The implementation of blended learning in the undergraduate level at the University of Barcelona has been reviewed. The study identified those degrees in which blended learning has, at the institutional level, a significant weight. In them the reasons that have determined the application of this learning method, as well as the problems associated with both structural implementation and teaching practice are analysed. The methodology used was based on semi-structured interviews and specific questionnaires to academic managers and teachers involved. Final remarks include a series of reflections that can be useful in later experiences in the framework of European future trends in blended learning.Downloads
