Investigating the Impact of a Flipped Classroom Approach for a Teacher and Students in Year 9 in the Topic of Linear Equations

Abstract

Access to technology in secondary education has increased substantially over recent years, affording new opportunities for teaching and learning. A technology-enabled flipped classroom is one approach that can be implemented when technology is readily available. This research investigated the impact and efficacy of a technology-enabled flipped classroom in secondary mathematics for the students and teacher. Students’ understanding of solving linear equations, their attitude to mathematics and experiences in the flipped classroom were investigated. The experiences and perspectives of the teacher in implementing a flipped classroom for the first time were also explored. Comparisons between two..
