Abstract
The intention of this chapter is to demonstrate the implementation of the innovative instructional i2Flex methodology in Elementary School, Middle School, and High School classes for young EFL, ESL, and Foreign Language learners. Within a conceptual framework consisting of the ACS educational philosophy, reference features of foreign language teaching and the terminological definition of i2Flex, the three authors will outline a detailed explanation of their methodological and educational procedures, translating the i2Flex into practice in their foreign language classes. In a common conclusion of the three study cases, the authors will critically evaluate their experiences in their classrooms and the learning outcomes. They will then give insights and recommendations on how to consolidate the mutual symbiosis between face-to-face and flexible guided student learning supported by technology, guided towards independent and inquiry based student learning, in order to create a long-term, meaningful, academic blended learning in accordance to the i2Flex methodology and practice.
