Abstract

Teachers in classrooms worldwide have started using a newer approach to teach students, known as the flipped classroom model. This model can be described as inverting the classroom such that events which traditionally take place inside the classroom now take place outside the classroom and vice versa. A mixed method study was conducted to examine the effectiveness of the flipped classroom model. This study hoped to accomplish two things: 1) provide an understanding of whether the flipped classroom model affected fourth grade students' learning of mathematics and 2) develop recommendations based on current best practices in mathematics education that teachers may use to guide their future teaching.
