Exploring the Flipped Classroom Model: A Study on Student Success Compared to Traditional Methods
This capstone project investigates the effectiveness of the flipped classroom model in enhancing student success compared to traditional teaching methods. The flipped classroom, pioneered by educators Jonathan Bergmann and Aaron Sams, shifts the lecture portion to homework via video, allowing for more interactive in-class activities. Through research, surveys, and lesson creation from July 2012 to April 2013, this study evaluates the impact of this innovative instructional method on student participation, test scores, and overall learning experience. Results indicate a positive influence on student success.
