flipped model of instruction in the eSL classroom: literature review
"Keep in mind that flipping the classroom is not the delivery of a lecture on video. A video of a boring lecture is a boring video that doesn’t enhance the learning experience.” - Sebastian Gluzman
The initial impetus for the present paper is to examine the literature related to the possibilities of flipped learning in the ESL classroom. Search terms identified six papers reporting the empirical evidence on the impact and learning outcomes of the flipped classroom model applied to ESL settings. Despite differences among the studies, student perceptions are relatively consistent. The findings revealed positive changes in students’ achievements and motivation; however, two studies found that some students still prefer teachers’ explanations in-class. The methodological limitations used in the included papers as well as recommendations for further work in this filed are discussed.

"Salman Khan talks about how and why he created the remarkable Khan Academy, a carefully structured series of educational videos offering complete curricula in math and, now, other subjects. He shows the power of interactive exercises, and calls for teachers to consider flipping the traditional classroom script -- give students video lectures to watch at home, and do "homework" in the classroom with the teacher available to help."
"So you want to flip your class? In this how to video I explain the idea behind flipping, some things to think about as you begin and some concrete steps to getting your first lecture video up on the internets."

"Clintondale High, just outside of Detroit, is the nation's first completely flipped school, meaning teachers record lectures for students to watch online outside of class; and what was once considered homework is now done in class, allowing students to work through assignments together and ask teachers for help if they run into questions."
