With Flipped Learning, the core learning materials are delivered through viewing video clips prior to attending classes. Hence, the class time can be devoted to higher level learning activities, such as the application of the learning materials in problem solving, group discussions and collaborative learning with instant feedback and coaching support from teachers. Flipped learning facilitates active learning and higher level learning with support by teachers and their classmates.
IVE successfully get funding support from QEF to their project named “Developing a Community of Practice of Flipped Learning for ICT Teachers”. The project have the following targets :
- Promotion of shift of learning paradigm from passive to active, interactive, student-directed and higher level learning
- Better support for students of different learning needs. Students can control their own learning pace. Lessons and content are more easily accessible.
- More in-depth learning and better problem solving and programming skills
- Ready-to-use learning materials and reduction of effort for starting up flipped learning by the ICT teachers
- Support for IT taster programmes for junior secondary school students as STEM education activities and Career and Life Planning activities in secondary schools. The learning materials can be used in IT taster programmes for junior secondary school students.
- Evaluation of the effectiveness of flipped learning in senior secondary ICT curriculum
