The Effect of the Flipped Classroom on Learning Process: A Literature Review

Abstract

Many of the recent studies have focused on the Flipped classroom as an instructional strategy. The massive practice of technology by digital natives offers opportunities to provide educational environments that cover the possibility of learning efficiently. Numerous studies have currently conducted concentrated on the flipped classroom (flipped instruction) and its effects on learning. However, teachers and learners are not familiar with the flipped classroom. Therefore, teachers and learners still have restrictions to change the traditional method of teaching to the flipped instruction. Teachers’ rejection, worry and unwilling to implement the flipped classroom could be illustrated through the following aspects: first, teachers’ lack of knowledge about the flipped classroom and the implementation of the flipped classroom. Second, teachers’ lack of information about the empirical studies of the effect of flipped learning on the learning process. Therefore, the current study aims to define and illustrate the features, implementation, advantages, and disadvantages of the flipped classroom to familiarize teachers and students with the flipped classroom method. Besides, the second aim of the study is to demonstrate and compare some empirical studies of the effect of the flipped classroom on learning environment so as to display the influence of the flipped classroom on the learning process and remove teachers’ doubt about the outcome of implementing flipped classroom in the classes. Based on the explanation of the previous studies, it could be concluded that the flipped classroom is an effective and positive teaching and learning method which is appropriate to the current educational system, and the teachers need to be aware of the effect and implementation of the flipped classroom in order to change the traditional method of teaching to the flipped learning model, and have efficient knowledge about implementing the flipped teaching method effectively.

An Introduction to Behaviourism, Innatism and Interactionism Theories of Language Acquisition: Literature Review

“…However, traditional method of teaching is not sufficient in isolation in teaching and learning process. Teaching and learning process requires the recent teaching methods, including blended learning the flipped classroom which is considered as effective method to the existing digital age and digital natives comparing to the traditional method of teaching (Hussein, Raouf & Paulmony, 2019). Moreover, this study aims to identify and investigate the merits and demerits of the language theories in the field of second language acquisition.…”
