Abstract

The purpose of this chapter is to prepare teachers of English as a Second Language (ESL) to utilize flipped models of instruction to better prepare their students in content subjects. This chapter is relevant to educators, school districts, administrators, colleges, and universities. Flipped instruction enables students to engage in more critical thinking skills, while instructors guide their learning. Flipping instruction uses students' input and thought processes as opposed to the direct lectures. The flipped instruction uses technology, which has great potential to hold student's attention, while at the same time building critical thinking processes. Case studies of showing the success flipped instruction are available; however, there is a scarcity of flipped instruction research in the ESL classroom. ESL Computer Assisted Language Learning (CALL) affords students opportunities to explain, question, and develop their language skills as well as their own thinking.
