The Effect of Layered Flipped Learning Model on Academic Success
Abstract
The purpose of this study is to determine how students’ academic achievement in English lessons improved when the layered flipped learning model is used in these lessons and what the students' views about the tasks chosen and performed within the scope of this model are. One of the qualitative research methods, the ‘action research’ method was used in this research. The research was conducted with the fifth grade of a secondary school in the West Black Sea region of Turkey in the 2017/2018 academic year. In the research process, readiness test, achievement test, focus group interview, task evaluation form, reflective daily form-course video recordings were used as data collection tools. The data obtained from the focus group interview at the end of the action plans were analyzed using the content analysis method. The readiness test and the achievement tests were tabulated separately to show the development of each student in the process and the class averages. According to the results of the research, it was seen that the layered flipped learning model had a positive effect on students' academic achievement and that their academic achievement increased gradually in all of their reading, listening and speaking skills. According to the results of the research, a number of suggestions were made.
