Popis: The flipped classroom has been widely applied in many educational settings. Thus, it is significant to understand how its implementation is perceived by students. This mixed-method study aimed to find out the fourth-year students’ attitudes at a university in Indonesia on the flipped classroom they attended. It was also aimed at exploring their perception of the benefits and pitfalls they experienced when attending the flipped classroom. Employing a convergent mixed-method design, the quantitative data were obtained from 75 students (n=75) who were asked to complete a questionnaire. For the qualitative data, 13 students, divided into two groups, were invited to participate in a focus group interview to explore their experiences in attending the flipped classroom. The findings indicated that the students had positive attitudes towards the flipped classroom (M=2.87) and reported several benefits they perceived. Nonetheless, aspects regarding motivation (M=2.50) and the use of videos (M=2.49) and other technological supports indicated negative attitudes and were considered as pitfalls in the implementation of the model. Implications and recommendations were addressed for the better implementation of a flipped classroom.
