How can flipped learning continue in a fully online environment? Lessons learned during the COVID-19 pandemic

Teachers and students have had an unusual experience in 2020. Due to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, regular teaching and learning in schools is suspended in many countries. The prolonged school closure has presented unprecedented challenges because all teaching and learning activities have had to be converted to a fully online format. This article reports on an attempt to sustain flipped learning using real-time online instruction. A flipped lesson on the cross-disciplinary applications of linear systems (i.e., balancing chemical equations) is presented in detail. Student feedback and the lessons learned from the experience are discussed. Copyright © 2022 Informa UK Limited.
