Advance HE Teaching & Learning Conference 2018: Perceptions on the flipped classroom approach for a large Engineering module

A learning and teaching project was undertaken to implement and evaluate the flipped classroom approach in a large (120 students) Engineering module. After discussing the implementation this oral presentation explores the perceptions of the students experiencing the implementation and the staff employing the approach. To assess students’ perceptions the evaluation was conducted using a pre- and post-module questionnaire on students’ attitudes towards learning focus groups to gain greater depth of understanding and formal module evaluation. The presentation will highlight the benefits and positive attributes of the delivery method balanced by consideration of the challenges and effort associated with implementing the approach.
