The article presents the Flipped Classroom approach and its application at the Faculty of Techniques and Technologies (FTT) - Yambol, based on the training in the subjects "Programming and Use of Computers", "Food Contaminants", and "Object-Oriented Programming" in the 2016-2018 academic years. For the students, the problem is to filter some sources that are not reliable. In the new digital age, the lecturers expect them to be creative and to prepare their assignment using new approaches. When students follow their lecturers’ instructions concerning the literature and resources their projects tend to be more successful. This is one of the issues we encounter in preparing students for their classes. The second problem that we want to solve is the presentation of information using the "pouring in the bank" approach, where students are offered lectures and tutorials without being able actively to participate in the learning process. The students are trained to acquire knowledge without placing and solving problems and looking for new solutions. The article goals are to analyze the approach that we apply to the students' training to stimulate their activity in learning the material and filling the gaps in their knowledge. The first part of the article reviews the theory and the application of the Flipped Classroom approach by other authors in different subject areas. We present different taxonomic models and qualities that they build for the student’s learning process. The following part analyses the application of the approach in the mentioned fields of study for students of Bachelor's and Master’s degrees. In the article, we present steps for Flipped classrooms. We discuss also the key elements of The Flipped classroom and the benefits and limitations of using it. In conclusion, the article outlines the results achieved and the prospects for enhancing the engagement of the students in learning.

This article explores the flipped-classroom learning cycle and traditional blended-learning cycle from the experiential learning-theory perspective, according to which we proposed three teaching strategies: high-flipped classroom (high-FC), low-flipped classroom (low-FC), and Traditional Blended Learning (traditional BL). And, the three teaching strategies are adopted in the course of Enterprise Resource Planning System. The purpose is to investigate the effects of learning outcomes and satisfaction among high-FC, traditional BL, and low-FC. This research adopts a quasi-experimental method. The sample for the study is a compulsory course of the Information Management Department of the University of Science and Technology in Taiwan, with a total of 94 students in two classes. There are several research conclusions. (1) The three groups of t test results found that there are significant differences in the learning outcomes of the system skills. high-FC is better than low-FC, low-FC is better than traditional BL, and high-FC is better than traditional BL. However, there are no significant differences in the learning outcomes of process knowledge. (2) The results of ANOVA testing showed that students have the highest perceived learning outcomes for high-FC, followed by low-FC and traditional BL. (3) The results of ANOVA testing showed that students have the highest perceived learning satisfaction in high-FC, followed by low-FC, and the lowest is traditional BL. (4) The t test result shows that students are more satisfied with preview e-learning than review e-learning. The study findings provide several implications. (1) It is feasible to implement flipped classrooms from the perspective of experiential-learning theory. (2) Fully flipped classrooms have practical difficulties. A partially flipped classroom (high-FC or low-FC) can be a feasible gradual strategy. (3) Flipped classrooms and e-learning support each other’s sustainable development. (4) The flipped classroom based on experiential learning theoretical perspective has obtained preliminary verification in the ERP-system course.

The article presents findings of the pilot empirical research on the performance of the ‘Mathematical Methods in Psychology’ e-course as an open digital educational resource for the implementation of blended learning using the ‘flipped classroom’ model at the university. The students' attitudes toward blended learning in the e-course format, their self-esteem of involvement in the learning process, as well as the educational results were examined. The main benefits for the students are the following: the accessibility of tutorials and information about their individual learning trajectory at any time; the convenience of self-preparation for classes. The students characterize the activity at seminars as active interaction with classmates and a teacher and involvement in the learning process. In general, the students positively assessed the use of digital resources in the blended learning educational process as a modern approach and expressed their wish to study other subjects or courses in this format (at other universities in Russia and abroad as well). No essential difficulties in taking the e-course were revealed. There is a correlation between the students’ positive evaluations of their own educational outcomes and their positive attitude to the new format (р < 0,001). The educational outcomes of the students after passing the e-course statistically significantly improved (р < 0,001). The blended learning group educational results are significantly higher as compared to traditional in-class education group (р < 0,001). The study was conducted at the Moscow State University of Psychology and Education. The total sample size N = 387 students of psychology departments, the experimental group size N = 78. The comparison group of traditional full-time education students (N = 309) is balanced with the experimental group in the following context parameters: gender and age, major academic disciplines, same teacher, MSUPE students.

In today's educational setting of state and federal mandates, teachers are looking for ways to increase student engagement and collaboration in their classrooms. New educational technologies have many teachers exploring the flipped classroom to meet those mandates. In flipped classrooms, educators flip direct instruction and traditional homework. Students might watch a video over a concept at home and then apply the concept to problems in class. For almost two decades, teachers have implemented and research has been conducted on the flipped model. Little of that research exists at grades 6-12, where the majority of teachers using it teach. This study looked inside the flipped classrooms of seven middle and high school teachers from subject areas including mathematics, science, Spanish, and social studies. Data for the study were collected through interviews, lesson plans and materials, as well as classroom observations in order to gain a full picture of the activities taking place inside of flipped classrooms. This study also looked at the teachers' motivations for using the model.

Purpose of study. In the situation of the coronavirus pandemic, distance learning technologies have become the only way to organize the educational process. The transition to distance learning required both adaptation of the content, tools and methods of teaching to the new conditions, and adaptation on the part of students, in particular, it demanded from them to be much more independent and responsible, as well as the ability to effectively use their time. In this connection, the aim of the study was to analyze how the technology of blended learning allows students to better adapt to the conditions of distance learning.Materials and methods. The author considered the following as the main indicators of students’ adaptation to distance learning: 1) actual results of learning activities; 2) the degree of students’ satisfaction with the results of their learning activity; 3) self-assessment of readiness to use ICT tools in learning process, development of independent work and self-organization skills, self-report on the psychological state. The analysis of pedagogical literature on blended learning made it possible to identify a number of important principles which the learning process should be based on in the flipped classroom model, the analysis of which, in turn, showed that they fully correspond with the principles of distance learning. All this suggests that blended learning as a component of full-time instruction, implemented from the first term when teaching English as an academic discipline, should help students better adapt to the conditions of distance learning. To confirm this hypothesis, an analysis and comparison of the results of learning activities in the conditions of blended and distance learning, as well as a questionnaire of students were conducted.Results. Comparison of the current and final performance in English as an academic subject in the conditions of blended and distance learning did not reveal any significant changes. Survey analysis showed that the transition to distance learning was a challenge for most students and demanded from them to make significant efforts  to adapt, which was manifested in a decreased level of satisfaction with the results of their learning activities in general, an increased level of anxiety, as well as highlighting a number of difficulties that they had to face. However, a comparison of data obtained on the discipline “English language”, where training was initially built on the flipped classroom model, and data on distance learning in general allows the author to conclude that the technology of blended learning makes it possible to reduce a number of difficulties, in particular, technical difficulties when switching to distance learning, and the indicator of satisfaction with the results of their learning activities shows that the flipped classroom model allows students to more fully realize their abilities and achieve the desired results not only in the conditions of blended learning, but also when switching to distance one.Conclusion. The analysis made it possible to show a significant potential of blended learning in the conditions of introducing information technologies in education. At the same time, it is necessary to keep in mind the importance of pedagogical support in the context of e-learning.

The use of flipped classrooms has been gaining popularity across various disciplines as student-centered active learning pedagogy. In this study, an introductory organic chemistry course was delivered through flipped classroom methodologies, incorporating blended learning to deliver content and group work in the classroom.   The learning experiences of non-chemistry majors students enrolled in the course are discussed. The majority of the students adjusted to the pedagogy and felt autonomy in their learning. These students also believed that most of the flipped classroom design components were a good use of their time in learning organic chemistry.
