Abstract

Along with the extension of international relations in Mongolia in recent years, the number of international students and researchers who aim to study the Mongolian language and culture has increased. A flipped classroom is a potential method in various educational fields including second language teaching. Therefore, a flipped classroom was adopted as a pedagogical method for Mongolian language teaching. Data were collected during a 16-week flipped classroom teaching of Mongolian Grammar II intermediate level course which was conducted with total enrolment of 20 international graduate students (12 females and 8 males). To assess efficiency of the course, reading and writing skills of each student were comparatively assessed through standardized testing in three phases. Based on single factor ANOVA, reading skill (P = 0,02), and writing skill (P = 0,004) were significantly improved. The Tukey-kramer test was being used for a critical range of writing (6.3), reading ability (7,1) leading to 18,5% of improvements to occur between beginning, middle and after classes. Even though the reading section has had downfall during class, ther final estimation showed 10.15% achievements meaning a significant statistical difference. Extensive reading technique for reading competency was assessed at each level with follow-up questions. As 30% (n = 6) for level 1–2, 60% (n = 12) for level 3–4 and 70% (n = 14) for level 5 were able to answer, we can infer from these task results that the students can be easily defined as intermediate level users of Mongolian language.
