Comparing the effectiveness of the flipped classroom model and the traditional instruction model: A meta-analysis

Abstract

The flipped classroom model has been increasingly implemented in the teaching and learning process at all levels with a view to improving the teaching and learning process, particularly in the present circumstances. Despite the prevalence of the view that the implementation of this approach eliminates the key disadvantages of traditional teaching such as the passivization of students, it is advisable to verify this in practice. In order to examine the effectiveness of the implementation of the flipped classroom model, it is necessary to consider the results of students' learning and their motivation for learning relative to the traditional instruction model. This paper aims to provide insight into the current situation through the systematization of the results of some past research focusing on comparing the implementation of the flipped classroom model and the traditional instruction model in terms of their effects on internal motivation for learning and student achievement on knowledge assessment tests. The results of the conducted meta-analysis of 22 research papers suggest that the implementation of the flipped classroom contributes to the strengthening of students' internal motivation and their higher achievement.

Construction of Incentive Mechanism for Students’ Independent Learning Based on Flipped Classroom Context in the Context of Informatization

“…It accomplishes knowledge transfer with the help of various technological means, allows students to learn independently before classroom teaching, and focuses on solving the confusion and questions encountered in the process of students' independent learning through teacher-student discussion in the classroom to achieve knowledge internalization [11][12]. The flipped classroom changes the roles of teachers and students by reversing the order of knowledge transfer and knowledge internalization, redesigning and planning the classroom, changing the passive learning state of students, and promoting the active exploration of the inquiry process [13][14]. However, to make the flipped classroom can really realize the flip of the teaching process, whether independent learning before classroom teaching is the most critical, how to motivate students to learn independently outside the classroom is the biggest problem facing the flipped classroom [15][16].…”
