“…A great amount of attention is paid to improve the writing skills of the learners, to enable them to reach a requisite proficiency level in written communication in the Turkish Cypriot context (Ekmekçi, 2017 ). In general, teaching writing in the EFL context is regarded as a challenging task, as it is not easy to form, organize and interpret the thoughts through meaningful messages (Al-Shaer, 2014 ; Suyanto, 2015 ; Febrijanto, 2016 ; Ningrum et al, 2016 ; Koura and Zahran, 2017 ). Nonetheless, there are a great deal of issues in EFL writing lectures, specifically in the North Cyprus context (Afrilyasanti et al, 2016 ; Koura and Zahran, 2017 ; Dimililer and Kurt, 2019 ).…”

Flipped learning models are considered as important elements of English as a foreign language (EFL) writing courses in order to advance the EFL learners' writing skills. Significantly, studies examining the efficacy of in-class and out-of-class writing models in flipped classroom settings when teaching online EFL writing courses are still of focus in the Turkish Cypriot context. This investigation aimed to examine the most efficient flipped learning model among the in-class vs. out-of-class writing models for the purpose of helping instructors to advance their EFL learners' writing achievement in an online writing setting. In addition, this study sorted to reveal the EFL learners' perceptions toward learning writing through in-class and out-of-class flipped learning writing models. A mixed methods research design was applied to achieve the aforementioned aims. Twenty-eight EFL learners studying at a private university's English Language Teaching department constituted the participants of this study. As the findings pointed out, the EFL learners in group A who wrote their essays in-class outperformed those in group B, who wrote their essays out-of-class. Moreover, it was found that the majority of the participants had more positive perceptions toward the in-class flipped classroom writing model. This study highlights that, better learner performances are achieved when the learners write during the class session online with the support of the instructor when implementing a flipped classroom model to teach EFL writing.

“…Nowadays, EFL students have an inadequate performance in the writing process in the Turkish Cyprus context (Agustina & Nur, 2018;Dimililer & Kurt, 2019). Although writing is announced as the most essential piece of the courses, it is not easy to teach writing in the EFL Turkish Cypriot contexts as it is challenging to plan, produce, arrange, and deliver the thoughts through expressive messages (Al-Shaer, 2014;Dimililer & Kurt, 2019;Febrijanto, 2016;Koura & Zahran, 2017;Suyanto, 2015).…”
