Adopting flipped learning network in teaching

الملخص EN

Delivering lecture content to students at home through electronic means and using class time for practical application activities is achieved through a teaching method that is called flipped classroom.

This method may be useful for information literacy instruction.

This study aims at describing many of the characteristics of the flipped classroom teaching network and answering the following questions: Is the differentiation and independent learning achieved through the flipped classroom concept is a successful method or not? Does this method in which students watch video lectures for homework and complete traditional homework assignments in class increase the students‟ understanding? And does independent learning provide students with an opportunity to complete work in the class with teacher assistance and this leads to reducing workload and stress in classroom with increasing content knowledge? It is hypothesized that different modalities are used to learn students and they should be allowed to demonstrate competency in suitable ways.

These modalities may be manifested through visual, audio, naturalistic, logical-mathematical kinesthetic, musical, and interpersonal learning styles.
