Abstract :The aim of this study is to explore students’ perceptions on flipped classroom (FC) approach, in which the role of school work and out-of-class content are reversed, in writing lessons in contrast to conventional teaching in accordance with an Action Research project. To achieve this, a 13-week plan was designed to provide students with multimedia tools in writing lessons. Data were collected from students’ regular self-reflections, teacher’s observational field notes and a final student survey. Overall, the majority of the students reflected positive feelings towards the method. On the other hand, the final survey results showed that they rated this experience neutral mostly.
