Abstract:

The flipped classroom model is increasingly popular in business education and other academic disciplines, promoting active learning through web-based lectures, pre-recorded lectures, and interactive instructional approaches. This reversal of the conventional classroom allows students to study at their own pace, take ownership of their academic development, and participate in active learning exercises like problem-based learning and group work. The study investigates undergraduate students' perceptions and experiences of learning in a flipped classroom setting. In the present study, four different sections were selected as experiment groups, to analyse the outcome of flipped classroom methodologies. The study examines student perspectives on educational interventions and courses, particularly online components. It found that students were more satisfied with online lectures and quizzes, as they could access them at their own pace. The study also found that students' overall understanding of course material was above average, and their preparation for class problems and projects was also above average. The study also highlighted the importance of the teacher's role in classroom teaching, highlighting the blended learning experience. Overall, both online and in-class experiences were beneficia
