The paper describes the experience of flipped classroom application in teaching ESP. The study was held at the National Aviation University and involved 46 undergraduate students majoring in “Automation and Computer-Integrated Technologies”. In-class learning was organized according to the university schedule and out-of-class activities were conducted by using Google Classroom and a set of digital learning tools. Our observations during teaching with their further analysis and a designed questionnaire were used to reveal the benefits and drawbacks of the flipped classroom. The analysis of the students’ responses has shown that it allows students to study at their own pace, meet their needs, develop their organizational, communication and time management skills and increase their independence and creativity. The paper specifies three main phases of the flipped classroom and determines what skills are developed at each of them. Remembering and understanding are developed at the first phase and the freed classroom time is devoted to developing the skills of applying and analyzing. The higher-order thinking skills of evaluating and creating can be formed both in the classroom and during the post-class phase. The authors have selected digital learning tools which can be recommended for learning ESP in order to facilitate students’ out-of-class activities. Their use can help to shift the emphasis from the teacher to the student, increase students’ engagement in learning and make the course versatile and appropriate to students’ needs. A student survey was conducted at the end of the academic year, and the analysis of students’ responses revealed that they had a positive attitude to implementing the flipped classroom in teaching ESP. As shown by the results of the study, the use of the flipped classroom for teaching ESP is effective as it saves much in-class time for communicative tasks enhancing the development of higher-order thinking skills, unites in-class and out-of-class learning, controls students’ achievement not only in the classroom but outside it and makes the learning process more engaging.

The Digital Native is experiencing education during a very unique time. Learning with the help of technology, becoming independent and flexible learners, will only build on the skills they need to face a rapidly changing world and truly become architects of their own learning. The i2Flex model (a blended learning model) allows curriculum demands to be met while creating a learning environment whereby Middle School Science students are motivated and become engaged in higher order skills. This chapter will discuss the i2Flex philosophy and how the flipped classroom complements this methodology and allows students to build on higher order thinking skills within a K-12 international school setting.

The study aimed to identify the relationship between science teachers' use of the flipped classroom strategy and their attitudes towards developing higher-order thinking skills among students of the higher basic stage in the Hebron governorate. In order to achieve the goal of the study, the researcher followed the descriptive and analytical approach, as she/he conducted a questionnaire to measure the extent to which science teachers use the flipped classroom strategy, and she conducted another questionnaire to measure the attitudes of science teachers towards developing higher-order thinking skills among students of the higher basic stage. Then, the two questionnaire sheets are electronically applied to a random sample of science teachers in the Hebron governorate. The number of the sample is (136) teachers in all directorates of the Hebron governorate. The results have shown that science teachers use the flipped classroom strategy frequently. Moreover, science teachers' attitudes towards developing higher-order thinking skills among students were at a high level, as the field of "critical thinking skills" came in the first place, followed by "problem-solving skills", however, "creative thinking skills" ranked last. Besides, the results have shown a strong correlation between science teachers ’use of the flipped classroom strategy and teachers' attitudes towards developing students' higher-order thinking skills. And, there are statistically significant differences in the science teachers' use of the flipped classroom strategy in teaching students of the higher basic stage in the Hebron governorate as well as in the science teachers' attitudes towards developing higher-order thinking skills among students of the higher basic stage in the Hebron governorate according to the gender variable for females, and according to the directorate variable for the directorate North Hebron. given the findings of the study; The researcher recommended that it is necessary to provide means of support to encourage teachers to employ modern technologies in teaching thinking. It is also necessary to conduct more studies dealing with the relationship between teachers' attitudes towards developing higher thinking skills and employing other teaching strategies and to conduct evaluation studies to examine the effectiveness of flipped learning strategies in teaching thinking.

Since Indonesia participated in the Program for International Students Assessment (PISA) and the Trend in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMMS) in 2000, the mathematics test results have never been satisfactory. Even until 2018, the results were still unsatisfactory. In other words, the test results are stagnant. To improve the results of these tests, the government has issued a policy of minimum competency assessment (AKM) or known as the Computer-Based National Assessment (ANBK). One of the tests in it is the provision of questions that are included in the Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) category, as are usually given on the PISA and TIMMS tests. Training for teachers in HOTS-integrated learning tools is needed to prepare schools or madrasas to face HOTS-integrated learning. The service partners are all teachers at MA Assawiyah Pringgasela Timur. The community service is on 7-8 August 2021, which 17 teachers attend. The method used is lecture and demonstration. The result of community service activities is that MA Assawiyah teachers gain knowledge about the basic concepts of Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS), implementation of HOTS in learning planning, and measuring HOTS in students. This can be seen from the learning tools that have been compiled into the HOTS category.

Traditional learning instruction puts students in a passive learning role such as listening to lectures in the classroom. One of the contemporary innovative instructional approaches is the "flipped classroom", which employs pre-class video-recorded lectures and critical in-class discussion. This instruction leads students to remember and understand the pre-class content or access videos before attending the class. In this study, we proposed the flipped learning model design in which relevant to the Indonesian Political Systems course. This preliminary study employed Research-Based Design as a methodological approach in collecting rigorous information from two experts in the field of educational technology and pedagogy. The study was conducted within several phases, namely: planning, designing, formative evaluation, revision, redesign, and summative evaluation. The finding of this study reveals that two activities are recommended to be applied for students before class (lower-order thinking skills)and the other four activities are practiced in the classroom (higher-order thinking skills). This study can be summarized that the employment of flipped-class instruction may potentially lead to independent learning and critical thinking skills. Besides, this study also becomes a recommendation for the Ministry of Research, Technology, and Higher Education (Ristekdikti) to consider the flipped classroom as a contemporary teaching-learning conception in Indonesia. AbstrakPembelajaran dengan metode konvensional seperti mendengarkan ceramah di kelas cenderung membuat peserta didik menjadi pasif dan akhirnya membuat kegiatan belajar-mengajar menjadi tidak menyenangkan dan membosankan. Salah satu model pembelajaran inovatif terbaru berbasis video pembelajaran dan diyakini dapat menjadi solusi untuk masalah ini adalah flipped classroom. Model pembelajaran ini akan menuntun peserta didik untuk belajar secara mandiri melalui video pembelajaran sebelum datang ke kelas, sedangkan kegiatan di kelas lebih difokuskan pada aktivitas diskusi dan tanya-jawab. Oleh karena demikian, penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendesain model pembelajaran flipped classroom atau kelas terbalik untuk diterapkan pada sebuah perguruan tinggi dengan mata kuliah Sistem Politik Indonesia. Studi sederhana ini menggunakan pendekatan Desain Berbasis Penelitian (Design-Based Research). Penelitian ini dilakukan dalam beberapa tahap, yaitu: perencanaan, perancangan, evaluasi formatif, revisi, desain ulang, dan evaluasi sumatif oleh dua orang pakar. Hasil dari penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa model pembelajaran flipped classroom bisa diimplementasikan dalam enam tahapan kegiatan; dua kegiatan sebelum datang ke kelas (lower-order thinking skills) dan empat kegiatan di dalam kelas (higher-order thinking skills). Dari hasil penelitian ini, dapat disimpulkan bahwa model pembelajaran inovatif flipped classroom berpotensi untuk diterapkan dalam kegiatan belajar-mengajar di perguruan tinggi, bertujuan untuk membangun budaya belajar mandiri dan berfikir kritis mahasiswa. Studi ini juga diharapkan bisa menjadi masukan bagi Kementerian Riset, Teknologi, dan Pendidikan Tinggi (Ristekdikti) atau pembuat kebijakan untuk merekomendasikan flipped classroom sebagai model pembelajaran kontemporer pada institusi pendidikan tinggi Indonesia.
