The Flipped Classroom Model: an active strategy for face-to-face and remote learning

Abstract

The Flipped Classroom model embraces as a possibility in the teaching and learning process, and with the emergence of the Covid-19 Pandemic, the reflections for other proposals in the educational context have intensified.  Thus, this research aims to reflect on the teachers' perception of the Flipped Classroom model as an active strategy in the teaching and learning process. The research has a qualitative and quantitative approach and was designed for 132 teachers of the Pelotas - Visconde da Graça Campus of the Instituto Federal Sul-rio-grandense with the application of a questionnaire using Google Forms with open and closed questions in the period from December 2020 to January 2021. The results showed that these teachers are willing to implement and learn about other proposals in the educational context, and have an understanding of Blended Learning and specifically of the model outlined. Despite the small number of participants, this research is considered a provocation for future studies, since it is a contemporary, relevant, and increasingly discussed theme.
