Abstract:
This study consists of a scoping review of the existing literature on the implementation of the Flipped Learning (FL) model in the university environment. Eighteen studies published between 2014 and 2020 were selected, of which 77.8% were scientific articles. The range of the mean ages of the participants in the FL courses was from 21 to 30 years. The objectives of this review were to analyze the activities carried out before, during and after the class, the advantages and disadvantages of the application of the model, and the technological tools used in the teaching practice. The study found that watching videos (83.33%) and completing tests and lessons (50%) were the main activities before class, while group work was frequent during (72.22%) and after class (16.67%). The most reported advantages of the FL model included increased student participation, motivation, and satisfaction (42.11%). The most commonly used technological tool was the learning management system (e.g. Moodle, 20%). The results of this review aim to provide recommendations for teachers interested in implementing the FL model in their classes and for researchers focusing on the implementation of the model in university education.
