Abstract

It’s one of the most important elements that the design of pre-class tasks is scientific or not and students could finish the acquisition of knowledge before class or not, which decides whether the flipped classroom model succeeds or not. The paper points out the essential differences between previews of traditional teaching and pre-task tasks of flipped classrooms. And it also gives deep analysis and research on the elements, methods of flipped classrooms. Moreover, using a specific case, it demonstrates how to design college English pre-class tasks based on flipped classrooms. All of these will promote the application research of flipped classrooms in the college English practice teaching.
