摘要:A new trend of teaching modality of blended learning (BL) has emerged with the fast development of modern technology of communications and the application of the technology in education. Despite the popularity of BL among social researchers, relatively few studies have been conducted in respect of students themselves. A survey was conducted on the current situation of students’ self-regulation efficacy in English learning in a BL context in Dalian University of Technology (DUT); and the results indicate show that students in DUT do not possess strong self-regulatory ability in English learning in the BL context, while the outcome also implies that postgraduates’ self-regulatory ability is stronger than that of undergraduates. The outcome also supports the argument that students’ self-regulatory ability can be enhanced through teaching, learning and practice. Several empirical suggestions are provided that may be helpful for the English teaching instructors in order to enhance students’ self-regulatory ability in English learning in a BL context based on the findings.
