This study determined the effectiveness of using a flipped classroom approach and the 5E instructional model in teaching the Physics topic, Rotational Motion. Using mixed methods, this study involved ten Grade 12 students under the Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) track. Data showed that the implementation of the four-week study was successful. The students developed a sense of responsibility, participated in the discussion, and followed instructions as a result of the highly positive and highly interactive learning environment. They overcame the challenges that they faced during the learning process such as: the need for guidance / assistance in order to learn, difficulty in coping with the lesson, lack of internet access, incomplete homework, and lack of confidence in taking part in discussion. Most importantly, the students performed very well across a number of formative assessments. The study showed that the students’ positive attitude towards learning increased as evidenced by homework completion. In a flipped classroom environment, the students invest in their own learning.

Times have changed and teachers have evolved. New technologies have opened up the classroom to the outside world. Teachers who were seen with textbooks and blackboard are now using varied technological tools to empower learners to publish works and engage learners with live audience in real contexts. In this digital era an ever-expanding array of powerful software has been made available. The flipped classroom is a shift from passive to active learning to focus on higher order thinking skills such as analysis, synthesis and evaluation. This model of teaching combines pedagogy and learning technologies. Significant learning happens through facilitating active learning through engaged learners. In this approach learning materials are provided through text, video, audio and multimedia. Students take responsibility of their learning. They work together applying course concepts with guidance from the instructor. This increased interaction helps to create a learning community that encourages them to build knowledge inside and outside the classroom.
