E-Learning and Flipped Instruction Integration in Business Education: A Proposed Pedagogical Model
King, Chula; Piotrowski, Chris
Journal of Instructional Pedagogies, v16 Jul 2015
While Blended pedagogical approaches are a ubiquitous feature in higher education, the Flipped class is a rather recent instructional format in undergraduate-level instruction. The Flipped paradigm blends together many of the benefits of E-Learning courses, with many of the benefits of face-to-face instruction. At the same time, the disadvantages of each mode of instruction are minimized. However, the modern college instructor has the challenge of incorporating a host of online educational resources into Flipped learning approaches. This study: a) reviews the relevant literature on the Flipped model of instruction with a focus on applications in business school coursework; b) outlines the available major E-learning resources and tools based on the experiences of the first author in designing and executing Flipped classes for a business school curriculum; and c) reports on experience based successes and failures with this pedagogical model of integrating E-Learning and Flipped instruction in face-to-face instruction. Future research should examine specific aspects of Flipped techniques that enhance or detract optimal student learning and those modalities that hamper the role of the instructor.
