El proceso de enseñanza y aprendizaje está muy determinado por la motivación y el ambiente de aprendizaje. La motivación y el ambiente de aprendizaje, dentro de la educación, dependen mucho de las metodologías educativas que se implementan en los centros educativos. El objetivo de este trabajo es comparar la motivación y el estado de Flow entre la estrategia metodológica Flipped Classroom y una metodología tradicional. Para ello se llevó a cabo un estudio de diseño cuasiexperimental, con selección de la muestra no probabilística e intencional. 103 alumnos universitarios participaron en el estudio, divididos en un grupo experimental (Flipped Classroom) y un grupo control (metodología tradicional). La motivación y el estado de Flow se evaluaron antes de comenzar la impartición de lecciones relacionadas con la asignatura: “Didáctica de la Educación Física” y al finalizar la misma (cuatro meses). Se utilizaron los cuestionarios de metas de logro 2x2 (Guan et al., 2006) y DREEM (Herrera et al., 2015). Para determinar si existían diferencias iniciales y finales entre los grupos se realizó la prueba T-Student de muestras independientes. Para observar las diferencias intragrupo (pre vs pos-test) se utilizó una prueba T-Student para muestras relacionadas. Los resultados muestran que existen diferencias significativas entre el grupo de control y el grupo experimental en las variables aproximación/maestría (p < .001), enseñanza (p = .003) y aprendizaje (p = .05). Con la metodología Flipped Classroom el alumnado presenta niveles en la motivación y en el estado de Flow superiores al alumnado que imparte una metodología tradicional.  Summary. The teaching and learning process is highly determined by motivation and the learning environment. The motivation and the learning environment, within education, both of them depend a lot on the educational methodologies that are implemented in educational centers. The objective of this work is to compare the motivation and the state of Flow between the Flipped Classroom methodological strategy and a traditional methodology. For this reason, a quasi-experimental design study was carried out, with a selection of the non-probabilistic and intentional sample. 103 university students participated in the study, divided into an experimental group (Flipped Classroom) and a control group (traditional methodology). The motivation and the state of Flow were evaluated before the beginning of the lessons related to the subject: "Physical Education Didactics" and at the end of it (four months later). The 2x2 achievement goal questionnaires (Guan et al., 2006) and DREEM (Herrera et al., 2015) were used. To determine if there are initial and final differences between the groups, the T-Student test was performed on independent samples. To observe intra-group differences (pre vs. post-test), a T-Student test was detected for related samples. The results found that there are differences between the control group and the experimental group in the variables approach/mastery (p < .001), teaching (p = .003) and learning (p = .05). With the Flipped Classroom methodology, students have higher levels of motivation and Flow status than students who teach a traditional methodology.

The development of lower-basic school was replicated prior to the attainment of independent in Nigeria. This is a move to look inward on how the country can lay a very good foundation for Nigeria education. The emergency of covid-19 pandemic that compulsorily short down schools across the globe in no doubt affects Nigerian pupils reading culture. The trust of this paper therefore, is to experiment how collaborative as an instructional technique can close the reading-culture vacuum created by the covid-19 pandemic with a view to suggesting ways of improving the quality of teaching and learning reading comprehension. A quasi-experimental design with pre and post-test, non-randomized, and non-equivalent was adopted for data collection. The population for this study consisted of all upper-basic school pupils in Ilorin metropolis. Two schools were purposively sampled. The sample was categorized into one experimental group and one control group of fifty respondents each. The data collected were analysed using the percentage, mean, standard deviation and analysis of Co-variance (ANCOVA) to test the two formulated hypotheses at 0.05 level of significance. Findings revealed that: the general level of pupils’ achievement in reading comprehension was low before the treatments (42.79) but high after the treatments (77.76) irrespective of gender. The paper recommends that teachers of the English language should wake up and move in line with the modern trends through the use of collaborative instructional techniques in order to improve the teaching and learning of reading comprehension. Teachers and other stakeholders should try and leave up expectations by encouraging collaborative techniques for teaching reading. Curriculum planners and developers should not be left out in this regard.
