“…Flexible environment is the first aspect of a successful flipped learning organisation. The essence of this pillar is to offer students a great opportunity to flexibly rearrange the learning space according to individuals' preferences (Zainuudin & Halii, 2016;Nwosisi et al, 2016;Petrosyan & Grishechko, 2021). Demirel (2016) found that this flexibility creates a stress-free environment for both students and teachers and conclude that learners are not placed in traditional learning environments (such as lecture theatres), but rather they are allowed to individually adjust the environment according to the task in hand.…”

Focussing on a particular Swiss Hotel School, this research evaluates the student acceptance and overall effectiveness of the flipped classroom approach. The paper aims to evaluate the preference of adopting such an approach as the main teaching method for a range of undergraduate and postgraduate hospitality focused programmes and develop an understanding of students' awareness of the flipped method. Adopting a quantitative approach, 167 students took part in this study and specifically provided their perspectives of the flipped classroom approach, compared it with a more traditional teaching method and identified the benefits and drawbacks of flipped learning. The findings of the study suggest that students appreciate the reversed classroom as it appears that learners felt safe, engage, and motivated in a student-oriented environment under the guidance of a teacher. However, respondents also highlighted the importance of appropriate guidance and facilitation of the flipped classroom as well as recognising the additional engagement in material prior to attending class.

“…The purely mnemonic approach to a foreign language has long been shown to be inadequate, and although it is generally considered outdated, it unfortunately tends to persist when dealing with specialised languages. In order to overcome this trend, to break down the emotional filter and to achieve better and lasting learning results, teachers today have at their disposal, thanks to new media, devices and platforms (Petrosyan & Grishechko, 2021). Three of them seem particularly relevant to us and fruitful to be applied to the learning process of foreign languages in an integrated way: podcasts, TV series, and the literary text (which use has to be reconsidered on the basis of the new pedagogical theories).…”

Learning foreign languages and professional communication at intermediate to advanced levels present some peculiar aspects and difficulties. They are mostly related to the fact that there is an initial stumbling block due to a certain prejudice on the part of the learners themselves, who perceive the professional communication language as something foreign, 'other' and extremely complex compared to the language they have learned up to that point. This leads them, as naturally as unconsciously, to raise an additional emotional filter that further complicates the learning process and the acquisition of new terms and phrases. For this reason, students often learn by heart, and with no connection (or with a very limited connection) with the real context of use and application the vocabulary and expressions related to professional communication field. This purely mnemonic approach in learning a foreign language has long been shown to be inadequate, and although it is generally considered outdated, it tends to persist when dealing with specialised languages. In order to overcome this, teachers today have three instruments at their disposal that seem particularly relevant to us: literary texts, TV series and podcasts. The aim of this article is to investigate how to deal with them so to reach the best educational outcome.
