“…Additionally, BL in language teaching can effectively enhance the learning motivation of EFL learners (Chen, 2020;Kim, 2017) and contribute to their academic achievement (Rankin, 2022). Specifically, BL was reported to lead to significant improvements in certain language skills, including reading (Ghazizadeh & Fatemipour, 2017;Shang, 2021) , writing (Lam et al, 2018), as well as speaking and listening (Lu, 2022).Furthermore, the integration of technology in language teaching and learning was reported to enhance EFL learners' courserelated activities (Wang et al, 2021). In general, most of the research has demonstrated that BL has the potential to improve the language proficiency of EFL learners and gain positive learner perceptions from learners (Bolandifar, 2017;Chen, 2020;Djiwandono, 2018;Ghazizadeh & Fatemipour, 2017;Gulnazet al, 2020;Wang et al, 2021;Yang & Kuo, 2023).…”
