Abstrakt: | Objective The effectiveness of the flipped classroom is currently debated due to conflicting results from different studies. It is therefore important to evaluate its usefulness each time it is applied in a new setting. Thus, this study was conducted with the objective of evaluating the effectiveness and acceptability of the flipped classroom in undergraduate medical education at the College of Medicine, Alfaisal University. Methods This was a quasi-experimental study consisting of development and administration of a flipped classroom with one group of students receiving the flipped classroom (FG) and the other group with the traditional lecture-based teaching (LG). We compared the pre-university enrolment Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA), preceding progress test results and previous semester performance for the two groups, which showed no statistical difference. Results Since the FG had received the video lecture while the LG had not, there was a clear statistical difference between the groups with FG showing better performance in pre-test scores. The post-test performances were marginally not statistically different between FG and LG groups. Conclusion Our results did not show any long-term benefit of a flipped classroom in terms of retention of knowledge as manifested by grades obtained in midterm and final examinations. It was also not received positively by the students. Competing Interests: The authors have declared that no competing interests exist. (Copyright © 2020, Sajid et al.) |
