Popis: Due to the constantly changing environment in healthcare, nurses must be able to adjust their techniques, mindset, and strategies to provide excellent care for their patients. Nurses have to be able to provide emergent care, assess critically ill patients, and identify both obvious and subtle changes in healthcare status; therefore, nursing education must be unique. Nurses need to be educated using methods that improve critical thinking and utilize active learning. The flipped classroom is a strategy that has been introduced in nursing education, but there is a shortage of empirical research about flipped classrooms and a lack of information and congruency about this educational strategy. The authors investigated the issues involved with implementation of the flipped classroom. Additionally, they distributed a questionnaire to students and faculty members to determine their opinions about the flipped classroom technique. Many benefits and obstacles of flipped classrooms were identified through this study. This information will be valuable for nursing educators in determining if they want to implement flipped classrooms, how to best define a flipped classroom, how to incorporate the strategy, and what obstacles to be aware of.
