| Conventional teaching method | Stage of learning | Flipped teaching method | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Week 1 | Students read the learning material | Pre-lass | The teacher provides students with the contextual and learning situations Students are tasked to identify the problem-solving |
The teacher explains the learning objective The teacher introduces the basic theory related to motion and force | In-class | Students clarify the problem solving through collaboration Students are tasked to determine the criteria and constraints for the solution to the problem based on previous solutions | |
| Students do their homework | Post-class | Students collect information based on the learning activities in class | |
| Week 2 | Students read the learning material | Pre-class | Students explore physics knowledge such as work of force, power, energy, types of energy and the law of conservation of energy Students watch instructional videos related to the engineering problem-solving method |
| The teacher presents the concept of work, power | In-class | The teacher engages students in the revision of previous knowledge by correcting errors and misconceptions and by adding new information Students work in groups to select the appropriate solution to the problem based on the criteria and constraints | |
| Students do their homework | Post-class | Students improve the selected solution | |
| Week 3 | Students read the learning material related to the application of the energy conservation law | Pre-class | Students are asked to build a prototype |
| The teacher presents the law of conservation of energy | In-class | Students discuss and validate the prototype for the solution to the problem by planning and assigning tasks to each group member Students test and improve the proposed solution Students discuss and detail a list of the materials to implement the prototype for the proposed solution | |
| Students do their homework | Post-class | Students buy materials to develop the product | |
| Week 4 | Students read the learning materials | Pre-class | Students check the materials corresponding to the prototype established |
The teacher requires to students conduct a series of exercises related to force and motion, work of force, power and the law of conservation of energy The teacher checks for student understanding | In-class | Students set up materials to construct the electric elevator model Students test the operation of the elevator compared with the criteria and constraints Students present the product and the teacher evaluates the project | |
| Students perform these exercises at home | Post-class | Students write a report about the electric elevator project | |
