Abstract

In this study, a Socratic Collaborative Inverted/Flipped teaching scenario was designed and tested for one semester. Undergraduate students (N = 12) attended a course on vocabulary teaching strategies and their perceptions to it were measured through a questionnaire created for this purpose, before and after the experimental treatment. Participants’ reactions to clarity of instructions and scenario were positive, suited to their English language level, and statistically correlated to orientation instructions usefulness before the implementation of the course.
