The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of using a blended learning method on ninth grade students' achievements in English and their motivation towards learning it. The sample consisted of 100 female students selected purposefully and distributed into two groups: experimental and control. The experimental group studied English through a computerized program in the traditional method, while the control group was taught by the traditional method only. The results revealed statistically significant differences between the two groups in favor of the experimental group both in the achievement and the motivation towards learning English. The researchers recommended using computerized teaching in addition to the traditional method due to the positive results shown by the current study. In addition, they recommended conducting studies that measure the effect of blended learning on some aspects related to English language such as: vocabulary, spelling, pronunciation, or any other aspects.

  En los últimos años es frecuente la impartición de la educación física (EF) en lengua inglesa, lo que puede influir sobre las percepciones que los alumnos[1] tienen sobre dicha asignatura. En el presente estudio se analizó el efecto de una metodología bilingüe, el code-switching, sobre la percepción de la comunicación docente y la motivación. La muestra estuvo compuesta por 94 estudiantes de entre 12 y 14 años (M= 13.76; DT=.86). El grupo experimental (n=46) estuvo formado por dos grupos pertenecientes a formas diferentes de implantación del bilingüismo (programa y sección) y el grupo control (n= 47) por dos grupos equivalentes a los anteriores. Previo a la intervención, se realizaron entrevistas a profesorado de EF; los cuestionarios pre y post fueron administrados al alumnado al inicio y al fin de la misma. Tras la intervención se hallaron diferencias en la motivación intrínseca de uno de los grupos experimentales. Los resultados sugieren que la percepción de la comunicación docente por parte de los alumnos no difiere en función de que la clase se imparta íntegramente en inglés o utilizando el code-switching. Se discuten las implicaciones educativas de estos hallazgos.  Abstract. Over the last few years, the teaching of PE in English language has become frequent which could influence the perceptions that students have about this subject. In the present study the effect of a bilingual methodology, code-switching, on perceptions of teaching communication and motivation was analyzed. The sample was composed by 94 students aging from 12 to 14 (M=13,76; SD= .86). Experimental group (n=46) was formed by two classes with different bilingual programs (programa and sección) and control group (n=47), by other two equivalent groups. After the intervention significant differences in intrinsic motivation were found in one of the experimental groups. The findings suggest that the perceptions of teaching communication do not differ between students taught completely in English and students taught through code-switching. Educational implications of these findings are discussed.
