Role of Flipped Class in Developing Self-Regulated Learning of ESL Students at Undergraduate Level in Pakistan

Flipped learning is the inverted classroom method, which introduces the lesson at home and encourages practise as well as other already-introduced lesson-based activities inside the classroom for practical purposes. Students can use their self-regulated learning strategies to continue with their respective content learning. In the current research, undergraduate learners of a public sector university in Pakistan are enrolled in a "short reading comprehension course" and are classified into the control and experimental groups following the research questions. Data were accumulated quantitatively with the help of two questionnaires evaluating learners’ satisfaction with the flipped experiment as well as the effect of the flipped method on developing self-regulated learning strategies. Flipped group learners, on the whole, exhibited satisfactory attitudes towards implementing the flipped method. The current study will aid future researchers using the flipped method in navigating the additional dimensions and models featuring self-regulated learning (SRL) strategies, along with incorporating the SRL-based model into the flipped method to analyse the results.
