Flipped classroom technology from teachers’ perspective: implementation experience, barriers and perspectives

Blended learning approaches rise their popularity, however not all professors apply them and find them useful and appropriate. This research focuses on study of flipped classroom arrangement and effectiveness of this concept implementation. The Master’s Thesis explores impact of flipped classroom implementation on resource savings for proffesors. The research is based on the literature review of different education arrangements and results of their implementation, on the survey conducted among proffesors from different Universities and on two experiments of flipped classroom implementation. The results reveal advantages and disadvantages of the concept, professors’ attitude to it and possibility to future research and practice in this field

“Flipped Classroom” for Teaching Business Research in a Business Management Course

This presentation will report on a cross-department collaboration between the library and the business/economics department at Lehman College to conduct information literacy instruction as a “flipped classroom.”

Flipped classroom and learning strategies

This paper seeks to answer the research question "How does the flipped classroom affect students’ learning strategies?" In e-learning research, several studies have focused on how students and teachers perceive the flipped classroom approach. In general, these studies have reported pleasing results. Nonetheless, few, if any, studies have attempted to find out the potential effects of the flipped classroom approach on how students learn. This study was based on two cases: 1) a business modelling course and 2) a research methodology course. In both cases, participating students were from information systems courses at Dalarna University in Sweden. Recorded lectures replaced regular lectures. The recorded lectures were followed by seminars that focused on the learning content of each lecture in various ways. Three weeks after the final seminar, we arranged for two focus group interviews to take place in each course, with 8 to 10 students participating in each group. We asked open questions on how the students thought they had been affected and more dedicated questions that were generated from a literature study on the effects of flipped classroom courses. These questions dealt with issues about mobility, the potential for repeating lectures, formative feedback, the role of seminars, responsibility, empowerment, lectures before seminars, and any problems encountered. Our results show that, in general, students thought differently about learning after the courses in relation to more traditional approaches, especially regarding the need to be more active. Most students enjoyed the mobility aspect and the accessibility of recorded lectures, although a few claimed it demanded a more disciplined attitude. Most students also expressed a feeling of increased activity and responsibility when participating in seminars. Some even felt empowered because they could influence seminar content. The length of and possibility to navigate in recorded lectures was also considered important. The arrangement of the seminar rooms should promote face-to-face discussions. Finally, the types of questions and tasks were found to affect the outcomes of the seminars. The overall conclusion with regard to students’ learning strategies is that to be an active, responsible, empowered, and critical student you have to be an informed student with possibilities and mandate to influence how, where and when to learn and be able to receive continuous feedback during the learning process. Flipped classroom can support such learning.

Competencias digitales docentes para el desarrollo de la intercreatividad de las redes y flipped classroom con tecnologías móviles

[ES]A pesar del crecimiento constante y el asentamiento del e-learning como alternativa a algunas formas de educación presencial, existen aún áreas de investigación que pueden suponer avances importantes, según el informe horizon de 2015, entre ellas destacamos el BYOD y la Flipped clasroom la cual la hemos implementado a través del uso de las redes sociales y otros elementos del ecosistema digital, entre los que destacamos el protagonismo de las tecnologías móviles. En nuestro trabajo analizamos la combinación de estrategias y de metodologías activas e inductivas que permiten el desarrollo de habilidades y competencias digitales en donde las redes mediadas en entornos de ubicuidad, pueden convertirse en parte de la transformación educativa, ya que suponen un espacio colaborativo además de poder optimizar la dinámica de clase en la universidad.

Flipped classroom. Illustrazione del modello di insegnamento e resoconto di un'esperienza didattica

Questa tesi illustra approfonditamente il modello Flipped Classroom esponendo i nuovi ruoli rivestiti da insegnante e studente durante la prima inversione didattica, oltre che le numerose strategie attuabili nel corso del secondo momento pratico in aula, e le trasformazioni apportate dal metodo nell'ambito della valutazione scolastica. Infine, è presente un resoconto dettagliato della sperimentazione del modello Flipped Classroom che ho attuato personalmente presso una scuola secondaria di secondo grado, riportando inoltre le opinioni degli studenti delle due classi che ne hanno preso parte.

Flipped classroom ed apprendimento: un'esperienza di attività propedeutica nella scuola secondaria di primo grado

La Flipped Classroom è una metodologia didattica innovativa che prevede una inversione dei momenti classici delle didattica: la lezione frontale a scuola e lo studio individuale a casa. L’idea alla base della Flipped Classroom è utilizzare la tecnologia moderna per diffondere i contenuti fuori dall’orario scolastico così da concentrare poi le ore di lezione sull’elaborazione dei contenuti stessi. In questo modo si riporta l’attenzione didattica sull’elaborazione dei contenuti piuttosto che sul loro ascolto passivo. A seguito dello studio teorico del metodo Flipped ho fatto una esperienza di tirocinio presso una classe terza della Scuola secondaria di primo grado "`Il Guercino"' dell'IC9, in collaborazione con la professoressa Leone, per applicare questa metodologia didattica. Una volta in classe, io e la professoressa, abbiamo considerato più efficace e utile, per gli studenti con cui lavoravamo, fare propedeutica piuttosto che Flipped Classroom. L’esperienza di tirocinio è stata conclusa con un questionario per valutare l’utilizzo, da parte dei nostri studenti, della piattaforma didattica Moodle, in uso nella scuola. I risultati dell’analisi delle risposte è stato conforme a quanto da noi atteso: data l’età i nostri studenti non avevano il giusto grado di autonomia per lavorare con la metodologia della Flipped Classroom.

Elaboración de material para la realización de experiencias de clase inversa (flipped classroom)

Las experiencias docentes que fomentan la participación activa de los estudiantes son bien aceptadas por los alumnos y se consideran un estímulo añadido que les ayuda en el proceso de aprendizaje. La clase inversa o “Flipped classroom” es un recurso docente adaptado a los objetivos de la materia de estudio y al alumnado para el cual va dirigido, que permite una interacción más personalizada entre el docente y el estudiante y estimula el trabajo autónomo de los alumnos. Con esta red docente nos planteamos la elaboración de material audiovisual propio que permita al alumno estudiar de forma preliminar y autónoma cada concepto catalogado, con el objetivo de poder utilizar la metodología de clase inversa en diversas asignaturas de farmacología. Nuestro objetivo fue elaborar un material adaptado a las necesidades específicas de nuestras titulaciones y mejorar así los resultados alcanzados en una clase tradicional. Completamos la elaboración de vídeos correspondientes a cuatro temas seleccionados de la materia y realizamos una experiencia piloto en un seminario de farmacología con buena aceptación tanto por el profesorado como por los estudiantes. El material obtenido en esta red se utilizará el próximo curso académico.

NGL Project: Sub-project “Flipped Classroom” : Course “Organization Theory” (FÖ1039)

This paper is the final report from the NGL project implementing the flipped classroom approach into the undergraduate course "Organization Theory". The report describes the implementation and evaluates the outcomes of flipped classroom teaching/learning using the students' survey and statistics from YouTube analytics and the learning management platform Fronter.

Video lectures and online activities to engage students in a flipped classroom

In recent years there have been several proposals for alternative pedagogical practices. Most of these proposals are based in the, so called, “active learning”, in opposition to the common “passive learning”, which is centered on transmission of information inside classrooms as well as recognized as teacher-centered procedure. In an active learning pedagogical structure, students have a more participative role in the overall learning/teaching process, being encouraged to face new learning challenges like, for instance, solving problems and developing projects, in an autonomous approach trying to make them, consequently, able to build their own knowledge. The flipped or “inverted” classroom is one of these active learning pedagogical methodologies that emphasizes a learner-centered instruction. According to this approach, the first contact that students have with the content on a particular curriculum subject is not transmitted by the lecturer in the classroom, this teaching strategy requires students to assess and analyze the specific subject before attending to class, therefore the informational component from the lecture is the homework, and class time is dedicated to exercises and assignments, always with support from the instructor, who acts as a facilitator, helping students when needed and offering supplementary explanation as required. The main objective of this paper is to discuss and explore how the use of different types of instructional videos and online activities may be implemented in the flipped classroom procedure (as means of incorporating new content and teaching new competencies) and to describe students’ perceptions of this approach within a course in a Higher Education Institution (HEI), presenting some positive and negative features of this pedagogical practice.

Deconstruyendo el papel de emisor/receptor en el proceso enseñanza-aprendizaje. Posibilidades y experiencias en educación secundaria y educación superior de la introducción del «aula invertida» («flipped classroom»)

La experiencia que presentamos se ha desarrollado en una asignatura impartida en tres especialidades del Máster en Profesorado que forman para la docencia en diferentes etapas educativas: Educación Secundaria Obligatoria, Bachillerato y Formación Profesional. El propósito inicial que nos marcamos al introducir la metodología flipped classroom era responder a una serie de problemas que hacen aflorar importantes obstáculos en el desarrollo de competencias docentes: 1. Resistencia, por parte de nuestro alumnado, a dar relevancia a la formación recibida por la escasa cientificidad que le atribuye al conjunto de las Ciencias de la Educación y, en concreto, a la Didáctica de las Ciencias Sociales. 2. Limitada disposición de tiempo para introducirse y conocer un amplio cuerpo de teorías psicopedagógicas para la innovación docente e investigación educativa. Objetivos. El diseño de la inversión se realizó con el fin de superar los obstáculos descritos, crear ambientes estimulantes y propiciar ritmos de aprendizaje diversos, además de promover: 1. El aprendizaje individual y colaborativo de pedagogías para la innovación, con un marco teórico claro y experiencias prácticas que validan su aplicabilidad. 2. El desarrollo de competencias en el futuro profesorado, a través de la asunción del rol docente mediante el diseño e investigación de su propia práctica. Método. La investigación se ha desarrollado a partir de la aplicación de métodos cualitativos (debates, grupos de discusión y entrevistas), acordes con el modelo formativo reflexivo que se fundamenta en el socio-constructivismo y la pedagogía crítica. Resultados. Los resultados alcanzados han sido dispares y nos animan a profundizar en la investigación sobre la puesta en práctica del método de las flipped classroom para deconstruir representaciones tradicionales de la profesión docente. Conclusiones. Consideramos necesario explorar cómo podemos profundizar en la superación de la incredulidad e inseguridades que genera en nuestro alumnado la metodología: con una mayor adecuación del material seleccionado, mayor uso de las TIC, mejora del diseño de las tareas de aula.

Socratic flipped classroom : What types of questions and tasks promote learning?

Socratic questioning stresses the importance of questioning for learning. Flipped Classroom pedagogy generates a need for effective questions and tasks in order to promote active learning. This paper describes a project aimed at finding out how different kinds of questions and tasks support students’ learning in a flipped classroom context. In this study, during the flipped courses, both the questions and tasks were distributed together with video recordings. Answers and solutions were presented and discussed in seminars, with approximately 10 participating students in each seminar. Information Systems students from three flipped classroom courses at three different levels were interviewed in focus groups about their perceptions of how different kinds of questions and tasks supported their learning process. The selected courses were organized differently, with various kinds of questions and tasks. Course one included open questions that were answered and presented at the seminar. Students also solved a task and presented the solution to the group. Course two included open questions and a task. Answers and solutions were discussed at the seminars where students also reviewed each other’s answers and solutions. Course three included online single- and multiple choice questions with real-time feedback. Answers were discussed at the seminar, with the focus on any misconceptions. In this paper we categorized the questions in accordance with Wilson (2016) as factual, convergent, divergent, evaluative, or a combination of these. In all, we found that any comprehensible question that initiates a dialogue, preferably with a set of Socratic questions, is perceived as promoting learning. This is why seminars that allow such questions and discussion are effective. We found no differences between the different kinds of Socratic questions. They were seen to promote learning so long as they made students reflect and problematize the questions. To conclude, we found that questions and tasks promote learning when they are answered and solved in a process that is characterized by comprehensibility, variation, repetition and activity.

e-learning in the classroom?

As teachers, we are challenged everyday to solve pedagogical problems and we have to fight for our students’ attention in a media rich world. I will talk about how we use ICT in Initial Teacher Training and give you some insight on what we are doing. The most important benefit of using ICT in education is that it makes us reflect on our practice. There is no doubt that our classrooms need to be updated, but we need to be critical about every peace of hardware, software or service that we bring into them. It is not only because our budgets are short, but also because e‐learning is primarily about learning, not technology. Therefore, we need to have the knowledge and skills required to act in different situations, and choose the best tool for the job. Not all subjects are suitable for e‐learning, nor do all students have the skills to organize themselves their own study times. Also not all teachers want to spend time programming or learning about instructional design and metadata. The promised land of easy use of authoring tools (e.g. eXe and Reload) that will lead to all teachers become Learning Objects authors and share these LO in Repositories, all this failed, like previously HyperCard, Toolbook and others. We need to know a little bit of many different technologies so we can mobilize this knowledge when a situation requires it: integrate e‐learning technologies in the classroom, not a flipped classroom, just simple tools. Lecture capture, mobile phones and smartphones, pocket size camcorders, VoIP, VLE, live video broadcast, screen sharing, free services for collaborative work, save, share and sync your files. Do not feel stressed to use everything, every time. Just because we have a whiteboard does not mean we have to make it the centre of the classroom. Start from where you are, with your preferred subject and the tools you master. Them go slowly and try some new tool in a non‐formal situation and with just one or two students. And you don’t need to be alone: subscribe a mailing list and share your thoughts with other teachers in a dedicated forum, even better if both are part of a community of practice, and share resources. We did that for music teachers and it was a success, in two years arriving at 1.000 members. Just do it.
