Summary/Abstract: Nowadays the teaching-learning process has to meet the needs of digital natives. Hence, the traditional teaching methods are no longer an option and every foreign language instructor could benefit from using blended learning for their classes. One good example is constituted by the ClipFlair platform which enhances the students’ motivation, interest and cognitive engagement in learning a foreign language. This paper aims to present the advantages of using different platforms, audio-visual materials and it will provide an in-depth presentation of a new platform, the ClipFlair platform, which is an up-to-date tool containing plurilinguistic resources and allowing interactivity and collaboration among its users. We will focus mainly on its use for teaching Romanian as a foreign language, extracting relevant examples.
