Flipped-classroom with interactive videos in first year undergraduate physics course in Hong Kong

Abstract

Flipped-classroom learning has been shown to improve students' learning experience and performance in tertiary education. However, few studies have been done in Asia where the learning culture is vastly different from the West. Here, we studied the effect of flipped-classroom learning with the use of interactive videos on the academic performance of a group of first year undergraduate physics students in Hong Kong. By employing a conceptbased pre-test and post-test, normalized gains of 35% and 13% were obtained for the flipped and control class, respectively. A very strong correlation (r = 0.72, p < .001) was shown between the post-test score and the exam results of the flipped class, while the control class showed a moderate positive correlation (r = 0.37, p = .013). Our results showed that the conceptual knowledge of students taught in flipped-classroom improved significantly more than the students taught traditionally, and that their understanding in conceptual knowledge served as a stronger indicator of their exam performance. The interactive videos were well-received and were shown to be one of the most valued components by the students.

Efectos del aula invertida en el rendimiento académico en cursos de Física: una revisión sistemática

“…A partir de los criterios establecidos en la Escala para evaluar artículos científicos en Ciencias Sociales y Humanas (EACSH) de López-López et al ( 2019), de los 22 estudios incluidos en la revisión, se calificaron 4 con calidad alta (Bawaneh y Moumene, 2020;Aşıksoy, 2017;Sun y Wu, 2016;Şengel, 2016), 11 con calidad media (Atwa et al, 2018;Atwa et al, 2016;Basriyah et al, 2020;Aşıksoy y Özdamlı, 2016;Hasanah et al, 2021;Cagande y Jugar, 2018;Asiksoy y Ozdamli, 2017;Chong et al, 2019;González-Pérez y Trevino, 2019;Hung y Young, 2021;Webster et al, 2016), 6 con calidad baja (Moore, 2018;Limueco & Prudente, 2018;Şengel, 2014;Finkenberg & Trefzger, 2019;Eldy et al, 2019;William Dharma Raja & Ligi, 2018 y 1 con calidad muy baja (Astra & Khumaeroh, 2019).

La influencia de las ideas previas del concepto de fuerza en el rendimiento de los estudiantes en los cursos introductorios de física de la universidad

“…Some alternative methodologies have been proposed to solve this problem (Physport, 2011). But it is difficult to specify strategies, and it is an open field for research and innovation (v.g., Aviani et al, 2015;Bain et al, 2014;Chong et al, 2019;Liang et al, 2012;Mercier et al, 2020;Olmstead, 2019;Vicovaro, 2023).…”
