Analytic Hierarchy Process for Evaluating Flipped Classroom Learning

Abstract

In reality, the flipped classroom has gained popularity as a modern way of structuring teaching, where lectures move from in-class procedures to digitally-based assignments, freeing up the debate, and practice exercises class time. Therefore, it is essential to implement and analyze a way of teaching that will improve student performance. The paper aims to develop a model of the method of teaching science in Iraqi schools, and to assess whether teaching flipped classroom affects the achievement, motivation, and creative thinking of students by using the methodology of Multi-Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) in the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). The AHP approach includes several steps, including setting assessment criteria and their weights, and by assessing the methodology of the flipped classroom as compared to the conventional cognitive learning process. An experiment was carried out in Iraqi secondary schools to examine the attitude of the students towards the subject of Chemistry. The findings have indicated that the students and teachers favored flipped classroom learning more than conventional cognitive learning. The study took the following parameters compared to the traditional approach: teaching techniques, learning flexibility, teaching aids effectiveness, student participation and working environment. This paper indicates that the teachers in Iraqi schools will be able to improve and do more preparation to shift towards flipped learning in the classroom.

“…The proposed architecture provides a reliable structure to assist applications of ultra-low latency. The results of evaluation using realistic situations for different network scenarios reveals that the proposed mobile edge computing and SDN enabled architecture of vehicular network accomplishes a gain of performance up to 74 percent in task blocking terms over the implemented baseline (Mohammed 2021;Mohammed and Daham 2021).…”

“…These have become quite prolific and are the primary circulating forms of the virus in many areas (Alhayani et al 2021 ; Hasan and Alhayani 2021 ). ORF1ab, ORF3a, ORF8, N, M, and S regions have all been found to have mutations, with nt8782 in ORF 1a and nt28144 ORF 8 showed mutation rate of 29.47% and 30.53%, respectively (Wang et al 2020 ; Hasan and Alhayani 2021 ; Mohammed and Daham 2021 ). In addition, it is believed that nucleotide variations, one of the most important indicators of viral development, are also responsible for modifying the virus in all conditions (Mostafaei et al 2021 ; Hui 2006 ; Domingo 2000 ; Taheri et al 2021 ; Ibrahim et al 2021 ; Khan et al 2021 ).…”

“…Flipped Classroom adalah reorganisasi antara lingkungan kelas dengan kegiatan rumah. Artinya kegiatan yang biasanya dilakukan di dalam kelas, sekarang dapat dilakukan di luar kelas, begitupun sebaliknya (Mohammed & Daham, 2020).…”
