Faculty Workshop

A great deal of interest has emerged recently in the flipped classroom (FC), a student-centered teaching approach. After attending a presentation by the first author on the FC, a faculty member of a medical school in Mexico arranged for a 3-day workshop for 13 faculty members. The goal of the workshop was to train faculty to use the FC strategy in their classrooms to increase student engagement in learning. The workshop was in the FC style, where the participants would assume the role of students. Pre- and posttraining surveys were administered to examine participants’ current teaching practices and to evaluate their perceptions of the FC. The participants overwhelmingly reported the need to change their lecture-based teaching, as it was not engaging students. Their large class size, lack of technology, training, and uncertainty of the effectiveness of new teaching methods had hindered participants from changing their teaching technique. The on-site training not only allowed the entire department to work closely and discuss the new teaching approach, but also reinforced the idea of changing their teaching strategy and embracing FC teaching method. After the workshop, participants reported being determined to use the FC strategy in their classrooms and felt more prepared to do so. The post-survey results indicated that participants valued the FC training in the flipped style and wanted more of the hands-on activities. In conclusion, the 3-day faculty workshop on the FC was successful, since every participant was motivated to use this teaching method.

Face To Face Learning

[This Proceedings paper was revised and published in the 2019 issue of the journal Issues in Informing Science and Information Technology, Volume 16] Aim/Purpose: The flipped classroom approach is one of the most popular active learning approaches. This paper explores the effectiveness of a new pedagogy, known as FOCUSED, for postgraduate students. Background: The flipped classroom approach is a trendy blended learning pedagogy which capitalizes on the flexibility of online learning and the stimulating nature of face-to-face discussion. This article describes a pilot study involving post-graduate students who experienced the flipped classroom approach in one of their courses. Methodology: In additional to online activities, students adopted a newly learned approach to solve a related problem that was given by another group of students during classes. Quantitative data were collected from pre- and post-tests for both self-learned online materials and group discussion during classes so that the effectiveness of the flipped classroom pedagogy could be examined from the perspective of a holistic learning experience. Findings: It was found that the average scores for the post-test for the self-learned online video were much higher than for pre-test, even though the post-tests for both online and face-to-face learning were higher than the respective pre-tests. The qualitative data collected at the end of the flipped classroom activities further confirmed the value of the flipped classroom approach. Even though students could self-learn, more students valued peer interactions in the classroom more than the flexibility of online learning.

As one of the key infrastructures within web-based learning, courseware is adopted by schools and universities to enable a systematic learning delivery and education management. Students in both traditional face-to-face learning and online courses can benefit from this technology. The wide range of courseware platforms are supporting course needs by offering great flexibility in information delivery, communication services, and collaboration. This chapter looks at the role of web-based courseware in tertiary education, using MyLO (My Learning Online) as an example. It reveals that courseware systems like MyLO have a great potential in facilitating collaborations and enhance interactions among lecturers and students. To achieve this, potential efforts from all perspective are required; including students, lecturers and faculties.

Hands On Learning

This paper explores a case study of implementing blended learning in a third-year engineering course. In “Mechanical and Thermal Energy Conversion Processes”, blended learning was implemented by flipping the classroom (i.e. reversing the roles of lectures and homework) for selected units of the course. While flipping an entire course can be a significant undertaking, it can be much easier to take a blended approach and only flip lectures on selected topics. Many studies on flipped classroom learning have focused on the production of online lectures and active learning methods; often these case studies have overlooked the mechanisms to bring homework into the classroom. In this case study, homework was adapted into a variety of in-class activities, composed of hands-on learning, problem solving, and classroom discussions. In addition, a variety of classroom space types were used to conduct these activities. In this paper, the successes, challenges, and lessons learned for each type of activity and classroom space are discussed. Strategies for student engagement and acceptance of blended learning are also discussed.

The incorporation of information technology in education has benefitted learning institutions, instructors as well as students in coping with how knowledge can be transferred, absorbed, and used in the context of teaching and learning. The flipped classroom has been used to maximize the in-class time with discussions and critical thinking activities and leaves the learning to the students prior to the in-class sessions which were considered difficult to be implemented in a traditional classroom setting. The aim of this study is to explore students’ learning experiences with the implementation of flipped classroom approach. This study presents 96 business program students’ experiences of incorporating flipped classroom approach in a web designing course at the university level. Both quantitative and qualitative questionnaire was used to collect data for this study. The findings of the study showed that students responded positively to this approach. Students expressed that they are able to learn better and be more prepared to attend face-to-face classes. They appreciated that they were given the freedom to take charge of their individual learning. The hands-on nature of the course made flipped classroom favorable because students are able to apply their knowledge immediately by using the self-check questions after viewing the videos and progress to more complex applications during the in-class sessions. Students welcomed such an approach to be used in other hands-on or practical courses. However, there are still areas of concern and challenges for both students and instructors that need to be looked into when incorporating the flipped classroom model.

The Government

The COVID-19 pandemic has forced the world of education to change its system and use a new paradigm to deal with emerging problems. The government made a policy that ratified the independence of learning in the new era. All levels of society must prepare themselves to do face-to-face learning through online activities by utilizing technology within the framework of learning from home. Learning held using online media provides opportunities for students to develop themselves independently, guided by teachers in distance learning (PJJ) through online classes. Many new problems arise, not only faced by students but also by parents and teachers. This is due to not being familiar with PJJ. The problem faced by teachers is that it is difficult to control students let alone make them study seriously and effectively. The problem faced by parents is that not only do they not have the financial ability to provide information technology tools to carry out learning activities but also they do not have sufficient cognitive abilities to assist their sons and daughters in solving problems in lessons, so interesting methods are needed to solve this problem. . English as a foreign language is a big problem for students and parents to carry out learning without direct teacher assistance. Moreover, narrative text is a difficult material for students of SMP Negeri 2 Kepanjen to master. The researcher found that the learning by doing method initiated by Dewey would help students to better understand narrative texts. The researcher tried to apply this method to students in grade 9 ASMP N 2 Kepanjen for the 2020-2021 school year. After applying the method initiated by Dewey, there was a significant improvement in the ability to understand narrative texts. This can be seen from the value they get. The increase in value reached 31.4%. ABSTRAKMasa pandemi covid 19 telah membuat dunia pendidikan harus mengubah sistemnya dan menggunakan paradigma baru untuk menghadapi masalah yang mulai muncul. Pemerintah membuat kebijakan yang mengesahkan kemerdekaan dalam belajar di era baru. Semua lapisan masyarakat harus menyiapkan diri untuk melakukan pembelajaran tanpa tatap muka melalui kegiatan online dengan memanfaatkan teknologi dalam kerangka belajar dari rumah. Pembelajaran di selenggarakan dengan menggunakan media online memberikan kesempatan kepada siswa untuk mengembangkan diri secara mandiri dengan dipandu oleh guru dalam pembelajaran jarak jauh (PJJ) melalui kelas online. Banyak masalah baru yang muncul, bukan hanya dihadapi siswa tapi juga oleh orang tua siswa dan guru. Hal ini disebabkan oleh belum terbiasa dengan PJJ. Masalah yang dihadapi guru adalah sulitnya mengontrol siswa apalagi membuat mereka belajar dengan serius dan efektif. Masalah yang dihadapi orang tua siswa adalah bukan hanya mereka tidak mempunyai kemampuan secara finansial untuk menyediakan perangkat teknologi informasi untuk melakukan kegiatan belajar tapi juga mereka tidak memiliki kemampuan kognitif yang cukup untuk mendampingi putra putrinya menyelesaikan masalah dalam pelajaran, Sehingga metode menarik diperlukan untuk menyelesaikan masalah ini. Bahasa Inggris sebagai bahasa asing adalah masalah besar bagi siswa dan orang tua untuk melakukan pembelajaran tanpa pendampingan guru secara langsung. Apalagi teks naratif adalah materi sulit untuk siswa SMP Negeri 2 Kepanjen kuasai. Peneliti menemukan bahwa metode learning by doing yang digagas oleh Dewey akan membantu peserta didik untuk lebih memahami teks naratif.Peneliti mencoba menerapkan metode ini kepada siswa kelas 9ASMP N 2 kepanjen tahun pelajaran 2020-2021. Setelah menerapkan metode yang digagas oleh Dewey ini ada peningkatan yang cukup signifikan dalam kemampuan memahami teks naratif. Ini bisa di lihat dari nilai yang mereka dapatkan. Kenaikan nilai mencapai 31,4%.

Abstract Background COVID-19 has profoundly impacted the healthcare education environment and telemedicine has been used to augment face-to-face learning and support social-distancing. There is little evidence which examines how patients feel about participating in teaching with this technology. Method A prospective survey of 229 surgical inpatients/outpatients was conducted at a university hospital between August–September 2020. The survey consisted of 31 questions (7-point Likert scales, quantitative items, and free-text answers) to explore: general attitudes towards teaching, attitudes towards COVID-19, perceptions of face-to-face teaching and perceptions of telemedicine teaching. Relationships between demographics and areas of interest were analysed qualitatively and quantitatively. Results Patients reported a positive attitude towards both face-to-face (mean 5.5 [1.1SD]) and telemedicine teaching (5.4 [1.2]) however there was a preference for the face-to-face approach (mean difference [MD]=.16, p = 0.14). Face-to-face teaching was found to be less bothersome (MD=.32, p=.002) and more rewarding (MD.33, p<.001). Older patients were more likely to report both teaching techniques as embarrassing (face-to-face r=.16, p=.048; telemedicine r=.15, p=.036) or as an infringement on their privacy (face-to-face r=.13, p=.048; telemedicine r=.17, p=.017). Qualitative analyses revealed four themes of the patient experience: apprentice role of students, communication skills, transient need for telemedicine during COVID-19 and privacy concerns. Conclusions Despite reporting a favourable impression of telemedicine teaching, patients prefer traditional face-to-face styles as they find telemedicine more bothersome and less rewarding. Educators should take this into consideration during planning of teaching during the pandemic.
