Modern approach to teaching requires the lecturer to be able to integrate technology, pedagogy and content (Dudeney jt 2013). By the mid-1990s globalization started placing greater linguistic demands on education. Integrated learning is increasingly viewed as a modern form of educational delivery designed to even better equip the learner with knowledge and skills suitable for the global age. (Mehisto et al. 2010).

In Tallinn Health Care College, students of the Nursing Curriculum graduate by writing and defending their final thesis. Research Methodology is a module that has been created to teach students to use evidence-based information in developing one’s profession, to develop knowledge about aims and principles of research in nursing science and about theoretical and practical skills in writing a research paper.

Blended learning tools offer learners the possibility to choose the time and the place to study; in essence, it is combining face-to-face learning with technology-based studies. In the Research Module grammar exercises are accessible online, to develop lexis, various broadcasts, thematic videos from Youtube, etc. are used. Online databases (Ebsco, BioMed Central, etc.) are used to write academic reports and to compile presentations. Exploring keywords, online professional dictionaries are time-saving and effective components to gain a deeper knowledge of the word. The module is passed when students present their report and get positive feedback from speciality and language lecturers.
