Introduction: In this study, a blended learning course, designedusing a participatory design approach and Persuasive Technology(PT), was evaluated by students and teachers. The use ofa participatory design and PT may help facilitate a blended learningcourse that motivates students and supports teachers in this relativelynew field. Method: Students received the blended course aspart of their regular curriculum. Subsequently, interviews with students(N = 10) and teachers (N = 3), as well as a survey amongstudents (N = 35) were held to evaluate the blended course. Results:Most of the PT which was implemented motivated the students toparticipate in the online course. The techniques suggestions, similarity,reduction, self-monitoring and tunneling seemed to specificallymotivate students. According to the students, their teacherssufficiently integrated the online course with the Face to FaceClasses. Teachers stated that they stimulated intrinsic motivation,supported students to complete their tasks and facilitated theblended learning process (integrating the different elements ofa blended learning course). Discussion/Conclusion: The use of PTmotivated students. Teachers played a crucial role in mergingdifferent aspects of the blended learning course. Future challengeswould be the implementation of social support online. What do you want to do ?New mail
