Examining the Effect of Flipped Learning on Proficiency in English Writing Grammar via Inflectional Morphemes

Abstract

The study aimed to understand the underlying effects of flipped learning on students’ English as Foreign Language (EFL) writing skill. For this study, proficiency of writing knacks of EFL has been examined mainly by using inflection morphemes based on experimental research work. Two sets of intact classes were chosen as participants for this research study. These classes were randomly assigned to different groups, namely control group and experimental group, with a total sample size of 126 EFL students. During the eight-week time, the control group (a non-flipped learning) and the Experimental Group (a flipped learning) were taught traditional writing instructions and flipped learning, respectively. The inflectional morphemes were used in three phases: pre-, mid, and post-test. The test named Repeated Measure Analysis of Variance (RM-ANOVA) was used to analyze data. The research findings show that the flipped learning students have outnumbered their counterparts, i.e., non-flipped learning, in terms of EFL students’ language writing proficiency development for inflectional morphemes. The research findings have proposed some general recommendations on EFL writing instructions for decision-makers, academia, and other interest groups.
