ABSTRACT : Research background is the concern about how to obtain better management for art education
regarding to the fact that it still struggles at Industry 3.0 level. Institutions for fine art education mostly deliver
the teaching in classical way, which is textbook based or reyling on demonstrative technique. In the other hand,
lecturers still inform techniques, principles and substances of art teachings in a way that forces students to learn
it manually. Therefore, current scholars assume that such art education is stagnant and incapable to serve
market‟s demand for skilled workers. This assumption was discussed by the coordinator organization for
Indonesian postgraduate study programs, FORPIMPAS (Forum Pimpinan Pascasarjana) in Parapat, Medan, on
September 26-29, 2019, which was attended by higher education institutions for teachings (LPTK) throughout
Indonesia. The Forum expects that the discussion will touch the mind of policy makers. Type of this research is
a documentative descriptive review. The data include papers, books, articles, and minutes of FORPIMPAS‟s
intensive discussion. Result of analysis is summarized as follows. Art education can realize its progressive
action when it (1) does curriculum transformation, (2) has a capability to adapt with social problems, and (3) has
a capability of management at proper effectiveness, flexibility and quality.

The Teacher Trainers’ Perceptions of the Challenges in Achieving Technologica...IJMCERJournal
ABSTRACT: The study examined the challenges in implementation of the Technological Pedagogical
Content Knowledge (TPCK) as a basis for 21st century learning and skills acquisition. The TPCK advocates for
adequate balance of content knowledge with pedagogy and technology. The study sampled one hundred and
twenty (120) teacher trainers whose status was senior lecturers and above in three Colleges of Education in Oyo
State, Nigeria to determine the problems of achieving TPCK in teacher education. An open ended questionnaire
which contained fifteen (15) statements on 4-point Likert scale was used as the only instrument. This allowed
the teacher trainers to freely express their opinions on the issues related to the implementation of TPCK in the
teacher education in Nigeria. The responses of the sampled teacher trainers were analysed using simple
percentage. The finding indicated that inadequacy in teacher preparation, teachers’ knowledge of application of
technology, inadequate technological facilities, mode of recruitment of teacher trainers, lack of teacher
motivation and irregular in-service training for the teacher trainers plague the implementation of TPCK in
Nigeria teacher education system. The study recommends adequate knowledge and application of technological
pedagogical content knowledge in teacher preparation, recruitment of teacher trainers, teacher motivation
through prompt payment salary, adequate provision of technological facilities and regular in-service training.
The study also suggested learning strategies that could be employed in teacher education to foster digital
literacy, critical thinking, problem solving and collaboration Keywords: Teacher education, pedagogical content

ABSTRACT: The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between the extent of students‟
reading comprehension and problem solving skills and identify teaching strategies that would address the
problem in teaching problem solving in Mathematics. The research utilized mixed explanatory design. The
subject consists of 189 grade 7 students who were part of the general section enrolled at Davao City National
High School. Purposive sampling was used in identifying the respondents taking the reading comprehension test
and problem solving test while random sampling was used in identifying participants for the key informant
interview. The result of the study revealed that students reading comprehension and problem solving skills were
at developing level. Moreover, reading comprehension skill was a predictor of problem solving skill. This
means that students‟ problem solving skill is dependent on their reading skills. Results also showed from the
conducted focus group discussion that students gave importance to vocabulary and main idea in learning
problem solving. Furthermore, using differentiated instruction was the identified best teaching strategy to
understand problem solving.
Differentiated instruction using tiered lessons in inorganic chemistryPremier Publishers
The paradigm shift in teaching and learning strategies has been a great challenge to every educator at present. The modern approach to teaching is utilized in order to prepare students to meet the needs of every industry in the global context. As a part of the change, this study utilizes Differentiated Instruction using the Tiered as a methodological approach to learning. It determined the performance of the students on several measures and tested for the significant difference between the scores of the two groups. The respondents of this study were BS in Fisheries students from Don Mariano Marcos Memorial State University-South La Union Campus. Two groups were randomly chosen, assigned as experimental group (N=30) and control group (N=30), and were matched according to their IQ. Pre-test, posttest, chapter test, and rubric-assessed outputs were used to assess the respondents’ performance. Frequency count, percentage, mean and t-test were employed to treat the data. The findings of the study showed significant improvement on the performance of the two groups in their posttest, chapter test, and in the outputs. The experimental group, however, performed better than the control group in the different performance measure. This implies that Differentiated instruction using Tiered Learning is an effective approach in the teaching and learning of Chemistry.

TRADITIONAL VERSUS BLENDED LEARNING METHOD: A COMPARATIVE STUDY ON ITS EFFECT...ijait
ABSTRACT
This article presents a descriptive comparative study on two methods of teaching, the traditional and blended learning pedagogical approach in a Business Communication course. Forty-four (44) students from the two controlled groups were enrolled in the course for the first semester of school year 2017-2018 participated in the study. The findings indicated that respondents’ performance in ENGL118 (English Composition) had an effect on their performance in BUS261(Business Communication) and there was a significant positive relationship between year level and final grade in BUS261. Therefore, it was concluded that the year level and grade in ENGL118 have correlationson student’sperformance in BUS261. The results of the assessments of the two groups were compared and indicated a significant difference in the results which was influenced by respondents’ year level and mode of conducting assessments. It is further concluded, that if the characteristics of both groups were the same, blended would have been more effective than the traditional method.This study recommends adopting the blended pedagogical approach not only in BUS261 course but also to other courses as applicable.
The document discusses a study that investigated Taiwanese college students' experiences learning English from native English-speaking teachers (NETs) in Taiwan. It provides background on cultural differences between Taiwanese and Western approaches to education. The study aimed to understand differences between students' expectations and experiences regarding teaching content/approach, and how students adjusted. It used questionnaires with 617 students and found significant differences between expectations/preferences and experiences, though not for one teaching approach item. Open-ended responses revealed how students adapted culturally and linguistically to their NETs' classes.
This document discusses a study that examined whether the poor English proficiency of English second language (ESL) teacher students affected the progress of ESL learners during support lessons. The study analyzed errors in portfolios of teacher students enrolled in an Advanced Certificate in Education program at the University of South Africa. The results showed similarities between the errors of teacher students and learners, suggesting the teachers' limited English skills may have negatively impacted learners' English acquisition. However, the document notes other factors could also influence learners and more research is needed.
OPEN LEARNING: KEY FOUNDATIONS OF PERSONAL LEARNING ENVIRONMENTijwscjournal
The concept of open education is one of the concepts that have taken a clear place on the academic map of higher education in many countries of the world. This type of education has become an important resource for universities to overcome many of the material and academic problems. The aim of this study is to analyse the role of open learning as the key foundations of personal learning environment. The interview respondents were nine teachers who are currently working with different open learning programs in Saudi Arabia. The nine teachers were from three different institutes in Saudi Arabia. It was identified through the interviews that the emergence of Open Textbooks, which is part of the broader movement known as Open Learning Resources, can help meet these challenges and improve the quality of the learning process. Higher textbooks for higher education students, especially middle school students, In the beginning of the last decade in the Saudi Arabia, to what is known as the "crisis of the textbook" and tried to solve many solutions to address the problem, such as the rental of the book to the student and the adoption of e-book and others, but the most prominent solutions are effective and impact, the emergence of non-profit organizations in cooperation.
Using studio based learning for enhancing efl preserviceAlexander Decker
This document summarizes a research study that investigated the effects of a studio-based learning approach on enhancing preservice English as a foreign language (EFL) teachers' pedagogical knowledge and pedagogical content knowledge. The study involved dividing participants into an experimental group that received training in a collaborative studio classroom focused on classroom management and lesson planning, and a control group that received traditional lectures on the same topics. Results of pre- and post-tests of pedagogical knowledge and an assessment of pedagogical content knowledge found that the experimental group performed significantly better, indicating that studio-based learning had a greater positive impact on developing these areas of teacher knowledge compared to traditional lecturing. The research recommends giving more
The document provides an overview of flipped learning based on a review of the literature. It defines flipped learning as moving direct instruction outside of class, typically through prerecorded videos for students to watch at home, so that class time can be used for active, application-based learning. The benefits discussed include developing higher-order thinking skills, increased student engagement and motivation, and better support for diverse learners. Challenges include ensuring students come to class prepared and teachers adapting to new roles. Practical examples of flipping include using screencasting or podcasting software to create video and audio lessons for students.

Competence and competency in higher education. competencey based educationThe University of Hull
Competence and competency in higher education, simple terms yet with complex meanings: Theoretical and practical issues for university teachers and assessors implementing Competency-Based Education (CBE).
Background/purpose – British, European and American universities are increasingly adopting competency-based learning, yet, there are different and conflicting definitions of competence, competency, and competency-based learning. Consequently, multiple interpretations and understandings are held by educators in respect of what these terms mean, when applied to their own teaching and assessment practices. Therefore, unless informed and considered discussion has taken place amongst staff about their individual understandings and interpretations, any development of new, competency-based assessment processes and procedures, is necessarily problematic. The main purpose of the paper is to stimulate reflection and discussion, so that teaching staff can arrive at a common understanding and interpretation of what competency-based education is, so that they may develop appropriate, authentic and equitable assessment processes.

Learning outcomes a good idea yet with problems and lost opportunitiesThe University of Hull
Learning outcomes are used throughout assessment processes in higher education. In many countries their use is mandatory, with a frequent assumption that they bring many positive benefits to educational processes. Yet, there are tensions associated with them and their current mode of use has far less flexibility than they should provide. This paper considers from a conceptual basis some of the tensions associated with the use of prescribed pre-articulated learning outcomes and the question of whether learning outcomes, as currently operationalized, provide the benefits they were meant to deliver. This is of significance to educators throughout higher
education.
Curriculum integration in social studies as predictor of academic performance...Alexander Decker
1) The document examines the relationship between curriculum integration in Social Studies and academic performance in Social Sciences.
2) It analyzes test score data from 140 students in Nigeria who took Social Studies (an integrated curriculum subject) and traditional social science subjects like Economics and Government.
3) The results show no strong statistical evidence that integrated curriculum leads to better performance. While Social Studies and Government showed the strongest relationship, other subject comparisons did not correlate well. This suggests curriculum integration may not significantly impact academic performance.

This document summarizes the results of a small-scale research project that investigated how university students use prescribed learning outcomes in their everyday learning and when producing assessed work. The study found that students did not refer to learning outcomes in their daily learning but typically did so when producing assessed work. There were also differences found between first-year and third-year students, with third-years making greater use of learning outcomes as they progressed in their degree program. However, no clear differences were seen between higher-achieving and lower-achieving students in their use of learning outcomes.
The quality improvement of human resources in the society 5.0 era in the 21st century is closely related to technology, and one of the ways this can be achieved is by using YouTube. Therefore, this research determined the differences in student cognitive learning outcomes and critical thinking before and after applying the YouTube-assisted discovery model in German Language Education Study Program at Pattimura University, Indonesia. A pseudo-experiment a pretest and posttest unequal control group design was used to obtain 20 2nd semester students who took the course Strukturen und Wortschatz zur Aufbaustufe A2.1. Furthermore, the sample determination used a proportional sampling technique. Data collection was done using the instrument in the form of essays tests to determine the cognitive learning and critical thinking outcomes, questionnaire sheets, and interviews. The paired T-test showed a value of p=0.000<α=0.05, indicating significant differences in cognitive learning outcomes and critical thinking skills before and after applying the YouTube-assisted discovery learning model. This was confirmed by an increase in the cognitive test scores and critical thinking of students after applying the learning model. Therefore, the results can be applied to other concepts in German language learning.

Exploring Innovative Pedagogies: A collaborative study of master’sstudents at...AJHSSR Journal
ABSTRACT:This research delves into the research of 45 students currently enrolled in the 'Teaching
Innovation' subject within the master's program for teaching in Compulsory Secondary Education,
Baccalaureate, Vocational Training, and Language Teaching at the Universitat Jaume I (UJI). The participants,
aged 23 to 25 years, specialize in Language and Literature and Language Teaching, focusing on English,
Catalan, and Spanish. The task assigned to the students involves collaborative research on innovative education.
Organized into 11 groups, participants explore key authors and scholars in the field. Subsequently, they craft
their own definitions of innovative education, elucidating methodologies and exemplifying best practices. The
results of this endeavour offer a nuanced understanding of innovative educational approaches such as
gamification, task-based approach, the use of ICTs, active or cooperative learning and provide valuable insights
for further exploration in the realm of education. The research unfolds on the Aula Virtual platform, the virtual
teaching and learning application employed at UJI. This platform aligns with the pedagogical principles of
social constructivism and accommodates diverse teaching and learning styles. The utilization of this platform
enhances the collaborative and interactive aspects of the research, fostering an environment conducive to
innovative educational exploration.
The findings from this study contribute to the ongoing discourse on innovative education by offering a
practitioner-focused perspective. They also underscore the significance of virtual platforms like Aula Virtual in
facilitating collaborative research and enriching the educational experience.

The aim of this study is to analyse the role of open learning as the key foundations of personal learning environment. The interview respondents were nine teachers who are currently working with different open learning programs in Saudi Arabia. The nine teachers were from three different institutes in Saudi Arabia. It was identified through the interviews that the emergence of Open Textbooks, which is part of the broader movement known as Open Learning Resources, can help meet these challenges and improve the quality of the learning process. Higher textbooks for higher education students, especially middle school students, In the beginning of the last decade in the Saudi Arabia, to what is known as the "crisis of the textbook" and tried to solve many solutions to address the problem, such as the rental of the book to the student and the adoption of e-book and others, but the most prominent solutions are effective and impact, the emergence of non-profit organizations in cooperation.
Using studio based learning for enhancing efl preserviceAlexander Decker
This document summarizes a research study that investigated the effects of a studio-based learning approach on enhancing preservice English as a foreign language (EFL) teachers' pedagogical knowledge and pedagogical content knowledge. The study involved dividing participants into an experimental group that received training in a collaborative studio classroom focused on classroom management and lesson planning, and a control group that received traditional lectures on the same topics. Results of pre- and post-tests of pedagogical knowledge and an assessment of pedagogical content knowledge found that the experimental group performed significantly better, indicating that studio-based learning had a greater positive impact on developing these areas of teacher knowledge compared to traditional lecturing. The research recommends giving more
The document provides an overview of flipped learning based on a review of the literature. It defines flipped learning as moving direct instruction outside of class, typically through prerecorded videos for students to watch at home, so that class time can be used for active, application-based learning. The benefits discussed include developing higher-order thinking skills, increased student engagement and motivation, and better support for diverse learners. Challenges include ensuring students come to class prepared and teachers adapting to new roles. Practical examples of flipping include using screencasting or podcasting software to create video and audio lessons for students.

Competence and competency in higher education. competencey based educationThe University of Hull
Competence and competency in higher education, simple terms yet with complex meanings: Theoretical and practical issues for university teachers and assessors implementing Competency-Based Education (CBE).
Background/purpose – British, European and American universities are increasingly adopting competency-based learning, yet, there are different and conflicting definitions of competence, competency, and competency-based learning. Consequently, multiple interpretations and understandings are held by educators in respect of what these terms mean, when applied to their own teaching and assessment practices. Therefore, unless informed and considered discussion has taken place amongst staff about their individual understandings and interpretations, any development of new, competency-based assessment processes and procedures, is necessarily problematic. The main purpose of the paper is to stimulate reflection and discussion, so that teaching staff can arrive at a common understanding and interpretation of what competency-based education is, so that they may develop appropriate, authentic and equitable assessment processes.

Learning outcomes a good idea yet with problems and lost opportunitiesThe University of Hull
Learning outcomes are used throughout assessment processes in higher education. In many countries their use is mandatory, with a frequent assumption that they bring many positive benefits to educational processes. Yet, there are tensions associated with them and their current mode of use has far less flexibility than they should provide. This paper considers from a conceptual basis some of the tensions associated with the use of prescribed pre-articulated learning outcomes and the question of whether learning outcomes, as currently operationalized, provide the benefits they were meant to deliver. This is of significance to educators throughout higher
education.
Curriculum integration in social studies as predictor of academic performance...Alexander Decker
1) The document examines the relationship between curriculum integration in Social Studies and academic performance in Social Sciences.
2) It analyzes test score data from 140 students in Nigeria who took Social Studies (an integrated curriculum subject) and traditional social science subjects like Economics and Government.
3) The results show no strong statistical evidence that integrated curriculum leads to better performance. While Social Studies and Government showed the strongest relationship, other subject comparisons did not correlate well. This suggests curriculum integration may not significantly impact academic performance.

This document summarizes the results of a small-scale research project that investigated how university students use prescribed learning outcomes in their everyday learning and when producing assessed work. The study found that students did not refer to learning outcomes in their daily learning but typically did so when producing assessed work. There were also differences found between first-year and third-year students, with third-years making greater use of learning outcomes as they progressed in their degree program. However, no clear differences were seen between higher-achieving and lower-achieving students in their use of learning outcomes.
The quality improvement of human resources in the society 5.0 era in the 21st century is closely related to technology, and one of the ways this can be achieved is by using YouTube. Therefore, this research determined the differences in student cognitive learning outcomes and critical thinking before and after applying the YouTube-assisted discovery model in German Language Education Study Program at Pattimura University, Indonesia. A pseudo-experiment a pretest and posttest unequal control group design was used to obtain 20 2nd semester students who took the course Strukturen und Wortschatz zur Aufbaustufe A2.1. Furthermore, the sample determination used a proportional sampling technique. Data collection was done using the instrument in the form of essays tests to determine the cognitive learning and critical thinking outcomes, questionnaire sheets, and interviews. The paired T-test showed a value of p=0.000<α=0.05, indicating significant differences in cognitive learning outcomes and critical thinking skills before and after applying the YouTube-assisted discovery learning model. This was confirmed by an increase in the cognitive test scores and critical thinking of students after applying the learning model. Therefore, the results can be applied to other concepts in German language learning.
A Practical Case Study Exploring How Flipped Learning Affects The Development...Sarah Brown
The document summarizes a case study that explored how flipped learning affected the development of problem-solving skills in law and computing students. It found that the flipped classroom approach increased student participation and engagement, supported the development of critical thinking and problem-solving skills, and promoted deeper learning. For both cohorts, lectures were prerecorded and class time was used for interactive activities and applying concepts to real-world scenarios. Student feedback indicated that the flipped approach made their understanding easier and helped develop independent work and problem-solving skills.
Summary
It is unquestionable that we have a process of change and innovation in the Spanish University system. The new European Framework of Education at Universities (EEES), will have important changes. Not only changes in the formative itinerary of university degrees, but also in the establishment of teaching-learning methodologies with the purpose to develop key competences in future Spanish professionals.
From that perspective, the introduction of participative methodologies in classrooms is going to deal with relevant learnings; basic abilities for the learning are going to be developed. It allows new possibilities to develop teaching, as well as overcome the traditional concept of classroom. This report gets the opinions and aspects of the students in the case of teachers’ degrees: Speciality of Childhood Education, related to the application of innovative teaching-learning strategies in their formation, facing the incorporation of the EEES
Exploring Innovative Pedagogies: A collaborative study of master’sstudents at...AJHSSR Journal
ABSTRACT:This research delves into the research of 45 students currently enrolled in the 'Teaching
Innovation' subject within the master's program for teaching in Compulsory Secondary Education,
Baccalaureate, Vocational Training, and Language Teaching at the Universitat Jaume I (UJI). The participants,
aged 23 to 25 years, specialize in Language and Literature and Language Teaching, focusing on English,
Catalan, and Spanish. The task assigned to the students involves collaborative research on innovative education.
Organized into 11 groups, participants explore key authors and scholars in the field. Subsequently, they craft
their own definitions of innovative education, elucidating methodologies and exemplifying best practices. The
results of this endeavour offer a nuanced understanding of innovative educational approaches such as
gamification, task-based approach, the use of ICTs, active or cooperative learning and provide valuable insights
for further exploration in the realm of education. The research unfolds on the Aula Virtual platform, the virtual
teaching and learning application employed at UJI. This platform aligns with the pedagogical principles of
social constructivism and accommodates diverse teaching and learning styles. The utilization of this platform
enhances the collaborative and interactive aspects of the research, fostering an environment conducive to
innovative educational exploration.
The findings from this study contribute to the ongoing discourse on innovative education by offering a
practitioner-focused perspective. They also underscore the significance of virtual platforms like Aula Virtual in
facilitating collaborative research and enriching the educational experience.

Fascination is a project for design students, developed jointly by the Technical University of Catalonia
(UPC) and the University of Technology Thonburi (KMUTT), which works with two groups of students,
one group of participants in Spain and another group in Thailand where, hands-on activities, a range
of technologies are used to prepare students for the lessons, through learning activities and content.
This research paper presents the test of both a general model and a tool for measuring the
participants’ experiences in a course that uses a blended learning methodology, with the aim of
collecting empirical evidence to justify the effort of applying this methodology, based on the
participants’ satisfaction. The procedure used in the conceptualization of the survey, the generation of
topics, the collection of data, and the validation of the scale of various items are described here. The
information, provided by the 26 people surveyed about the course and the virtual environment that
was used, was analyzed to measure their perceptions and explore possible relations. Finally the
conclusions of the research and the future work are presented.
This document summarizes a case study that implemented a flipped classroom approach to teaching biology in a Greek high school. The study aimed to investigate how flipped classroom could work as a complementary distance education method. Researchers implemented flipped classroom for a biology class on photosynthesis using the LAMS online platform. Students watched video lectures at home and did activities in class with teacher support. Findings showed that flipped classroom improved time management in class and increased student involvement in learning. However, the study also faced some difficulties in implementing the new approach. Overall, the results suggest flipped classroom has potential to enhance school education when combined with distance learning methods.
The document discusses two social constructivist programs - Fostering a Community of Learners (FCL) and Schools for Thought (SFT). FCL focuses on literacy and biology development through reflection, discussion, and collaboration between students and experts. SFT combines aspects of the Jasper Project, FCL, and CSILE to emphasize problem-based learning, extended inquiry projects, and collaboration using technology. Both programs aim to develop deeper understanding through social interaction and real-world problem solving rather than traditional instruction.
This study focused on developing information literacy skills and global competencies among teacher candidates through project-based learning modules. Participants studied myths about higher education by researching the topic and creating posters presenting their findings. They gained a renewed understanding of and commitment to their education program. The study showed that project-based activities using new technologies can help develop critical thinking and global perspectives when integrated into teacher education courses.

This document discusses the flipped classroom model of education. It describes how the flipped classroom shifts instruction to a learner-centered approach by delivering content outside of class, such as through videos and online documents, to free up more class time for activities and exploration of topics. The teacher takes on more of a facilitator role to answer questions and help students build knowledge together. The flipped classroom is presented as an active method for both basic and higher education that better prepares students and adapts to the new student profile of being involved in control, context, and communication.
This research aimed to analyze the effectivity of students’ worksheet based on multiple representation in order to increase creative thinking skills for second years students of junior high school. It used quasi-experiment with nonequivalent control group design. The population of this research was students of class VII SMPN 3 Langsa, academic year of 2017/2018. Then, the samples were students of class VII-1 and VII-2 elected using simple random sampling method. Basically, the effectivity can be seen from students’ creative thinking skills analyzed by using average n-gain and independent sample T test. Furthermore, the result showed that there was an average difference for n-gain and significant score between control class and experiment class. Therefore, the students’ worksheet based on multiple representations can be used for increasing creative thinking skills of students.

The study aimed to identify the attitudes of students of open education
towards the flipped class strategy of the opposite grade and its relation to
self-learning skills. To achieve the goals of the study, the measure of the
direction towards education was constructed in the opposite grade and the
self-learning skills scale. The sample of the study consisted of 60 male and
female students of higher diploma in education studying the decisions of the
educational administration and Educational Psychology in the Arab Open
University/Jordan. The results of the study showed a positive trend for
university students towards education in the opposite grade, with the
percentage of the trends as a whole 90%. The results also showed a positive
correlation between each of the students' attitudes toward education in the
opposite grade and each of the variables (academic motivation, selfmonitoring,
self-learning skills, self-learning writing skills), and no
correlation between students' and skills in dealing with information
technology.
This document presents a pedagogical framework for cross-cultural online collaborative projects in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) classrooms. The framework was developed based on qualitative data from three cross-cultural collaborative projects. The framework guides students through two stages - a "knowing" stage where they construct knowledge to solve a problem, and a "doing" stage where they apply their knowledge to create project products like digital stories. The document analyzes examples of cross-cultural projects between Taiwan and other countries that followed this framework, with students first learning about a topic and then collaborating online to produce a final project.

This document discusses blended learning and its effectiveness in developing concepts and thinking skills. It defines blended learning as combining online and traditional learning, taking advantage of different learning theories. There are five key components of blended learning identified: teacher-led interactions, self-paced interactions, collaborative activities, pre-assessments, and supplemental materials. The philosophy of blended learning is to utilize technology to create new learning situations and simulate active, individualized, learner-centered education. It has advantages like flexibility, increased participation, and better communication compared to solely online or traditional approaches.

This document summarizes a study that examined how weblogs were used to create communities of learning among students in a higher education course. The study found that the 76 students formed into groups of 6-7 students and each group created a weblog. By contributing to and interacting on each other's weblogs, the students were able to share knowledge, provide peer support and encouragement, and work towards common learning goals as a community. The weblogs allowed the students to learn from each other in a way that transcended boundaries and helped develop their identities as members of the learning community. The study concluded that communities of learning can result in significant student learning when supported by technologies like weblogs.

Abstract—Dialogical learning and teamwork have become the principles de-
manded by the knowledge society, given that we are currently living in a com-
pletely globalised world that requires skilled citizens to collaborate on a social,
professional and academic level. Likewise, creativity is another key element re-
quested by organisations to solve problems. Against this background, some stu-
dent-centred teaching methods like flipped classrooms are appearing. Therefore,
this paper aimed to analyse the implementation of the flipped classroom method
as a factor to develop dialogical learning and creativity. To this regard, a quanti-
tative method was used, applying a survey prepared ad hoc to a sample of 308
students from Spain and Colombia, in order to know whether implementing the
flipped classroom truly enhances the development of such skills. According to
the results obtained, it is stated that developing the flipped classroom method
promotes a team-based work dynamic, which generates dialogical learning
among students. It also enhances creativity, since it provides students with auton-
omy to carry out their tasks. Finally, the flipped classroom pedagogical approach
is a teaching method with numerous advantages and benefits for students to adapt
to the competencies required by the knowledge society.
Keywords—Flipped Classroom, Dialogical Learning, Creativity, Teaching

1 Introduction
In recent years, the Flipped Classroom methodology is being implemented in the
classrooms of different educational levels, which it is defined as the flipped of roles in
the classroom, where the student acquires the theoretical knowledge outside and the
classroom becomes a propitious space for resolving doubts and cooperative work [1,
2]. Therefore, the student previously works the contents outside the school context from
the use of digital tools to develop them later in the classroom.
The flipped classroom teaching method is offered as a key pedagogical approach in
this process of change. It began with Bergmann and Sams’ [2] concern, who started to
record their presentations with audio to offer them as student support material, with the

aim of confronting school absenteeism. Based on this experience, they noticed that this
teaching method promoted student learning. The flipped classroom is defined as a role
inversion within the classroom [3]. Therefore, students acquire theoretical knowledge
outside of the classroom, and the classroom turns into a space to solve queries and for
teamwork [4].
This approach is characterised by the use of technology and a change in the use of
time, that is to say, students complete class tasks in the home environment and house-
work in the classroom [5].
On the other hand, some different studies relate the implementation of the flipped
classroom method to the improvement of academic performance [3, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11,
12]. Furthermore, it is possible to highlight the development of transversal skills, which
are beneficial for students, not only on the personal, academic and social sphere, but
also for professional purposes: teamwork [2, 13], motivation [11, 14], autonomy [8, 9,
15] and creativity [12, 16]. Nevertheless, although the benefits of carrying out flipped
classrooms start to be empirically reported, some authors express the necessity to keep
doing research on the results of this method [5]. Others, however, show that there are
no differences between groups using the flipped classroom model and those following
a traditional method [17, 18]. Other authors, like Barao and Palau [19], warn about the
effectiveness of the flipped classroom depending on the field of knowledge where this
method is applied.
Taking into account these considerations, this study aimed to analyse the implemen-
tation of the flipped classroom method as a factor for the development of dialogical
learning and creativity in Colombian and Spanish university students. These skills are
paramount in the completely globalised world in which we are living, which requires
citizens who are capable of solving problems efficiently and collaborating at a social,
professional and academic level [20].
One of the key aspects is dialogical learning, which is based on the premises of Ha-
bermas’ communicative action theory [21]. That is, the maximum exponent in the dia-
logue process for building discourse from a philosophic perspective, considering the
principles of influence, behavioural change, audience image and negotiation. From a
more pedagogical perspective, Flecha [22] defines dialogical learning as the interaction
produced from an egalitarian dialogue, where knowledge building starts on a social
level.
Therefore, the interactions allowed by the flipped classroom foster egalitarian dia-
logue within the classroom context, thanks to teamwork. In this sense, participating in
a peer group fixes the conditions for all students from the same starting point [23], thus
enhancing an egalitarian dialogue that has a positive impact on learning improvement
[24].
The second key aspect -creativity- is intrinsically related to dialogical learning, since
discourse promotes creativity through collaborative work [25]. This process is sup-
ported by conceptions of creative connectivity, leaving behind the predominant view of
the creative impulse from intellect [26]. On top of that, the students’ autonomous status,
enhanced by flipped classrooms, intervenes directly in the development of creativity
[27]. In parallel, some more recent studies connect the implementation of flipped class-
room to an increase of creativity among students [7].

Therefore, both the knowledge and the analysis of the flipped classroom method
focused in this case on the university environment are of interest. Its different implica-
tions in learning could clarify important evidence to generally implement a successful
professional model that can promote dialogical learning and creativity among students.
2 Method
The method applied in this work was quantitative with the aim of describing the
reality observed [28]. The possibility of quantifying the relationships between the latent
variables helped with gathering verifiable and rigorous data. It also enabled us to ap-
proach more exactly the subject of study topic by making visible those aspects that were
not apparent in the first instance.
2.1 Participants
The sample involved students of two different universities (n = 308), from a popula-
tion of 570 students of whom belonged to the Pontifical Bolivarian University of Bu-
caramanga (Colombia) and the remaining 550 studied at the University of Granada
(Spain). This group of participants is characterised by being, in the case of the Colom-
bian students, from the scientific branch of economics and business, while the Spanish
students came from the area of education. As for gender, 95 were men (30.8%) and 213
women (69.2%). The age range was between 18 and 49 years old (M = 21.75, SD =
4.361).
Given the circumstances and the ethical engagement of scientific research [29], a
simple random sampling was chosen for this work. The participants were randomly
selected through a raffle that fixed the letter "M" of the surname as the beginning to
choose the students. After selecting the first, the others were selected respecting a mar-
gin of two students in the list until reaching the significant sample size (n = 156 in
Colombia and n = 152 in Spain), with a confidence interval of 95% and a margin of 7%
error.
2.2 Data collection
Data have been collected during the 2017-2018 academic year, by using a survey as
a data-gathering instrument. It was prepared ad hoc, in a 4-level Likert scale (1 –
Strongly disagree, 2 - Disagree, 3 - Agree, 4 – Strongly agree). It was made up of 10
items, divided into the following dimensions:
Implementation of the flipped classroom method: Do you think that your degree
of motivation towards the subject and its contents has been greater when using the in-
novative Flipped Classroom methodology in class? (I1), Did you find it interesting that
the contents of the subject have been taught differently from the traditional one? (I2),
Have you found it interesting to learn the contents through audiovisual resources such
as videos or multimedia documents to access the contents of the subject? (I3), Has the

autonomous work time spent at home to work the contents of the subject been profita-
ble? (I4), Do you think the change in methodology (from traditional to Flipped Class-
room) has influenced your academic performance? (I5), Do you consider that the
change in methodology (from traditional to Flipped Classroom) has influenced your
content retention, being this better and more lasting? (I6) and I find it very appropriate
to carry out practical exercises in class related to the theoretical contents (I10).
Dialogical learning: I prefer to work the contents in a group in a collaborative way
(I8) and I consider it very positive and enriching to have worked group activities (I9).
Creativity: Do you consider that the change in methodology (from traditional to
Flipped Classroom) has influenced the development of your creativity when creating
activities? (I7).
An exploratory factor analysis was carried out to determine the representative factors
of the data. It was initially shown that the total variance was 58.275% for first item,
related to students’ motivation when implementing the flipped classroom. The Kaiser
Meyer Olkin measure sample adequacy (KMO) collects an adequate value (KMO =
.906) and the Bartlett test of sphericity revealed a chi-square of 1867.958, 45 DF with
significance of .000.
An analysis of the reliability of the instrument determined adequate levels with
Cronbach’s Alpha (α = .918) and Guttman’s split-half coefficient (.88).
2.3 Data analysis
The different analyses were carried out through the data analysis software SPSS and
AMOS version 24. More specifically, SPSS was used to establish descriptive-statistical
data and a comparison between the Colombian and Spanish populations through the t-
test.
Subsequently, a structural equations model (SEM) [30] was used to verify the rela-
tionship between the different latent variables - flipped classroom, dialogical learning
and creativity. The descriptive-statistical values of variables in terms of mean, standard
deviation, skewness or kurtosis reflect the multivariate normality of data (table 1). This
is a key condition to carry out a model of structural equations [31].
The skewness and the kurtosis have appropriate values, since skewness shows values
of < 2 and kurtosis < 7 [32].

3 Results
Since there were two populations from different contexts and academic disciplines,
the t-test was used to compare both groups. The subscales compared were academic
performance, dialogical learning, and creativity, once the flipped classroom was imple-
mented. The analysis showed that there are statistically significant differences between
the Colombian and Spanish university students (p-value < .05).
In the academic performance item, Colombian students obtain a higher mean with
more homogeneous scores (M = 3.74, SD = .506) than Spanish students show (M =
3.25, SD = .674). The p-value reveals the significance of data between the groups (p-
value = .001) (table 2).
Table 2. Test t academic performance
Groups N Mean SD t df p-value
Colombia 156 3.74 .506 7.28 306 .001
Spain 152 3.25 .674
Note: SD = Standard Deviation.
The dialogical learning data are similar to the above-mentioned item – scores remain
higher and more homogeneous in the Colombian group (M = 3.69, SD = .599). The
Spanish group has lower mean values and has higher spread (M = 3.32, SD = .732). The
difference between the groups remains significant (p-value = .001) (table 3).

Groups N Mean SD t df p-value
Colombia 156 3.69 .599 4.86 306 .001
Spain 152 3.32 .732
Note: SD = Standard Deviation.
Under creativity, Colombian students show again higher scores and less spread (M
= 3.73, SD = .537) than the valued obtained by the Spanish students (M = 3.32, SD =
.635). The significance between the groups is clear through the p-value obtained (p-
value = .001) (table 4).

Note: SD = Standard Deviation.
On the other hand, the covariance and the correlation among the different latent var-
iables were calculated through the SEM (table 5). It was decided to add the variable
“motivation” in order to verify its connection to the flipped classroom model. Likewise,
a positive covariance and correlation are shown in the reliance of the flipped classroom
on motivation (cov = 1.039, R = 1) and creativity (cov = 1.124, R = 1). Furthermore,

the interdependency between the flipped classroom and dialogical learning is confirmed
(cov = .174, R = .724). However, data reveal that dialogical learning does not have an
impact on creativity (cov = -.009, R = -.011).
CR index values (> 1.96) determined the significance of p-value at .05 [30], in which
the relationships between flipped classroom–motivation, flipped classroom–dialogical
learning and flipped classroom-creativity are significant.

Note: FC = Flipped Classroom; M = Motivation; DL = Dialogical Learning; C = Creativity; SE = Standard
Error; CR = Critical Radio; p-value *** = X < .001.
Goodness-of-fit indexes indicate the accuracy of the model with reality [33]. Ade-
quate values have been found in the root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA
= .095), goodness-of-fit index (GFI = .922), root mean squared residual index (RMR =
.015), non-normed fit index (TLI = .933), parsimonious goodness-of-fit index (PGFI =
.553). Similarly, the comparative fit index (CFI = .951) has acceptable values, estab-
lishing that 95% of data covariance can be reproduced using this model.
Finally, the SEM is comprised of four latent variables (figure 1). The first one,
flipped classroom (FC), is defined by six items observable with regression values rang-
ing from .64 to .86. Dialogical learning (DL) is defined by three items with values rang-
ing from .83 to .92. Creativity (C) and motivation (M) each involve one item with a
regression value of .75.

4 Discussion
The different statistical tests carried out brought about knowledge of important per-
ceptions of the flipped classroom model and its influence on the development of dia-
logical learning and creativity. Therefore, this paper followed the research line on the
results and implications of flipped classrooms, improving knowledge of this teaching
method and making progress in its field of study [5].
The data obtained about the significant differences between the Colombian and the
Spanish populations are interesting. Thus, the context of execution of flipped classroom
have an impact on its implementation. In this case, the implementation in the Colom-
bian university context within the fields of economics and business shows higher mean
and less spread than the Spanish case in the field of education.
The differences could be caused in the first instance by the field of specialization
[19]. The way of teaching in a scientific field differs from others, due to the teachers’
academic training and the pedagogical tradition of the institution. It would therefore be
interesting if future studies analysed different areas of knowledge that apply a flipped
classroom pedagogical approach, in order to find out the improvement level depending
on the academic specialisation.
To sum up, students perceive how their academic performance improves after expe-
riencing the flipped classroom method, where the mean has positive values. These facts
match the studies remarking that the flipped classroom enhances students’ academic
performance [3, 6, 7, 8, 9; 10, 11, 12].
On the other hand, the SEM allowed establishment of the covariance and correlation
between items [30, 31]. The premise that the flipped classroom improves students’ mo-
tivation is confirmed [11, 14], and is illustrated in the perfect correlation obtained. To
this regard, students perceive how their motivation towards the subject increases when
a more autonomous and flexible work dynamic is applied [2, 3], through the use of
technologies [5].
Creativity is also enhanced in an inverted working environment. The analysis of data
gathers the perfect correlation between this capacity and the flipped classroom, in line
with what other studies have highlighted [12, 16]. Likewise, the mean values of both
groups are positive in relation to Likert’s scale. This leads us to think that the autonomy
that flipped classrooms allow [8, 9, 15] has a direct impact on the creative process and
increases creativity [27].
These results also confirm that dialogical learning correlates positively with the
flipped classroom. In other words, implementing this teaching method develops a dia-
logical learning among students. In this sense, teamwork plays a key role as one of the
basic skills that are intrinsically implemented through the flipped classroom [2, 13).
The thread linking teamwork and dialogical learning is set in the way in which dialogue
arises [21, 22], in an almost forced way in a teamwork environment fostered by the
flipped classroom [24].
Finally, the positive correlation between flipped classroom–dialogical learning and
the flipped classroom–creativity influence have been verified in this work. However,
when relating dialogical learning–creativity, the facts show a negative connection. This

fact draws our attention, as the social and dialogical conception should promote the
development of creativity [25, 26].
5 Conclusion
Step by step the education system is being filled with innovations that are resulting
in a paradigmatic change. These kinds of emergent methods based on the use of tech-
nologies put teachers to one side and, hence, students take the major role.
The flipped classroom method turns into a pedagogical approach aligned with the
demands of the knowledge society. The benefits related to its implementation allow
students to develop different skills that are key to executing efficient performance in
their academic, social and work environments.
The teamwork produced in a flipped classroom environment is not only limited to a
monological framework, but students’ autonomous research stimulates curiosity to
share their knowledge with peers. Therefore, a reciprocal and peer-to-peer dialogue is
produced. In the same way, autonomy has an impact on creativity development. The
fact that students have a certain liberty and flexibility in learning tasks allows them to
include different aspects that complement their work. This happens even more fre-
quently by using technologies that enrich the information and provide them with an
unlimited source of resources to improve the learning process.
The focus is on the dialogical learning-creativity relationship. In our analysis the
negative values on the impact of those factors show that the group dialogue generated
when carrying out the tasks does not promote a creative process. It would be convenient
to keep on analysing this relationship in future studies in order to check whether these
facts are replicated.
The data on the model of structural equations have brought to light the links between
latent variables that were not observable a priori, exposing the relationship of these
phenomena. As a result, there is graphic evidence of the complex relationships between
the different factors that are the subject of study.
It is important to remark that, among the education specialities, implementing these
kinds of pedagogical approaches is double faceted. On the one hand, as stated in this
study and the quoted literature, it leads to students’ skills development and the improve-
ment of learning. On the other hand, applying new teaching methods allows students to
have first-hand experience of their dynamics and be aware of the benefits of using them,
so that in future they could reproduce in their classrooms the method experienced whilst
being a student.
Finally, this paper has answered the aim of analysing the implementation of flipped
classrooms as a factor for the development of both dialogical learning and creativity in
Colombian and Spanish university students, by covering all the different implications
of the flipped classroom and its relation with these paramount aspects of modern-day
society.
