Learning in the 21st century: the flipped foreign language classroom

Abstract

This qualitative action research sought to add on the understanding of student achievement in one flipped foreign language classroom. In order to do this, the researcher compared learning outcomes from a flipped foreign language classroom and from a traditional foreign language classroom. The collected data was analysed by using qualitative analysis methods.The results suggested that the student achievement was higher for the student group that was instructed through the flipped classroom model than the other student group that was instructed through the traditional model.
