Empirical research of emerging trends and patterns across the flipped classroom studies using topic modeling

Abstract

This study presents topic modeling based bibliometric characteristics of the articles related to the flipped classroom. The corpus of the study consists of 2959 articles published in the Scopus database as of the end of 2021. In addition to the bibliometric characteristics of the field, research interests and trends were also revealed with the study, which was based on the topic modeling-based bibliometric analysis method. According to the results of the study, an increase in the number of publications has been observed since 2015. Nearly one-third of the studies are of United States origin. According to the findings of the topic analysis in which the research interests and trends in the studies were revealed, the articles in this field were gathered under 16 topics. Considering the number of publications of the topic, it was seen that the three most voluminous topics were “Performance and perception”, “Nursing education” and “Effectiveness and motivation”, respectively. It is thought that the results of the study will provide a general perspective to the researchers in this field and provide important outputs in the context of monitoring the issues that may become prominent in the future.

A Latent Dirichlet Allocation approach to understanding students’ perceptions of Automated Writing Evaluation

“…It also provides researchers with an efficient means of analyzing large volumes of textual data and deriving meaningful insights at scale. In contrast to traditional qualitative methods, such as interviews or focus groups, which are time-consuming and subjective in data analysis, LDA automates the categorization and analysis of textual data, enabling a more systematic and streamlined approach to identifying themes and patterns (e.g., [ [30] , [31] , [32] ]). This quantitative framework allows for objective quantification of topic prevalence and relationships within the data, addressing the limitations associated with handling large datasets and ensuring replicability across different contexts or studies.…”

“…LDA, a computational modeling technique used in natural language processing, allows for identifying latent themes within a corpus of text data [ 28 , 29 ]. For instance, LDA has been used productively to identify latent research interests and research trends in published articles on topics such as the flipped classroom [ 30 ], computational thinking [ 31 ], and educational data mining [ 32 ]. In a similar way, by applying LDA to students’ written responses regarding their experiences with AWE, we gain insights into their perceptions, preferences, and challenges related to the software, and do so in a way that supports the generalizability of study findings.…”

Improving students’ geography achievement using computer simulation and animation packages in flipped classroom settings

“…Flipped classroom is an innovative teaching approach in a personalized learning environment that leverages on technology in order to transform the organization and performance of school happenings before, during and after the face-to-face periods (Cabero-Almenara et al, 2021;Ruslan et al, 2022). Ozyurt (2022) noted that during flipped classroom settings, the activities carried out in the classroom environs in orthodox learning is usually relocated to the home environment, and the happenings executed at home environment is moved to the classroom setting. Flipped classroom enables teachers to bring new modernizations into school activities by combining information and communication technologies (ICTs) into teaching before, during and after the face-to-face sessions (Salas-Rueda, 2022).…”

“…Expansion in technology has also increased the necessity for interactive learning process, which therefore guarantees the inclusion of different technological learner-centered atmospheres in education practices (Ozyurt, 2022). These technological interventions are vital and relevant to teaching and learning of geography.…”

Implementasi Flipped Classroom dalam Mendukung Merdeka Belajar untuk Meningkatkan Kemandirian Belajar

“…Manfaat dan potensi pembelajaran Flipped Classroom terlihat dari keinginan peserta didik untuk terus mencari materi pembelajaran lain, peserta didik tidak merasa bahwa keterlibatan dalam pembelajaran Kurikulum Merdeka Belajar bisa dilaksanakan secara online maupun offline guna mengalokasikan waktu, tenaga, dan pikiran yang diperlukan untuk mencapai standart yang telah ditentukan (Ozyurt, 2022).…”
