employed to collect data from the implementer. A semi-structured interview was conducted with the implementer (an English language teacher) to gather feedback on SRM implementation. The findings revealed that the implementer mostly mentioned fulfilling hobbies as a feature of the model, and most students faced challenges in the group working station, while the pair working station was identified as the most effective Furthermore, the results of implementer’s further implementation of the model and suggestions for SRM are discussed.
