Abstract
The hybrid learning exploited as a tool supporting the face-to-face form of instruction started to be implemented in this process two decades ago. Providing a wide rate of tools and strategies to each student, the information and communication technologies make efforts to support efficient learning. As a result students are positively motivated and able to develop their level of knowledge in the shortest time period spending least efforts. To reach such a level in the real process of instruction, the requirement for optimizing the teaching/learning arose, particularly the call for improving the flexibility of the process, mainly by applying the individualized approach.
