The Teaching Process Applying the Flipped Classroom Model in Teaching Science Subjects Oriented Towards Developing Self-Learning Capacity for Primary School Students

Abstract : The integration of the flipped classroom model into education has led to significant changes in both teaching and learning activities in various ways. Studies have shown that the most frequently reported advantage of the flipped classroom is the improvement of student learning performance, resulting in numerous positive educational outcomes. Recognizing the benefits that the flipped classroom model brings to education, this paper presents a teaching process that applies the flipped classroom model in Science education, aimed at developing self-learning abilities for elementary school students. This model alters the traditional teaching sequence by shifting the knowledge acquisition phase to self-study at home, while classroom sessions focus on practical activities and interaction. The research developed a specific 5-step process to effectively implement the flipped classroom model in the topic “Human and Health” within the Grade 4 Science curriculum. The results indicate that applying this model not only helps students acquire knowledge effectively but also fosters self-learning capacity, self-management skills, and a sense of responsibility in learning.
