In this meta-analysis, we estimate the effectiveness of hybrid language instruction overall and across a number of moderator variables by aggregating effect sizes from 11 studies with 34 samples. Results suggest hybrid language instruction can be just as effective as traditional face-to-face (f2f) instruction, as indicated by the negligible differences between hybrid courses and traditional f2f courses (d = .14). Furthermore, studies employing within-group designs indicate that students in hybrid language classes can improve their language skills considerably (d = 1.47). This is a positive finding given that many institutions have experienced a surge in hybrid teaching due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We also report on a number of moderator variables that can impact the effectiveness of hybrid language courses, including (a) the amount of reduction in f2f time, (b) the use of online activities provided by textbook publishers, (c) the use of a learning management system, (d) advances in digital technologies, (e) the targeted language skills (e.g., speaking, writing), and (f) whether the data come from initial or subsequent iterations of a hybrid course. Additionally, we offer directions for future research regarding the substantive and methodological issues in the hybrid language instruction domain.

混合语言教学的元分析和未来研究的呼吁

在这项荟萃分析中，我们通过汇总来自 11 项研究的 34 个样本的效应量，估计了混合语言教学的整体有效性和多个调节变量的有效性。结果表明，混合语言教学与传统的面对面 (f2f) 教学一样有效，混合课程与传统 f2f 课程之间的差异可以忽略不计 ( d = .14)。此外，采用组内设计的研究表明，混合语言班的学生可以显着提高他们的语言技能（d= 1.47)。这是一个积极的发现，因为许多机构由于 COVID-19 大流行而经历了混合教学的激增。我们还报告了一些可能影响混合语言课程有效性的调节变量，包括 (a) f2f 时间的减少量，(b) 使用教科书出版商提供的在线活动，(c) 使用学习管理系统，（d）数字技术的进步，（e）目标语言技能（例如，口语，写作），以及（f）数据是否来自混合课程的初始或后续迭代。此外，我们为混合语言教学领域的实质性和方法论问题的未来研究提供了方向。
