A conceptual review of the effectiveness of flipped learning in vocational learners’ cognitive skills and emotional states

Abstract

An inverted method of teaching is an instructional model where traditional classroom activities take place before class while class time is devoted to discussion, problem-solving, and interaction among students. Flipped learning is a learner-centered and technology-driven approach that benefits from the inverted method of teaching. Recently, instructors have begun to employ innovative pedagogies like flipped learning approach, to change the conventional practices in vocational education as flipped learning gives them a chance for professional development. In order to find out the reasons of the improvement of vocational education through the use of flipped learning approach, this review examined the effect of the flipped learning approach on vocational learners’ cognitive skills and emotional states in earlier studies. The earlier investigations showed the significant effect flipped learning approach on vocational learners’ emotions, such as engagement, motivation, self-efficacy, and their cognitive skills, including critical thinking, problem-solving, learning skill, learning strategies, and communicative competence. However, this review implicated that flipped learning, as a type of blended learning, may be beneficial for learners, instructors, and students’ parents to be aware of this valuable learner-centered approach in vocational education.

The Investigation on College Students' English Writing Achievements and Perceptions towards a Flipped Instructional Model

“…Specifically, students found that the use of video lectures gave them enough time to acquire sentence structure, and they believed that the online materials and videos used in their English class were effective in helping them learn. The findings of this study are consistent with Zhou's (2023) suggestion that flipped learning, as a form of blended learning, can provide benefits not just to learners but also to instructors and parents. As a result, it should be considered a valuable approach for vocational education.…”

“…Recently, to understand the impact of flipped learning on vocational learners, Zhou (2023) analyzed previous studies on the effect of flipped learning on cognitive skills and emotional states. The results of these investigations indicated that flipped learning had a significant positive impact on learners' engagement, motivation, self-efficacy, critical thinking, problem-solving, learning skills, learning strategies, and communicative competence.…”

“…Another limitation of this study was that the default settings of the test software used are limited to group observations and do not allow individual tracking. It is likely that an FC depends on student performance, meaning that higher-level learners students outperform compared to lower-level learners [69]. In future studies, we will observe students as individuals.…”

“…Similarly, Baskara (2023) stated that chat robots can help increase motivation and ensure participation. The flipped learning approach is a teaching strategy that can be used in vocational education, according to Zhou (2023). Fonseca et al (2023) stated that increased student engagement and data to evaluate their performance were the most frequently cited benefits; they identified the increase in time and effort spent by teachers and students as the most encountered difficulties.…”
