Abstract:The premise behind the “flipped classroom” is simple: Instead of listening to teachers lecture in class and then completing assignments at home, students watch online lessons before class and then complete homework, exercises, and other projects at school. And while the “flipped classroom” is a relatively new pedagogical model, it is quite promising. In fact, in just one year, the freshmen failure rate dropped by 33% in English, 31% in math, 22% in science, and 19% in social studies, and after two years college admission rates rose from 63% to 80%.
Findings: By implementing flipped instruction into the school, they saw many gains. Academic gains were impressive as well as teacher/student relationships became more reliable and accessible. The study shows the percentage rate of the gain from flipped instruction being implemented.

Abstract:When educators hear the terms flipped classroom and flipped learning, typically the first thing they think of is a teacher-created video that students watch at home, as though that were the essential ingredient.

It's not. Flipped learning is not about how to use videos in your lessons. It's about how to best use your in-class time with students. That insight is causing educators in classrooms from kindergarten to college to reevaluate how they teach.

Abstract:  the model is a mixture of direct instruction and constructivism, that it makes it easier for students who may have missed class to keep up because they can watch the videos at any time. The argument also goes that since students watch most teacher lectures at home and are receiving instruction as homework, they can spend class time working through any gaps or misunderstandings around the content with the teacher acting as guide on the side.

Abstract: Flipped instruction was originally designed by two teachers that came up with the idea for football players that were missing instruction time while being on the road. After seeing the success, they implemented it into their classrooms. Quickly they started to see the gains of flipped instruction.

GURNEE, Ill. -- There's a new way for school kids to do their homework -- and perhaps, a ray of hope for the parents who frequently get called on to help. Check out the flipped classroom.

At Warren Township High School in Gurnee, science teacher Collin Black helps kids do homework in class and sends his lectures home.

Black and others who've embraced what's called the flipped classroom condense their lectures into a brief, homemade and often light-hearted video.

Students can digest the information outside of class whenever they like. The next day, they get their questions answered and apply the lesson with the teacher in the room.

"I can talk faster in the video because I don't have to slow down for the kids to make sure they're catching it," said Black. "They can pause it, rewind it, so I can talk faster, and they can pick up that information quicker."

Freshman Hailey Dorsey echoed that point.

"We're, like, able to pause and go back and, like, re-go over stuff we don't understand," she said. "The videos are nice. I actually like them. They are much easier than what we had to do last year."

"It's really nice to go home, go look on the YouTube channel and you know, watch the videos," said Jared Cosey, another freshman.

Educator Jon Bergmann, along with partner Aaron Sams, came up with the flipped classroom concept. It was originally designed for football players who missed class while on the road.

"The question I like to ask is, 'What's the best use of your face-to-face class time?'" said Bergmann.

"We have school backwards. We're sending kids home to do the hard stuff. We're sending them home to apply, analyze and synthesize content, and they can't do it," said Bergmann. "Now when they come to class in a flipped classroom, the difficult tasks - application, analysis and synthesis - happens with the expert, the most important person, the teacher, present."

Three percent of teachers are flipping classrooms now, 18 percent have expressed interest and 28 percent of school administrations want to do it, according to Project Tomorrow, a national education nonprofit group.

"I can challenge the ones who are doing really, really well and help the kids who are really struggling with it," said Black. "But no matter what, every day now I talk to every kid."

For Black, the flipped classroom is right-side up.

"As I'm helping them, all of a sudden you see them like, 'Oh!,' and that light switches on," he said. "I love seeing that. When I see a kid who's been struggling, and then they understand it, that's what does it for me, for my job."

And for a whole group of young minds.

Abstract: The conversation focused on the use of technologies to support “flipped” classrooms.  What is the flipped classroom? This term describes a teaching approach in which students get a first exposure to course content before class through readings or videos, then spend class time deepening their understanding of that content through active learning exercises.
Findings: This article sits down and discusses with other educators what they see as a flipped classroom. The different views of each educator gives different aspects to learning about different learning styles and how flipped instruction may impact each style.

The Effects of the Flipped Model of Instruction on Student Engagement and Performance in the Secondary Mathematics Classroom

Abstract: In many of the secondary classrooms across the country, students are passively engaged in the mathematics content, and academic performance can be described, at best, as mediocre. This research study sought to bring about improvements in student engagement and performance in the secondary mathematics classroom through the implementation of the flippedmodel of instruction and compared student interaction in the flipped classroom with a traditional format. The flipped model of instruction is a relatively new teaching strategy attempting to improve student engagement and performance by moving the lecture outside the classroom via technology and moving homework and exercises with concepts inside the classroom via learning activities. Changes in the student participants' perceptions and attitudes were evidenced and evaluated through the completion of a pre- and post-survey, a teacher-created unit test, random interviews, and a focus group session. In addition, the researcher documented observations, experiences, thoughts, and insights regarding the intervention in a journal on a daily basis. Quantitative results and qualitative findings revealed the student participants responded favorably to the flipped model of instruction and experienced an increase in their engagement and communication when compared to the traditional classroom experience. The student participants also recognized improvements in the quality of instruction and use of class of time with the flipped model of instruction. In terms of academic performance, no significant changes were demonstrated between the flipped model of instruction students and those taught in a traditional classroom environment.
Findings:  Students had a positive perception toward the flipped classroom, indicating learning was more personalized, cooperative learning groups fostered critical thinking, and online resources provided students more control over their learning. The flipped model of instruction provides educators with the means to integrate effective use of technology in their classrooms to promote an active, collaborative environment. Results of her study revealed the flipped classroom improved student engagement, increased student-teacher feedback, and promoted self-paced learning.

Source: Peer Reviewed
Abstract:
The traditional classroom has utilized the "I Do", "We Do", "You Do" as a strategy for teaching for years. The flipped classroomtruly flips that strategy. The teacher uses "You Do", "We Do", "I Do" instead. Homework, inquiry, and investigation happen in the classroom. At home students participate in preparation work including watching videos, PowerPoint's, and completing readings. After completing the preparation work, students arrive in class ready to start solving problems, analyzing text, or investigating solutions. The flipped classroom is fairly new in the teaching field as a strategy for teaching. It has been used by teachers from elementary school to graduate school. As with most strategies, the flipped classroom has a variety of ways to implement in the classroom. This article is a case study of the flipped classroom. It reviews and provides research on the implementation of the flipped classroom. In addition, the article provides a variety of implementation methods and tools to be utilized in a flipped classroom. As with all teaching strategies there are advantages and disadvantages to the flipped classroom which are explained as well.
Findings:
Flipping your classroom does not mean you can never lecture or that your classroom is always flipped. Budget constraints do not have to prevent a teacher from utilizing the flipped classroom.  Citation: Schmidt, S. P., & Ralph, D. L. (2016). The Flipped Classroom: A Twist on Teaching.
