While current research on the flipped classroom generally focuses on test results and (or) student/teacher perceptions as a measurement of its pedagogical efficacy, students' adaptation to it and the essential conditions for its application are rarely explored. This exploratory case study aims to rectify this by examining how university students adapted to flipped classrooms implemented in a public university in East China. The findings suggest that while the flipped model is impeded by entrenched polarity between students in terms of their learning dispositions and academic competence, students do develop a prototype of theories of learning, a sense of better self through learning from their peers and an awareness of the importance of intrinsic motivation. A gradualist approach is thus proposed for implementing flipped classrooms, which requires longitudinal studies accordingly to understand its long-term effects on learning behavior hitherto left unexplored.

<p>Trata-se de estudo de caso, objetivando-se pôr à prova a suspeita de características de altas habilidades/superdotação (AH/SD) em um adolescente de 12 anos, do sexo masculino, realizando-se dez sessões de avaliação psicopedagógica. Após anamnese detalhada com a mãe e com o adolescente, foram empreendidos testes psicopedagógicos e um de eficiência intelectual, aplicado por uma psicóloga colaboradora, como forma de avaliação multirreferencial e multimétodos. O adolescente foi avaliado com bons recursos intelectuais; todavia, características de AH/SD foram vistas apenas pela mãe, e não pelos professores participantes. Acompanhamento assistido em atividades e oferecimento de enriquecimento curricular nas áreas de seu interesse (dentro ou fora da sala de aula) e no nível de seu desempenho foram prescritos.</p><p><strong>Palavras-chave: </strong>Avaliação Assistida, Aluno com Altas Habilidades/Superdotação, Interação Professor-aluno.</p><p> </p><p><strong>Adolescente en el contexto de las altas habilidades/superdotación: evaluación psicopedagógica</strong></p><p>Se trata de un estudio de caso, que tuvo el objetivo de poner a prueba la sospecha de características de altas habilidades/superdotación (AH/SD) en un adolescente de 12 años, del sexo masculino; se realizaron diez sesiones de evaluación psicopedagógica.

The aims of this analysis are to explain the level of thinking of grade VIII students at SMP Negeri 1 Talang Ubi in solving Pythagorean Theorem questions based on Van Hiele's theory. The research approach used in this analysis is descriptive qualitative case study research. The subjects of this research were three students of grade VIII of SMP Negeri 1 Talang Ubi, South Sumatera Indonesia. The three students were chosen based on their test answers on the Pythagorean Theorem material, with one being a high-ability student, one being a medium-ability student, and one being a low-ability student. The study's data collection techniques included assessments, interviews, and documentation. Techniques for data processing include data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion. The findings revealed that high-ability students could complete all four stages of Van Hiele's thinking: imagination, interpretation, informal deduction, and deduction. Moderate students achieved three levels of Van Hiele's thinking, including visualization, analysis, and informal deduction, while low-ability students achieved only one level of Van Hiele's thinking, visualization.

In the last few years, gamification studies have increased in the field of education and digital technologies, showing different results on the use of gamified educational systems in relation to students’ learning aspects. These studies, however, often keep the focus on quantitative or qualitative approaches directly related to student learning, without considering students’ perceptions of the gamification design and how the gamification design aspects of the system can influence positively the students’ behavior change. Therefore, this study compared a gamified with a non-gamified version of an educational system, through a mixed (quantitative and qualitative) approach to identify if gamified educational systems are better than non-gamified educational systems to provide positive students’ learning behavior change. The results confirmed that the gamified educational system was more effective than the non-gamified system.
