An Adaptive Teaching Model For Flipped Classroom

Abstract

Individual differences are important for the learning environments so that it can be said that learning environments that are designed by using adaptation techniques are effective in improving the performance level of students. In this study a flipped classroom model was developed for elementary school students by using adaptivetechniques in English lectures. In this way advantageous and strong aspects of adaptive and flipped learning complete each other. In the research, two different flipped learning environments were developed. The flipped learning environment was designed without adaptations and with adaptations. The students worked for a period of ten weeks in the designed environments. The aim of the study is to show the benefits of adaptive technologies for flipped learning environments. In total 60 students from Libya were selected randomly then placed in adaptive flipped learning and Flipped learning environments. T-test was used in the substance analysis performed for knowledge test. Based on the findings obtained from the success rates of the students displayed on tests, administered as a pre and post test, it was demonstrated that adaptability of the flipped learning environment and levels of the adaptability have a positive effect on the academic achievement rates of the English lecture students.
