Designing Flipped Learning Activities For Beginner Programming Course, Benjamin Gan, Eng Lieh Ouh Jul 2022

Designing Flipped Learning Activities For Beginner Programming Course, Benjamin Gan, Eng Lieh Ouh

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

This study focuses on designing flipped classroom learning activities across pre-class problem-based exercises; with in-class active discussions and practical problem-solving sessions; and follow up with postclass problem-based labs and assessments. We evaluate the effectiveness of our learning activities based on student surveys, course feedback, grades, and teacher feedback for a beginner programming course with non-IS students. We describe detail programming learning activities with comparisons to existing practices based on related work. Our findings are that majority of students (86%) agreed with flipped classroom, but teachers should be aware of the 14% who disagreed and cater for them. Teachers should avoid …


Flip & Slack – Active Flipped Classroom Learning With Collaborative Slack Interactions, Kyong Jin Shim, Gottipati Swapna, Yi Meng Lau Nov 2021

Flip & Slack – Active Flipped Classroom Learning With Collaborative Slack Interactions, Kyong Jin Shim, Gottipati Swapna, Yi Meng Lau

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Active flipped classroom learning is stipulated with faculty structuring the activities involving constructive interactions, either formal or informal. Sharing ideas and responding to ideas improve the cognitive skills of the students. Encouraging peers to contribute to class activities and respecting peers contribute to the development of affective skills. We present an integrated platform for cognitive and affective skills development. A flipped classroom arrangement allows the faculty to focus more on in-class activities such as programming and lab exercises to support active learning in computing courses. We share the design of an innovative flipped classroom model integrated with Slack and present …


Teaching Tip: The Flipped Classroom, Heng Ngee Mok Oct 2018

Teaching Tip: The Flipped Classroom, Heng Ngee Mok

The flipped classroom has been gaining popularity in recent years. In theory, flipping the classroom appears sound: passive learning activities such as unidirectional lectures are pushed to outside class hours in the form of videos, and precious class time is spent on active learning activities. Yet the courses for information systems (IS) undergraduates at the university that the author is teaching at are still conducted in the traditional lecture-in-class, homework-after-class style. In order to increase students’ engagement with the course content and to improve their experience with the course, the author implemented a trial of the flipped classroom model for …
