Abstract EN

The flipped classroom is considered as an academic trend worldwide.

Despite its growing popularity, this area of research remains unsettled in Jordan as very few studies were devoted to this model.

Hence, the study at hand sets out to investigate the perceptions of parents following the implementation of a flipped classroom model in the EFL reading classroom (Grade 10) in Zarqa Directorate of Education, Jordan.

A questionnaires was developed and distributed to (51) parents by the end of the second academic semester of the year 2018/2019.

Results showed that parents were positively influenced by their children’s feedback after experiencing each flipped course as well as their improved post-test scores.

The majority of parents reported positive perceptions towards the implementation of the flipped classroom model cited a wide-ranging list of merits.
