Abstract The purpose of this study was to examine the effectiveness of synchronous online flipped learning (SOFL) when no one can go to school and merely rely on online learning during the COVID-19 epidemic. According to community of inquiry (CoI), put forward by Garrison et al (2001), only when the three key elements of blended teaching, social presence, teaching presence and cognitive presence reach a high level, can effective learning occur, which were used as the framework of this study. Mixed methods were used to evaluate the effectiveness of SOFL teaching. A total of 60 undergraduates from pre-service English teacher training program participated in an online questionnaire survey and 25 of them voluntarily joined online in-depth interviews. Results showed that the learning effect was improved in SOFL context. Anonymity was found to improve learning in asynchronous online learning while distraction and lack of sustainable attention were found in synchronous online learning session. The findings suggest that instructors may need to have a careful design, strict organization and scientific implementation of synchronous online teaching and learning in order to achieve distinctive teaching effects, and that they may also consider the complex influence factors of synchronous and asynchronous online learning to arouse students’ interest and attention, and meet their learning needs (Wong 2020).
