Can a Small Private Online Course (SPOC) Be a Viable Solution for Teaching English?

Summary/Abstract: The article looks at the process of designing a language SPOC (Small Private Online Course) for second- and third-year students from the West University of Timisoara (WUT), Romania, who chose Learning English with Technology (LET) as Transversal Discipline. The course recommends ways of using free online tools for practicing English grammar and lexical items. After running the pilot course, we requested the students’ feedback to find out how they evaluated their progress and what we still needed to work on in order to adapt the course to the Transversal Disciplines curricula and thus ensure sustainability of SPOCs at WUT.
