Blended Massive Open Online Courses (bMOOCs) have arisen as a blended learning strategy that combines the use of MOOC platform-supported activities and video-based content with in-class face-to-face activities in Higher Education contexts. While first bMOOCs experiences are being reported in the literature, it is unclear which is the general perception of this approach by university teachers.
