Enhancing Summary Writing Skills through Flipped Classroom

Abstract

This chapter examines how a flipped classroom approach can be implemented to enhance students' summary writing skills. In a flipped model for summary writing instruction, video lectures are used to introduce key concepts and strategies for summarization. This frees up class time for interactive activities where students collaboratively apply summarization techniques, provide peer feedback, and receive guidance from the instructor. Assessing student growth over multiple summaries of increasing complexity can evaluate the effectiveness of the flipped approach in developing this important academic and workplace competency.
