description E-learning and blended learning have gained growing interest and have become increasingly popular at schools, colleges and universities. However, neither institutions nor lecturers are entirely prepared to apply this new method. The paper presents results of an original research concerning blended learning at a private-owned college in Wrocław, Poland, Wyższa Szkoła Handlowa (WSH). The research relied on online questionnaires and interviews and it was designed to identify good and bad practices in order to improve quality and efficiency of teaching via an e-learning platform. The results discussed herein concern division of a course within blended learning – a compromise between traditional education and elearning curricula. The article shows opinions of students and lecturers on which parts of particular subjects should be presented online or traditionally. It also refers these opinions to the published literature and to Polish legal provisions. The paper includes conclusions and recommendations for teachers and teaching institutions
