especially ESP blended learning programs in higher education, which can improve the communicative environments for Vietnamese students However, the effectiveness of this program is not clearly recognized This paper aims at evaluating the effectiveness of an ESP blended learning program for second-year students majoring in Chemistry in a university in Hanoi, finding the difficulties which teachers and students have to encounter during teaching and learning this program Based on which some recommendations were suggested to design a better learning and teaching program This paper is a survey research project identifying learner evaluation towards the effectiveness of an ESP blended learning program as well as teacher evaluation of the program through their learning and teaching experience The author conducted a survey questionnaire at Chemistry department of a university in Hanoi with 55 student respondents Also, the researcher interviewed English teachers who are in charge of teaching English for these students The results revealed that the students‟ perceptions and attitudes towards the effectiveness of blended learning program were positive in terms of the four domains in the questionnaire: (i) online learning parts, (ii) face-to-face lessons, (iii) online and face-to-face integration, and (iv) learners‟ outcomes However, regarding implementing ESP blended learning for the second-year students in the Chemistry department, some negations are openly acknowledged In addition, possible suggestions are proposed for enhancing the effectiveness of such program

interviews and questionnaires illustrated that the ESP blended learning program was effective and helpful in improving students‟ English ability, to some extent One the one hand, with regard of the effectiveness of the ESP blended learning program, both the course teachers and students‟ evaluations indicated that the students highly appreciated this ESP blended learning in diverse ways Firstly, the program provides students with a better learning environment through a good online website running quite smoothly Students can learn online through various types of task with a rich amount of knowledge related to their major Secondly, face-to-face sessions present very clear objectives for every single lesson and unit that helps students understand what they have to reach in the end of the program Moreover, the face-to-face lessons contain a great deal of interesting and helpful activities help improve students‟ speaking skills under the helpful instructions and guides from the teachers Thirdly, there is a close integration between online and face-to-face which enlightens about blended learning and helps them recognized the usefulness of learning online and face-to-face at the same time Finally, the ESP blended learning program motivated the students to become more independent and autonomous learners and also provided opportunities to practice language and helped students gain a broad knowledge of the fields that can be applied in their future job Also, the course provided students with many opportunities to improve their English skills, especially speaking skills that are the most essential for them nowadays On the other hand, participants expressed their difficulties encountered during experiencing this course Concerning students‟ evaluation towards the program, the analysis of the questionnaires revealed that majority of the students found it is challenging to learn online with so many exercises and pass the final exam with getting at least mark Besides, the teachers noted that they had met some challenges during teaching this ESP blended learning program such as mixed-ability classes, learners‟ negative attitudes, major-related knowledge, and so on The participants also suggested some solutions for dealing with these difficulties and proposed some possible recommendations for enhancing the effectiveness of this 55

ESP blended learning program in terms of the online content, the teaching offline methodology and the learners‟ outcome While evaluating the ESP blended learning applying for second-year students majoring in Chemistry in the university, some broader implications were drawn from the results for a more effective ESP blended learning program Firstly, the online content is too heavy that learners sometimes feel overloaded and demotivated, so it is better if the number of online exercises could be reduced to be more reasonable Secondly, for more effective teaching and learning, teachers can keep contact with learners and support them more frequently Finally, students should be classified from the beginning of the course to arrange them into the suitable level class Last but not least, the university should provide better online system with quicker helps and supports from IT department It is obvious that the benefits of the program outweigh its weaknesses Therefore, the program with some changes as suggested in the implications part can be nominated to be a good program to teach a foreign language at this university 5.2 Limitations and suggestions for further studies Although efforts have been made, some limitations are unavoidable during the process of doing the research The weaknesses of this research can be the suggestions for further studies in the future 5.2.1 Limitations Due to various constraints, several limitations exist in the present study The limitations might somehow influence the research Firstly, according to Pombo and Moreira‟s evaluation framework (2011), there are four questions should be solved when evaluating a blended learning program, but this study focuses only on question four “What should be evaluated?” Therefore, there are more issues, which have not been evaluated yet Secondly, the size of the respondents of this study (55 students and teachers) is not big enough as expected 56

Finally, this study just carries out at the Chemistry Department, but other departments in the university also implement this program Hence, the result of the study may not be applied to examine the impact of blended learning in the university contexts 5.2.2 Suggestions for further studies Doing program evaluation means more than evaluating through the perception of teachers and students about the strengths and weaknesses of the program Other aspects could offer room for evaluation like evaluating the teachers‟ performance and learners‟ performance, evaluating materials used in the program and such However, since this is the first evaluation of the program to be done and due to the time matter, the researcher only focuses on the mentioned issues Due to the limit of time and scope, limitations and shortcomings are inevitable Hopefully, further research in the future will reach particular success in the above fields The researcher would like to recommend further study as following suggestions for enhancing the effectiveness and solving the challenges of such program The first suggestion for future research would be to adopt the same research methodology and conduct research for other students majoring in other fields and see whether there has been any different on students‟ evaluation on the effectiveness of the ESP blended learning applying in the same university The further studies are expected to investigate both four aspects of the framework to find out more detailed about the ESP blended learning program Secondly, the university is experiencing a challenging time because of the changes in implementing this program for students in every department Therefore, it is important to investigate whether these efforts get a good result or not Besides, conducting the same research for other students would also test the reliability of this research Finally, the same research could be conducted for more students and teachers for more reliable results The research instruments should be varied for further studies such as interviews, observations, pre-test, and post-test It is expected that there will be some differences in the students and teachers‟ evaluations on the ESP blended learning between different years 57
