Abstract

In a variety of educational contexts, flipped classrooms have gained popularity as a pedagogical strategy due to the increased interest in active learning strategies. This meta-analysis investigates the effect of flipped classroom model on writing skills. A comprehensive search of academic databases, including Google Scholar, Scopus, and ERIC, was conducted for research published between 2020 and 2023. The analysis focused on studies employing experimental or quasi-experimental designs that met the inclusion criteria for teaching writing through the flipped classroom paradigm. Ultimately, 10 studies were selected, encompassing a total sample size of over 805 students. The findings indicate that the majority of these studies report consistent positive outcomes, thereby supporting the effectiveness of the flipped classroom approach in enhancing writing achievement. This evidence underscores the potential of flipped instruction to foster improved writing skills among students across diverse educational settings. © 2026 Authors.
