 Hello everyone!  This post will be about creating a grammar teaching video for a flipped EFL classroom that our lecturer gave us as a task. For this task,  Buse  and I worked together. That's why I’m going to talk about my experiences while doing this. A flipped classroom is an educational approach that tries to improve student engagement and learning by having students complete readings at their homes and concentrate on interactive problem-solving throughout class hours. Students can select when, how, and where they want to examine instructional materials prior to lessons in a flipped classroom; accountability moves from teachers to students, creating a student-centered educational process.

For instance: it improves academic performance & learning motivation, and allows teachers to have more time to guide students and give them differentiated feedback.

We created all of th...
