Implementation and Evaluation of Flipped Algorithmic Class

Abstract

Recent years have brought the need for new pedagogical approaches that appeal to the involvement and participation of learners in the learning process. One of these approaches is the flipped classroom, which gives to learners the possibility to prepare for the next class, through pre-recorded video lectures and close-ended problems. Many studies merely replace in-class instructions by videos and use class time for group discussions. Nevertheless, what instructional design framework should we use in planning the overall flipped classroom approach? This article answers this question through exploratory studies conducted at Algeria University. In this work, the authors have used a flipped classroom concept for an algorithmic course like java programming, based on learner's learning style and learner's skill level.
