Popis: Unlike the traditional method of teaching, new educational trends focus on transforming learning environments into spaces where the teacher is a guide and not the provider of information. This article presents a proposal for a flipped classroom approach to teaching an entry level undergraduate law course. The implementation of the flipped approach, which was supported by ICT-based virtual learning environment, took place at the University of the Andes (Bogotá, Colombia). The qualitative and quantitative results of this methodology show its positive contribution to promoting student autonomy in the learning process, collaborative work and articulation between theory and practice (learning by doing) while strengthening lawyering skills.
