This descriptive quantitative research involved 27 out of 135 students as the samples as they are part of a class that uses blended learning actively through their entire semester. These 27 students were selected by using random sampling technique from fourth, sixth, and eight semesters in regular class. The questionnaire used as the main instrument to collect the data. The data analyzed descriptively in term of mean and standard deviation then interpreted descriptively. The result of the findings revealed that the majority of students’ have high level of students’ interest and knowledge in blended learning context. It was proved by their mean score, interest students’ score 3.71 and the students’ knowledge score 3.67. The standard deviation to interest was 6,83 and knowledge was 5.28. This is means that the blended learning which employed during these 2 years in this department seems contributing a high interest and knowledge among the students. 1. Introduction Information technology (IT) has changed the learning through communication evolution, expanding audience (teleconferences), interactive textbooks, eBooks, tablet computing devices, extended classroom communities, and the rise of the World Wide Web. Limiting the use of technology only to presentations creates that confusion in relation to its feasibility in improving learning (Bond, Buntins, Bedenlier, Zawacki-Richter, & Kerres, 2020). We need to think of technology as a tool that enables us to reach resources easily and effectively (Junaidi, Hamuddin, Julita, Rahman, & Derin, 2020). We can access libraries, hold conferences, watch educational movies, conduct virtual experiments, communicate with experts, record lessons, plan their work, made virtual field trips and many other activities. Some of these activities needed weeks of planning and lots of effort within the traditional learning setting (Medora & Roy, 2017; Strogilos, Stefanidis, & Tragoulia, 2016). Further, 21st century assigns new challenges and duties on the modern era. A method of teaching English has changed drastically with the entry of technology in our lives. Technology can provide facilities that so many choices for teachers that can make their teaching more interesting and adore by students (Nursafira, 2020; Sağin, 2020). This blended learning “new things” including multimedia in teaching English to create the students' interest and knowledge in learn English through blended learning more practical and humanism. This helps students to get involved maximally and learn according to their interests. This idea has been proven by many kinds of research that effectively and is widely accepted for teaching English in a modern world (Putri, Hamuddin, Nursafira, & Derin, 2020; Yudar, Aditomo, Silalahi, 2020). Blended learning allows learners to visualize, listen, feel, and interact with the learning material. It moves them from theory into practice. They can gain a deeper understanding of all the abstractions they get through. They can learn according to their pace, which creates the opportunity for more individualized education as their learning is facilitated with many alternative learning media and entertaining learning tools (Kamelia, 2019; Putri, 2019). Good achiever can expand their learning and learn things that are not within the syllabus. However, the slow achievers can repeat and revise notes and get feedback from their teachers to overcome the problems and challenges they face (Bailey et al., 2013; DeMillo et al., 2016). With support from the extending IT made the blended learning strategy become easier to be implemented. For example, a visit to the public library take a whole day within the traditional learning strategy; however, students can virtually access the public library records and reach the books and resources they need while being seated in their classrooms or even their bedrooms (Bath and Bourke, 2010; Black & Muddiman, 2017; Crane, 2016). mailto:budihamuddin@gmail.com The journal of Ultimate Research and Trends in Education Available online at: http://ojs.journal.unilak.ac.id/index.php/utamax Vol. 2, No. 2, July 2020, pp. 80-87 81 Based on the introduction, the problems of the research were stated as follows: a) How is the students’ interest in learning English through blended learning at English Education Department in Universitas Lancang Kuning? b) How is the students’ familiarity using Blended Learning at English Education Department in Universitas Lancang Kuning? 2.

That was shown from mean and standard deviation of students’ score. This research had 2 problems that need to overcome: 1) The students’ interest in learn English through blended learning In this study, the researcher found 3 sub- indicators in learns English with blended learning. 3 sub-indicators consist of: a) Motivation: Motivation as inspiring interest, persistence, attention, action, and enjoyment. (Smit, de Brabander, Boekaerts, & Martens, 2017). Based on the results of the study, the motivation of students’ interest in learn English through blended learning can be categorized into high. Because blended learning could increase the interest of the students in learning English remotely and without active supervision from the teacher (Hamuddin, Syahdan, Rahman, Rianita, & Derin, 2019). Then, blended learning helped students’ to carry out their academic tasks more efficiently, and the context were more motivating to learners than conventional ones. b) Emotion: Emotions are intimately involved in virtually every aspect of the teaching and learning processes, therefore, an understanding of the nature of emotions within the school context is essential (Morris & King, 2020). Based on the results of the study, sees the emotion of students’ interest in learn English through blended learning can be categorized into high. Because blended learning helped the students’ could repeat the materials at home or anywhere, the students preferred attending virtual class meetings more than attending face-to-face meetings, also the service that the faculty provided in blended learning context was good enough. c) Interaction: interaction is reciprocal events that require at least two objects and two actions. Interactions occur when these 17 objects and events mutually influence one another (Doolan & Gilbert, 2017). Based on the results of the study, the interaction of students’ interest in learning English through blended learning can be categorized into high. This is because most of the students always gets in touch with familiar technology in their leaning process which helps them in getting information. Moreover, blended learning also offers the possibilities to efficiently manage their time as it forces both students and teachers to self-manage their time in speaking through screens within a limited time frame (Yuzar, 2020). 2) The students’ familiarity using blended learning In this study, this study found 2 sub-indicators in learns English with blended learning. 2 sub- indicators consist of: a) Activities: activities are defined as ‘any activities of an individual organized with the intention to improve his/her knowledge, skills and competences’ (European Commission, 2006). Based on the results of the study, the activities of students’ familiarity using blended learning can be categorized into high. Because, they were satisfied through using blended learning, and the students felt the blended learning is suitable for them, also they were more enjoying in learn English. b) Progress: Progress is the process of gradually improving or getting nearer to achieving or completing something (Oxford Advanced Learner’s Dictionary, 2013). The progress of a situation or action is the way in which it develops. Based on the results of the study, the progress of students’ familiarity using blended learning can be categorized into high. Because, using blended learning helped them to learn and increase their knowledge and gave their facilitate to meet those learning goals. From the results of research that has been done, the interest and knowledge of students in learning English using blended learning at English Education Department in Universitas Lancang Kuning can be categorized into high. Refers to the previous research from Ja’ashan (2015). “Perceptions and Attitudes towards Blended Learning for English Courses: A Case Study of Students at University of Bisha.” The results conducted a survey through a questionnaire at University of Bisha, English department from eight levels of undergraduate program in both boys and girls colleges. This study also concluded that blended learning is as effective as face to face learning in developing and improving knowledge and skills. Then, refers to the previous research by Eryilmaz (2015). “The Effectiveness of Blended Learning Environments.” Further, mentioned that. “The study was applied to 110 students who attend to Atilim University, Ankara, Turkey and take Introduction to Computers Course and the results of the analysis, showed a significant difference between students’ view in relation with The journal of Ultimate Research and Trends in Education Available online at: http://ojs.journal.unilak.ac.id/index.php/utamax Vol. 2, No. 2, July 2020, pp. 80-87 86 blended learning environment as well as online and face to face learning environments. In their answers, students have expressed that they learned more effectively in a blended learning environment.”. Therefore, referring to the presentation and analysis of the research data above, the finding of the whole participants (27 students) led the researcher to infer that the students’ interest and knowledge in blended learning context at English Education Department in Universitas Lancang Kuning into high categorized.
