          Abstract

          Abstract: Introduction: Flipped Classroom (FC) is an Active Learning Methodology characterized by the sending of teaching materials to students in advance, so that the classroom moment is entirely dedicated to non-expository activities. The FC was implemented in 2019 for the teaching of Clinical Examination (CE) aimed at undergraduate medical students at a Higher Education Institution in the Northeast region of Brazil. Objective: To analyze the implementation of FC for CE learning compared to the mini-exposure methodology followed by practice. Method: Analysis of educational intervention with historical control over the implementation of the FC methodology carried out in three phases. In the first, the two tutors involved in the implementation or who acted as teachers were evaluated through a semi-structured interview about the FC implementation process and its initial operation. The second consisted in the assessment of 44 medical students, through a Likert questionnaire, on learning with the new methodology. The third consisted in evaluating the grades obtained by 66 students who experienced learning with FC in relation to 142 students who experienced the previous methodology. Result: The evaluated tutors knew little about the methodology before it was implemented and believe that its implementation promoted gains, such as students’ greater dedication to individual study. The initial difficulty arose from the creation of an extensive database of questions for the pre-test, which was carried out at the beginning of the in-person moments. The evaluated students reported being well adapted and agree with the benefits of FC, including: feeling stimulated to study, developing the practice more easily and the presence of pre-tests that help to improve individual study. The results of the comparison of grades showed a significant increase in performance when comparing students who experienced the FC (9,11 - SD 0,45) with those who experienced the previous methodology (8,49 - SD 0,91). Conclusion: The methodology was satisfactorily implemented, promoted gains in learning and optimized the in-person time to be entirely dedicated to practical learning.

          Resumo: Introdução: A sala de aula invertida (SAI) é uma metodologia ativa de aprendizagem caracterizada pelo envio antecipado de materiais didáticos aos estudantes, de modo que o momento sala de aula seja inteiramente dedicado a atividades não expositivas. A SAI foi implementada em 2019 para aprendizagem do exame clínico (EC) de alunos da graduação de Medicina em uma instituição de ensino superior da Região Nordeste do Brasil. Objetivo: Este estudo teve como objetivo analisar a implantação da SAI na aprendizagem do EC comparando com a metodologia de miniexposição seguida de prática. Método: Trata-se de análise de intervenção educacional com controle histórico sobre a implantação da metodologia da SAI realizada em três fases. Na primeira, os dois tutores envolvidos na implantação ou que atuaram como docentes foram avaliados por meio de entrevista semiestruturada sobre o processo de implantação da SAI e seu funcionamento inicial. A segunda fase foi a avaliação de 44 estudantes de Medicina, por meio de questionário Likert, sobre a aprendizagem com a nova metodologia. A terceira consistiu na avaliação das notas obtidas por 66 estudantes que vivenciaram o aprendizado com SAI em relação aos 142 discentes que vivenciaram a metodologia anterior. Resultado: Os tutores avaliados conheciam pouco sobre a metodologia antes da implantação e acreditam que sua implantação promoveu ganhos, como uma maior dedicação dos estudantes ao estudo individual. A dificuldade inicial decorreu da elaboração de um extenso banco de questões para o pré-teste que era realizado no início dos momentos presenciais. Os estudantes avaliados relataram que estavam bem adaptados e que concordavam com os benefícios da SAI, como: sentir-se estimulado a estudar, desenvolver a prática com mais facilidade e a presença dos pré-testes que ajudam a aprimorar o estudo individual. Os resultados da comparação das notas mostraram um aumento significativo no desempenho ao compararem os estudantes que vivenciaram a SAI (9,11 - DP 0,45) com os que vivenciaram a metodologia anterior (8,49 - DP 0,91). Conclusão: A metodologia foi implantada de maneira satisfatória, promoveu ganhos na aprendizagem e otimizou o momento presencial para ser totalmente dedicado à aprendizagem prática.

          Active learning increases student performance in science, engineering, and mathematics.

          To test the hypothesis that lecturing maximizes learning and course performance, we metaanalyzed 225 studies that reported data on examination scores or failure rates when comparing student performance in undergraduate science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) courses under traditional lecturing versus active learning. The effect sizes indicate that on average, student performance on examinations and concept inventories increased by 0.47 SDs under active learning (n = 158 studies), and that the odds ratio for failing was 1.95 under traditional lecturing (n = 67 studies). These results indicate that average examination scores improved by about 6% in active learning sections, and that students in classes with traditional lecturing were 1.5 times more likely to fail than were students in classes with active learning. Heterogeneity analyses indicated that both results hold across the STEM disciplines, that active learning increases scores on concept inventories more than on course examinations, and that active learning appears effective across all class sizes--although the greatest effects are in small (n ≤ 50) classes. Trim and fill analyses and fail-safe n calculations suggest that the results are not due to publication bias. The results also appear robust to variation in the methodological rigor of the included studies, based on the quality of controls over student quality and instructor identity. This is the largest and most comprehensive metaanalysis of undergraduate STEM education published to date. The results raise questions about the continued use of traditional lecturing as a control in research studies, and support active learning as the preferred, empirically validated teaching practice in regular classrooms.

            Flipped classroom improves student learning in health professions education: a meta-analysis

            Background The use of flipped classroom approach has become increasingly popular in health professions education. However, no meta-analysis has been published that specifically examines the effect of flipped classroom versus traditional classroom on student learning. This study examined the findings of comparative articles through a meta-analysis in order to summarize the overall effects of teaching with the flipped classroom approach. We focused specifically on a set of flipped classroom studies in which pre-recorded videos were provided before face-to-face class meetings. These comparative articles focused on health care professionals including medical students, residents, doctors, nurses, or learners in other health care professions and disciplines (e.g., dental, pharmacy, environmental or occupational health). Method Using predefined study eligibility criteria, seven electronic databases were searched in mid-April 2017 for relevant articles. Methodological quality was graded using the Medical Education Research Study Quality Instrument (MERSQI). Effect sizes, heterogeneity estimates, analysis of possible moderators, and publication bias were computed using the Comprehensive Meta-Analysis software. Results A meta-analysis of 28 eligible comparative studies (between-subject design) showed an overall significant effect in favor of flipped classrooms over traditional classrooms for health professions education (standardized mean difference, SMD = 0.33, 95% confidence interval, CI = 0.21–0.46, p < 0.001), with no evidence of publication bias. In addition, the flipped classroom approach was more effective when instructors used quizzes at the start of each in-class session. More respondents reported they preferred flipped to traditional classrooms. Conclusions Current evidence suggests that the flipped classroom approach in health professions education yields a significant improvement in student learning compared with traditional teaching methods.

              A systematic review of the effectiveness of flipped classrooms in medical education.

              There are inconsistent claims made about the effectiveness of the flipped classroom (FC) in medical education; however, the quality of the empirical evidence used to back up these claims is not evident. The aims of this review are to examine the scope and quality of studies on the FC teaching approach in medical education and to assess the effects of FCs on medical learning.
