A systematic review of flipped classroom studies in Turkish education

Abstract

The purpose of this systematic review is to investigate the flipped classroom (FC) studies conducted in Turkey. The review reported on 38 studies- 27 research articles, 9 master’s theses and 2 PhD dissertations- published from 2014 till 2017 in ERIC, Science Direct, Web of Science, ULAKBIM, EBSCOhost, JSTOR, CoHE, and DOAJ. The results showed FC related studies conducted in Turkey have four major focuses: achievement, attitudes, motivation and perspectives of the students in FC and traditional classrooms. As a results, the majority of the studies concluded that students taught in FC increased their achievement, are reported to be more motivated, and developed positive attitudes.
