Abstract

The chapter clarifies the concept of blended learning, starting from its origins, and links the use of education technologies to the improvement of learners' self-direction. Known as a useful personal skill fit to the characteristics of adult learners and their needs, self-direction is essential to promote lifelong learning. A specific study on the use of e-forum is presented in this chapter to address the place of digital technology in blended learning, notably to target learners' self-direction development. The final section of the chapter offers a conclusion resuming the recommendations related to the design and implementation of blended learning to enhance learners' self-direction.
