description | In this paper, we explore the application of a newly introduced ePUB3 eBook technique on the flipped learning of writing courses and hence present a flipped lesson design process that specifies the lesson plan and curricular contents with ePUB3 functions used in learning activities for delivering desired contents. For illustration, the process is practically applied on the ‘Abstract Writing’ unit of a Chinese ‘Application Writing’ course in a local university. For assessment, a quasi-experimental study on the control analysis of experimental and control groups and its accompanied questionnaires and interviews is conduced to verify the effectiveness and students’ favors of applying flipped learning and ePUB3 eBooks on the academic Chinese ‘Application Writing’ courses. The research results show that the proposed design process for writing courses, through the application of flipped learning and ePUB3 eBooks, can improve the effectiveness of students' learning in abstract writing. Further, students also advocate using this approach in their learning. |
