In the past few years, blended learning has become more and more rapidly spread in the field of education worldwide. The idea of blended learning seems attractive because it allows for the preservation of the traditional forms of education resulting from accumulated pedagogical experience for centuries and we could altogether use the various educational functions of new technologies. The methodology developed by the author introduces a key subsystem from the integrated management information system of Veliko Tarnovo University, namely the ‘E-University’ subsystem. On the base of own experience and the analyzed research, there is an opportunity to use different media, individualize the learning process, opportunity to use different styles of learning, organizing joint learning activities. The successful application of this approach together with the organization of education and the quality of the virtual environment require the presence of the human factor which is able to combine different types of learning environments in order to provoke students to perform various types of activities and develop their potential abilities and talents in the future.
