Our flipped-classroom model was constructed with three phases, including pre-class, in-class, and after-class. The research methodology was separated into two stages: The main stage incorporates a literature review to establish the learning process model, while the second stage includes an expert's assessment of the learning model's suitability. Experts strongly agree with this learning model. We intend to use our model to help teach- ers prepare and conduct learning activities to enhance undergraduate students' research skills. Keywords—Flipped classroom, blended learning, critical inquiry, research skill 1 Introduction Research skills are critical and essential for twenty-first-century learning [1]. They concern graduates who need a set of skills to manage various real-life situations, espe- cially critical thinking, creative problem solving, information management, and lifelong learning skills. Developing a research process or concept is difficult for students. Dur- muşçelebi [2] revealed that the factors that affect students’ interests and confidence when conducting research are the students’ academic motivation, research issues, re- search competency, and an impressive instructional design that encourages student con- fidence and promotes enjoyment in terms of the topic. Therefore, this is a challenge for teachers. It is not only about teaching students to think about research problems and how to solve them, but also about developing various skills and knowledge. Traditional learning approaches that focus on the teacher as the center of knowledge have been reduced in importance. Instead, there has been a shift to Web 2.0 technology as it allows students to study everywhere, even outside the classroom [3]. Moreover, students learn to use technology from kindergarten to university. As a result, instruc- tional design has been widely used to integrate various ICT types into teaching [4]. Therefore, in learning in this era, students are expected to work together and inde- pendently before entering the classroom, using various technologies. 70 http://www.i-jim.org https://doi.org/10.3991/ijim.v15i03.17905 mailto:ksirivaj@mail.wu.ac.th Paper—A Development of the Flipped Learning Model Using the Critical Inquiry Process to Enhance… As a teaching approach for higher education, the flipped classroom's usefulness has been widely applied [3,5,6]. Achievement in a flipped classroom focuses on student comprehension, with hands-on activities rather than listening to lectures [7]. Besides, the flipped classroom encourages students to create a learning community and share ideas to solve issues and increase student interaction [8]. However, using flipped class- room teaching methods may make it challenging to motivate students to study for les- sons beforehand, which may differ in each subject. To answer the above questions, we initially investigate how we can develop research skills for undergraduate students by using flipped classroom instruction methods integrated with the critical inquiry concept. Several researchers have published work on implementing inquiry-based instruction features within a flipped classroom instructional context [9–11]. However, there is still no research that deals with applying critical inquiry techniques and flipped classrooms in research skill development for undergraduate students. Consequently, this is an ex- citing challenge. In this research, we investigate the suitable learning model with experts for enhanc- ing research skills. The rest of the paper is organized as follows: In section 2, we briefly review the literature on flipped classrooms, the critical inquiry method, and research skills. Sections 4 describes a model and combines the results of the individual stages following research questions. The paper closes with a discussion and conclusions re- garding the results. Two research questions include: • RQ1: How is the flipped classroom integrated with the critical inquiry (FCCI) learn- ing approach to improve students' research skills? • RQ2: What are experts' opinions on the FCCI learning model to improve student research skills? 2 Literature Review 2.1 Flipped classrooms The flipped classroom, also known as the 'inverted classroom,' is an educational management concept that enables students to learn and acquire information inde- pendently, outside the classroom, through video or other media prepared by their teach- ers. When students come to the classroom, teachers review their knowledge and under- standing of the exercise or practice [12]. The most crucial thing regarding using this method is the combination of traditional learning approaches with an information-based teaching model that uses comprehensive information technology and online teaching resources, including pre-prepared teaching videos and external resources on various platforms for the student, which they can access by themselves. The instructor serves as a facilitator to promote and provide guidance [13]. Consequently, the flipped class- room approach has been widely used in recent years because it can empower students to generate information based on their own experience, creating meaningful learning. iJIM ‒ Vol. 15, No. 03, 2021 71 Paper—A Development of the Flipped Learning Model Using the Critical Inquiry Process to Enhance… 2.2 Critical inquiry learning Critical inquiry is a concept that was founded with the integration of the inquiry- based learning method and critical theory [14]. This term 'critical inquiry' was first mentioned by Sirotnik [15]. This includes using personal thinking, debate, decision making, practice and assessment, scientific evidence-based analysis, interpretation, and review [16]. Critical inquiry techniques help develop reasoning ability and logical thinking in question-asking skills to encourage students to develop a strategic thinking process for their question-formulating processes [17]. These involve thinking about the information and thinking about thinking, such as 'Is this idea correct?', supporting rea- sons, 'how to get this idea,' and question types. These encourage students to think about and review a situation until they realize the results of their actions. They see that there are guidelines for using critical inquiry to help them and allow them to practice finding factors or sources of information about problems that have already occurred. It also develops students' critical thinking skills and allows them to practice understanding various contexts and related environments. In this research, we revised critical inquiry techniques, mainly based on Kae- ophanuek et al.’s [18] research, and synthesized other research to design an appropriate technique for flipped classroom teaching research methods skill development. We did this by adding a presentation step to present what they had been researching in various ways [19–23]. The six steps are as follows: 1. Question Posting: The process of encouraging thinking, questioning, related prob- lem identification, and finding an approach to obtain solutions. Students may link this with past learning experiences in order to try to understand a situation and related contexts. The questions should apply to daily life or challenge the ability and curi- osity of the students. This keeps them interested and focusing on what is being stud- ied, making assumptions, defining potential solutions, observing, gathering data, preparing for exploration and implementation, summarising the references, and providing evidence for a conclusion. 2. Data Collection: This is the exploration, observation, and investigation of facts ob- tained from various sources. Many possible solutions are depending on the student's experience and learning process. 3. Analysis: This involves summarising, thinking, analyzing, and categorizing the data collected. Then, there is a need to interpret the information and synthesize the knowledge obtained; this may or may not be supported by the assumptions. Students share what they have learned, strengthening, and developing their knowledge of the concepts involved and increasing their collaboration skills. 4. Discussion: This is the process that lets the students confirm their findings and pro- ceed to deepen their discovered knowledge. The students link this knowledge with their previous knowledge or deepen it in order to find an explanation for other related situations. They can work with observations to create knowledge when they collab- orate with others. 5. Presentation: This is the process that lets the students summarise the knowledge discovered in the previous steps and organize and present their concepts in various ways to communicate with an audience and further develop their understanding. 72 http://www.i-jim.org Paper—A Development of the Flipped Learning Model Using the Critical Inquiry Process to Enhance… 6. Reflection: This is the process of reviewing the learning process to recognize and practice thinking, analyzing, and developing their learning process. Students under- stand and learn from experience and learn to improve themselves continually. Re- ceiving feedback enables them to engage in self-assessment concerning various learning processes they have been involved in, leading to applying their knowledge in other subjects and solving problems creatively. 2.3 Research skills Research skills focus on a set of abilities related to conducting research, from the strategies and instruments needed to the resources required and the interpretation of information value. Therefore, if students possess these abilities, it is easier for them to apply their knowledge to everyday life and other subjects [24]. Our measurement of research skills was adopted from Willison & O'Regan [25]. The purpose of the research described in this paper is to develop the learning process model, in terms of the flipped classroom method, by applying thinking process devel- opment and research techniques and strategies from the critical inquiry concept to con- struct learning activities to develop the research skills of undergraduate students. 3 Methodology The research method has been split into the following phases. Phase 1: This step was taken in order to design the flipped-classroom learning pro- cess through critical inquiry to develop research skills, as follows: 1. Collect and synthesize documents related to the flipped classroom [26–29]. 2. Complete a literature review regarding the critical inquiry method published by Kae- ophanuek et al. [18,19–23] and apply the instructional design's learning activities. 3. Develop the new learning process, titled the flipped classroom integrated with criti- cal inquiry (FCCI), to enhance student research skills. Phase 2: The methods for determining the suitability of the critical inquiry learning process through the flipped classroom were as follows: 1. At this stage, the sample group consisted of seven experts holding doctoral degrees, employed as university lecturers, and with relevant experience of at least ten years. These experts consisted of three in research skills and four in educational technol- ogy, instructional design, flipped classrooms, and inquiry-based learning. 2. The instruments used in this phase were the in-depth interview and suitability as- sessment form. The instruments were verified content validity by three experts through the index of items objective congruence (IOC). The results indicate that all items can be used because they have a correct index between 0.66 and 1.00. It was found that the suitability of IOC was at 0.83. 3. Analyze the outcomes of assessing the suitability of the FCCI-based learning process to develop research skills by using the mean (�̅�) and standard deviation (S.D.) indi- cators related to the five-point Likert scale used to determine the suitability of the activity. iJIM ‒ Vol. 15, No. 03, 2021 73 Paper—A Development of the Flipped Learning Model Using the Critical Inquiry Process to Enhance… 4 Results To address two research questions, the findings of this study are as follows: • RQ1: How is the FCCI learning approach used to improve the research skills of stu- dents? • RQ2: What are the experts' opinions on the FCCI learning model to improve student research skills? 4.1 Steps to develop research skills in the FCCI learning model Preliminary findings: The researcher reviewed flipped classroom literature to syn- thesize and design learning processes using a critical inquiry technique for research skill advancement. The learning procedures were divided into three phases, adopting from the model previously proposed by Estes et al. [29], according to Figure 1, as fol- lows: Phase 1 – Pre-Class: The content delivery step, which consisted of the following steps: 1. Students explored content by themselves. This phase was performed at home before the in-class session. Students were supposed to watch educational video clips or other media. The duration of the videos on each topic was no more than 20 minutes. 2. Students made short notes individually about the teacher's topics by using an online learning platform such as Moodle, which the teacher created to facilitate learning. On this platform, students watch video lectures and complete the pre-class assign- ments. The teacher updates the students' assignments and verifies their progress on the Moodle platform's learning tasks in real-time. There are channels for communi- cation through Moodle, such as chat rooms and discussion boards, by which students interact and address issues with each other to fix any problems or ask the instructor questions. 3. Students must answer questions about what they learned before attending the class. This learning was preparation for knowledge on and understanding various content needed to undertake various activities in the classroom. Examples of self-reflection (R) questions include: a) What do I know about this topic or subject? b) What would I like to learn about this topic or subject? c) How will I prepare to learn this topic for use in the coming class? d) What kinds of research do I need to do? e) What are my goals for this assignment? f) Have I given myself ample time to think about this assignment, and have I brainstormed possible solutions? 74 http://www.i-jim.org Paper—A Development of the Flipped Learning Model Using the Critical Inquiry Process to Enhance… Fig. 1. Steps in flipped classroom integrated with critical inquiry (FCCI) Phase 2 – In-Class: The in-class session involves practical exercises that mainly consist of group activities. Such activities increase peer interaction and allow the stu- dents to focus intensely on higher cognitive and group-based learning by taking part in small group discussions. The advantage of this activity is that it allows students to im- prove their critical thinking and problem-solving skills and enhance their interpersonal skills through the learning process. The learning activity is divided into three sections. 1. Introduction: The in-class section usually begins with the pre-class step, in which students are encouraged to review learning materials before classroom attendance. Specifically, the teacher assigns the quiz through Moodle. This quiz's main point is to assess students' comprehension of the content they learned about in the video lec- ture before the class. The teacher must have access to the students' evaluation scores immediately to check the correctness of the individual student's understanding and be aware of the need to explain in detail if a student has misunderstood or does not understand something. However, flipped classrooms possess some fundamental lim- itations, e.g., an immediate response cannot be provided to students when they have concerns about pre-class materials. Therefore, this step focuses on students' ques- tions that have arisen due to the pre-class material review. The teacher focuses on answering students' questions through the Moodle system or elaborating on them in the classroom in the first 15 minutes. This clears any doubts on the students' part and opens their minds to learning through other activities, helping them better under- stand. 2. Activities and practice: We utilized the critical inquiry technique for designing learning activities. Consequently, students have the opportunity to work in peer iJIM ‒ Vol. 15, No. 03, 2021 75 Paper—A Development of the Flipped Learning Model Using the Critical Inquiry Process to Enhance… groups or as a team. Teamwork allows them to learn from listening to each other's questions and points of view. The learning activities are as follows: Q: Question posting: Questioning is an activity that involves asking questions about a research problem. There are research samples for each group to think about, analyze, and ask questions about using the 5Ws&H concept. These are as follows: • What: What is the research problem? What has happened to this re- search? What was conducted to complete the research, what was in- volved processes, what methods were used, and the results and con- clusion? • Who: Who conducted this research? • When: When did the research start, and when did it finish? When will we collect the data? • Where: Where did this research take place? • Why: Why did this research happen? Why was there a need for it? • How: How will this research be beneficial? C: Data collection: This activity trains students to search for information from various sources, relying on knowledge after evaluating a source's credibility. A: Analysis: This is an activity that allows students to summarise the information obtained from the research process, to collect, think, interpret, and distinguish knowledge gathered in the study process, and present it in various ways that are easy to understand. D: Discussion: This exercise helps students connect with the information acquired from the exploration stage in more depth, discussed through information presen- tation. To support the study's evidence, students must explain and offer academic reasons, e.g., using open-ended questions via Padlet, to consider multiple perspec- tives. P: Presentation: In this stage, the teacher lets students observe the writing results and discussions from research samples; then, students brainstorm using Storm- board, which helps to brainstorm group members' ideas. The teacher is responsible for summarizing the issues and providing suggestions. Each group then writes and presents the knowledge gained in both poster and research journal formats. 3. Summarise: The process of summarising each session learned through the various activities carried out in the classroom is connected with the information that students have acquired outside the classroom through online platforms. The key to the flipped classroom is time management due to the variety of activities and practices. Teachers are also unable to handle time and lack the content summary process. However, this is considered an essential step in summarising the main ideas of each learning ses- sion. Phase 3 – After Class: The purpose of this process is to provide opportunities for students to integrate what they have learned, including practice and quizzes. Moreover, 76 http://www.i-jim.org Paper—A Development of the Flipped Learning Model Using the Critical Inquiry Process to Enhance… on the Moodle platform, the teacher should allow students to share their learning expe- rience and help each other absorb the new knowledge by generating questions. The critical activity of this phase is the reflection (R). The teacher creates the questions, and students answer them in order to construct knowledge by themselves. Examples of such questions include: 1. What have you learned? 2. How is today's learning connected to previous learning? 3. How can the knowledge learned today be used in the future? Furthermore, the activities encourage students to collaborate and participate in their projects. The teacher should create a forum for them to ask questions after the learning process has been completed. Teachers need to answer questions because it enables them to continue studying. 4.2 Suitability of the learning activities of the flipped classroom combined with critical inquiry (The FCCI model) The second research question is related to the experts' opinions on the FCCI process to enhance research skills. As assessed and approved by seven experts, the findings of the suitability of the FCCI are as follows (Table 1). Most of the experts were interested in combining the flipped classroom teaching method with the critical inquiry technique to develop research skills as a practical teach- ing method. They believed that this method could encourage student learning. The in- formation shown in Table 1 indicates that, overall, experts fully agree that the learning process model associated with the flipped classroom, integrated with critical inquiry, enhances students' research skills. Overall suitability was valued at a high level (�̅� = 4.57). However, some experts had suggestions on various issues, as indicated below: Exp. 3: 'It is a fascinating learning model that could be useful. However, be careful about the quality of the video content for the students to study beforehand, in terms of content presentation, picture and sounds, video duration, and using exciting presenta- tion techniques.' Exp. 4: 'The activities presented are interesting and can encourage students to en- hance their thinking skills and develop these into research skills. However, the re- searcher should add more reinforcing activities to motivate the students to study the content before entering the class. This will enable the implementation of activities in the classroom to achieve the goal.' Exp. 7: 'peer-assessment should be included in the evaluation design. The goal is to encourage student ownership and responsibility for learning. Also, there should be pro- gress reports in order to test students' understanding and experience continuously.' 5 Discussion Based on the literature review and the experts' evaluation results, the learning model for developing research skills using flipped classroom teaching methods as a classroom iJIM ‒ Vol. 15, No. 03, 2021 77 Paper—A Development of the Flipped Learning Model Using the Critical Inquiry Process to Enhance… management method both online and offline, with the application of the CI technique as a learning strategy for designing activities, will motivate students' mindsets and en- hance their practice concerning developing the research skills of undergraduate univer- sity students.

This allows students to acquire knowledge and understanding and develop thinking processes in various stages. This is suitable for developing research skills; in turn, students learn about research issues and be aware of using different re- search methods and activities to find answers. The results of this study divided the learning process into three main phases as follows: 1. Pre-class stage: This stage starts by clearly specifying each content's learning out- come in terms of what the teacher wants the students to learn and focuses on prepar- ing video lectures and other media forms following the study. It also shows that stu- dents learn better when acquiring data from more than one source [30,31]. The teacher then uploads the prepared materials onto Moodle, the learning management system for creating an online learning environment [32]. Videos should be 15–20 minutes in length [33–37]. It is necessary to recognize the video's quality, which should help students understand the content and grasp the right concept. Such a video does not necessarily use the highest technology because not all teachers have the expertise needed to make videos. Consequently, the teacher should not hesitate to use other people's videos instead [38]. However, teachers may be reluctant to use videos produced by others because they believe that students strongly prefer teachers to make videos of themselves [39,40]. Therefore, details such as the film's duration, the number of clips, or even the learning guidance, are useful information for pre- class learning [10,30,41]. 2. In-class stage: Compared to traditional learning, students' workload and self-moti- vation in the flipped classroom are higher because they need to prepare for and ac- tively participate in the class [35]. Therefore, the teacher's role in the flipped class- room also tends to focus on class activities. In this sense, it is crucial and even es- 78 http://www.i-jim.org Paper—A Development of the Flipped Learning Model Using the Critical Inquiry Process to Enhance… sential that time management is based on the class's learning objectives [42]. Re- search indicates that both internal and external incentives, such as ratings or rewards, to motivate students to participate should be designed to make students feel comfort- able, minimize their resistance, change their mindset, and motivate them to accept the flipped classroom [43]. Many researchers state that students frequently compare the flipped classroom with traditional teaching methods [8,10,44]. In traditional learning, students are passive, compared with the flipped classroom scenario in which they need to participate ac- tively. However, some students doubt that the new approach is more useful and do not accept it [26]. Consequently, with the new approach of implementing a learning strategy that integrates CI into classroom practices, it would be easier to carry out various activities to create meaningful learning. By having consistent content for both pre-class and in-class situations, students can connect knowledge and be part of a learning process that can develop research skills. Learning activities using critical inquiry begin with thinking practice by asking students to ask questions. This leads to the identification of research problems related to the development of a project. This may include considerations of the essence of questioning for students to practice logical procedures and to use logic to support the ideas, such as open-ended questions. It also allows them to argue for academic rea- sons by engaging in good questioning. Guiding questions help students review learn- ing material, promote critical thinking, and positively affect learning performance [45]. Using knowledgeable sources, students can assess the research approach's reli- ability and use data to analyze the situations logically. This is a primary method for finding credible answers for the research process, including discussions on subjects that have already been studied. Besides, the group activity described in our model has the potential to enhance student teamwork. The usefulness of group activity in flipped classrooms was previously reported by Tague & Czocher [46]. 3. After-class stage: This phase aims to enhance learning outcomes and obtain teacher feedback. Teachers encourage continuous learning by posting points to think about or to have students reflect on their thoughts by asking questions about their learning experience. In addition to engaging in self-learning, classmates can also learn more about other topics by sharing thoughts on the discussion board. An essential aim of reflective learning is to examine student practice more closely to strengthen under- standing and gain the skills needed to help achieve more effective classroom practice in the future [47-50]. 6 Conclusion To conclude, we proposed developing a learning process model to improve research skills through a flipped classroom and to use a critical inquiry approach to establish the research thinking process. Three stages are included in this model: pre-class, in-class, iJIM ‒ Vol. 15, No. 03, 2021 79 Paper—A Development of the Flipped Learning Model Using the Critical Inquiry Process to Enhance… and after-class. We used six critical inquiry thinking processes, including question post- ing, data collection, analysis, debate, presentation, and reflection, incorporated into each stage to achieve flip learning. Besides, we used online learning tools to empower students with various critical inquiry strategies, such as an online discussion board, online brainstorming tools, online notetaking, reflective journals, and Google docu- ments. This study shows that the evaluation carried out by experts in the field ensures its suitability in developing research skills as an efficient teaching model. We plan to explore this model shortly with undergraduate students in Thailand. Further research needs to be done to investigate how to inspire undergraduates when it comes to research activities [49]. It may also be worth considering the different factors associated with student learning styles and how they influence the flipped classroom's acceptance. 7 Acknowledgement This research was supported by grant WU61318 from Walailak University.
