This study examines students’ attitudes towards the flipped classroom, and the effectiveness of flipped learning in General English courses at Farhangian University.

This is a fundamental research whose method is content analysis. It attempted to examine some cognitive and social elements of the texts of Teaching Persian Language in Persian (6th book) (Islamic Language and Education Training Center, 1395) for non-Persian learners of Al-Mustafa International University in the framework of socio-cognitive linguistics. The unit of analysis was "sentence" and all of the texts were examined. To do this, all sentences containing image schemas were extracted from among the 1150 sentences existing in the book while availing from Johnsons’ 1987 research. Then, from among these (430) sentences, 400 ones containing social variables were extracted and analyzed. In these sentences, the image schemas of "movement", "force", "collection" and "content" made the most metaphorical conceptualization, and the image schemas of "link", "merging" and "attraction" had the least share. Besides, social variables of "religion", "power", "politeness", "consciousness" and "dignity" have rolled in a metaphorical system. Moreover, the results indicate the influence of texts by the type of audience, the purpose of learning the Persian language, and the writers’ style and attitude.

The widespread expansion of academic networks and the unprecedented diversity of educational disciplines and programs in much of today's world have raised many questions about the nature of higher education, its role in human society, and its relation with other civic and economic organizations.

Referring to the changes brought about by the “Quiet Revolution” of the 1960s in the province of Quebec, he has criticized the major theories in this field.
