Details	This paper reports on a pilot study in which researchers explored new ways to design and to implement an original English as a Foreign Language (EFL) Flipped Learning (FL) course at a university in Japan. FL in this course-based action research study was defined as a form of Blended Learning in which students in small groups engaged in outside-of-class e-learning preparatory tasks, on a website called Inkling Habitat, for in-class Collaborative Learning activities.
