This pre-test post-test quasi-experimental study was grounded in a mixed method embedded design to delve into the quality and efficiency of flipped classroom model in enhancing university prep students’ overall academic performance in EFL and that in its sub-skills in addition to the durability of that performance. The study has also pioneered to reveal the impact of gender on flipped classroom EFL learners’ post-test scores. Quantitative data was gathered through the administration of EFL Achievement Test to 41 EFL students enrolled at Foreign Language School, Gebze Technical University in two different classrooms randomly assigned as experimental (N= 21) and control group (N=20). The intervention lasted during the whole 2016-2017 fall term. On the other hand, qualitative data was collected through follow-up semi-controlled interviews with 9 experiment group students from different achievement groups. All the quantitative data was analyzed using Statistical Packages for Social Sciences (SPSS) 21 for Windows and ITEMAN4 while qualitative data was analyzed manually by employing content analysis procedures. The results of the study revealed flipped classroom model as a significant facilitator of EFL performance and long-term retention of this performance at universities in Turkey. More specifically, students in flipped classroom significantly outperformed those in the traditional lecture based classroom in all skill areas except for listening. Furthermore, qualitative results supported this impact of flipped classroom model on EFL performance. As a unique aspect of the study, EFL students’ performance in the flipped classroom was explored to be independent of their gender. To conclude, he present study has promised a bulk of valuable results that set flipping EFL classrooms as an efficient way of dealing with failure in EFL in Turkey.

Implementation of Flipped Education into Turkish EFL Teaching Context2017 •
This study aims to search for the effect of Flipped Classroom/Education (FC) on academic success and retention of knowledge in English teaching. Research includes two groups studying at compulsory English preparation class in 2013-2014 academic year and each group stands as control and experiment group once in two applications. The research employs a quasi-experimental method with a pre-post test control group design. The tests that were developed by the researcher were used to collect the quantitative data. Focus group interviews were carried out in order to collect personal opinions of students about FC and descriptive analysis were done on collected data. The test scores of experiment groups taught through FC in both applications are higher than the control groups taught through Traditional Education (TE) method and the difference is statistically significant. The rate of the positive comments on FC is %73.77 while the rate of negative comments is 17.39%.
In this paper, the authors discuss the findings of a quasi-experimental study of the flipped learning approach in an EFL environment. The authors investigated the composition-writing proficiency of two groups of Japanese university students (n = 38). The teacher of one of these groups had had much experience teaching with the flipped learning model, whereas the other teacher had had no experience. The first aim of the study was to discover if improvements in writing proficiency could be observed within each group. The results indicated that statistically significant improvements were seen both for students studying under a teacher with experience conducting flipped classrooms, t(16) = 4.80, p < .001, d = 1.27, and a teacher without flipped classroom experience, t(20) = 7.73, p < .001, d = 1.61. The second aim of the study was to investigate whether any differences in improvement between the two groups occurred. The results suggested that students in both groups improved at similar degrees: F(1, 36) = .087, p = .77. These results suggest that regardless of a teacher's experience with the flipped learning approach, it appears to be a successful way of teaching in EFL environments. The authors conclude that, regardless of the teacher's experience with the model, the flipped learning approach is an ideal way to increase the amount of individual coaching possible in the classroom, bringing about more efficient learning.

Innovative mobile-based tools have made new opportunities for learners to spend more quality time inside the classrooms. Keeping this in mind, the present study sought to examine the effect of the flipped classroom on developing EFL learners’ speaking and listening skills. To do so, 60 EFL students from two universities in Iran were assigned into one of the classes of flipped and conventional groups. Telegram app was used as the online platform for the flipped group's participants through which the listening materials, including Ted-talk videos and students' book's videos were posted prior to the class, and the speaking activities were done via open discussion forums in the Telegram group. To elicit the required data, multiple sources of data collection, including an Oxford Placement Test (OPT), a listening test, a speaking test, a perception questionnaire, and a written self-report survey were used. Both quantitative and qualitative analyses were used to analyze the dat...

Indonesian EFL Students’ Perceptions on the Implementation of Flipped Classroom ModelThe flipped classroom model has gained popularity in education recently. In this model of learning, the students learn materials (e.g., by watching lectures through video) at home, and then they learn more actively in the school classroom. Although flipped classroom model has been popular, the implementation of flipped classroom in an English as a Foreign Language (EFL) context has not been widely published. This article reports results of research examining students’ perceptions on the implementation of the flipped classroom model. It involved 30 senior high school students who joined a writing class using flippled classroom model. Data were collected by using questionnaires, immediate interview and observations. The results of the research showed that the students found the activities applied in the flipped classroom model helped them write better. The videos they watched as well as teacher and peer feedback in their writing process improved their writing ability. This study also ...

Educational planning documents highlight the importance of differentiation of the learning process and improving individuals' competencies to fulfil complex tasks. By a flipped learning approach, when the students acquire the new information at home, watching the instructional video, more time is devoted to the active learning process in the classroom, as a result of which the students have the opportunity to improve their competencies. Within this article's framework, a case study's data on using a flipped learning approach in teaching elementary school students are analysed. The study included fourteen 4th grade English as first foreign language students of Liepaja Centre primary school. The study was conducted in 2020 from 30 October till 27 November. The study's main objective is to analyse possibilities to differentiate the learning process according to students' individual needs and improve competencies using a flipped learning approach. The study found tha...

A Review of Flipped Learning in EFL Classes2016 •
'Flipped Learning' as popularized by Jonathan Bergmann and Aaron Sams (2012) is a growing pedagogical trend that is widely and globally adopted by educators to further enhance their teaching practices. Simply put, flipped learning is a strategy which deviates from the traditional classroom timing and environment where recorded video lectures are provided to students in advance while classroom exercises such as class discussions, debates, formative tests and the like are done under close supervision of the teacher. This study aims to seek and investigate related researches proving flipped learning strategy's adaptability and address evidences demonstrating satisfactory outcomes of classes-particularly EFL classes-which have implemented this pedagogy. The review involves 6 studies on flipped classrooms taken from Academia.edu and Google Scholar from 2015 to 2016. Findings revealed that students' outcome increased and their perceptions were positive after teachers flipped their classes. The implication is for teachers to flip their EFL classes to differentiate their instruction and to improve their students' outcome.

The Implementation of Flipped Classroom in Efl Class: A Taiwan Case Study2019 •
This article reports on a case study designed to examine the implementation of flipped classroom in the EFL classroom in Taiwan. In addition, students’ perception of flipped classroom was also investigated. Sixty-one senior high school students participated in this study; data were gathered from students’ English midterm exam score and questionnaire. The data then were quantitatively analyzed by using T-test and descriptive statistics. The results show that students’ English proficiency in flipped classroom was not significantly different with students in traditional classroom. However, the results reveal that students’ perception of flipped classroom were generally favorable. Students’ contended that flipped classroom enhanced their motivation in learning English, as they liked the self-pace through the course and they stated that flipped classroom gave them more class time to practice English. The results presented here may facilitate improvements in the implementation of flipped...
In this paper, the author discusses the implementation of the flipped learning model into a university EFL class focused on improving students' language proficiency, in particular speaking skills, in addition to increasing their knowledge of ways of living and thinking in foreign cultures. The study investigated the effects flipped learning had on students' listening and reading proficiency (measured independently by TOEIC scores) and linguistic self-confidence (measured by self-reported proficiency levels according to the CEFR-J Can-do List). Based on statistical comparisons of participants' proficiency, measured both independently and self-perceived, before and after the course, the results suggested flipped learning to be beneficial for improving students' listening skills in both TOEIC scores (t(23) = 2.60, p = .016, d = .483) and self-perceived ability (t(26) = 2.80, p = .009, d = .562). Significant increases were also observed in the confidence of these learners to produce language through speaking (t(26) = 3.26, p = .003, d = .675) and writing (t(26) = 3.60, p = .001, d = .637) in English. Considering the favorable results of the statistical analyses and feedback from participating students, the author concludes that the flipped learning method is indeed effective for foreign language instruction.

Progression of Pro23His Retinopathy in a Miniature Swine Model of Retinitis Pigmentosa2017 •
We characterize the progression of retinopathy in Filial 1 (F1) progeny of a transgenic (Tg) founder miniswine exhibiting severe Pro23His (P23H) retinopathy. The F1 TgP23H miniswine progeny were created by crossing TgP23H founder miniswine 53-1 with wild type (WT) inbred miniature swine. Scotopic (rod-driven) and photopic (cone-driven) retinal functions were evaluated in F1 TgP23H and WT littermates using full field electroretinograms (ffERGs) at 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 12, and 18 months of age, as well as the Tg founder miniswine at 6 years of age. Miniswine were euthanized and their retinas processed for morphologic evaluation at the light and electron microscopic level. Retinal morphology of a 36-month-old Tg miniswine also was examined. Wild type littermates reached mature scotopic and photopic retinal function by 3 months, while TgP23H miniswine showed abnormal scotopic ffERGs at the earliest time point, 1 month, and depressed photopic ffERGs after 2 months. Rod and cone photoreceptors ...
