Abstract:The paper analyzed the global growth and development of flipped classroom research productivity in terms of publication output as reflected in SCI/SSCI for the period 2000-2015. Publication types and languages, characteristics of articles outputs, countries, subject categories and journals, and the frequency of keywords were analyzed using bibliometric methods. There are 149 articles in 78 journals listed in 41 SCI/SSCI subject categories. A sharp growth trend of publication output was observed during 2011-201… Show more
“…Finally, the most relevant topics distinguished concur with specific studies showing the scientific potential and the large number of documents in recent years on flipped classroom (Yang, Sun, & Liu, 2017) and project-based learning (Azer, 2017;Reis, Barbalho, & Zanette, 2017).…”
Teachers have gradually been making more use of active methodologies at all educational levels, and some even carry out research in this area. The objective of this research was to develop a bibliometric study in order to gain an in-depth view of the scientific literature on active methodologies in education. An analysis of the classic descriptions of bibliometrics, co-authorship indexes and collaboration networks was carried out, using documents indexed by the Web of Science on active methodologies in education between 2009 and 2019. The final data corpus is composed of 513 documents. The results show that publications on this type of research are booming, demonstrating a growing interest in these kinds of studies in the short and medium term. English is the predominant language in these studies, as occurs in the general scientific literature. The results indicate a limited range of topics being studied currently and likely growth in coming years. Therefore, this category of research can be considered as a relevant field of study for the scientific community in the short and medium term.

“…There are many studies about the Flipped Classroom methodology. However, the field of CS needs more research about this teaching methodology in comparison to other academic scopes [42] but also because there are some contradictory results that need to be clarified [39].…”

More than twenty years have passed since the term Flipped Classroom was coined. Despite of the increasing interest in this teaching methodology, fields like Computer Science still need more research in order to judge the impact of this methodology in the learning process. This work presents a comparative study between traditional lectures and a partial application of the Flipped Classroom methodology in the subject Language Processors of a Computer Science degree. The study involved 158 students during two weeks and focused on practical contents of the subject. The results show that students in the Flipped Classroom group were more responsible of their learning process, consequently they got significant better learning outcomes either during or at the end of the learning process. Students' satisfaction was highly positive as well. This work increases the amount of experiments about Flipped Classroom within the field of Computer Science. In addition, this work serves as an example of how to begin the transition from traditional lectures to the Flipped Classroom methodology.
“…FC model continues to exist today as a popular approach that continues to be used in education. It Today, there are bibliometric analysis studies in different disciplines (Alkan, 2014;Arici et al, 2019;Karagöz & Şeref, 2019;Yang, Sun & Liu, 2017;Zan, 2013). As the use of Vosviewer software makes it easier to visually express data while conducting bibliometrics analysis, it is an important tool for researchers who will perform bibliometrics analysis.…”
One of the reflections of technology to education is the flipped classroom model. In The Flipped Classroom model, the lecture process on a subject is delivered at home, while the application process that is related to the subject is in the class. The purpose of this study is to examine the trends in recent years via bibliometric results of articles on the use of flipped classrooms in education. For this aim, we investigated a total of 2955 publications on the flipped classroom obtained from the Web of Science database. Then, a bibliometric analysis of the publications was carried out in this study of qualitative research method. The publications have been examined in terms of some bibliometric variables and are presented descriptively. We performed a content analysis using tables and the VOSviewer program. According to the results, the most commonly used keywords in the research are the “flipped classroom learning” and “active learning”, and the publication language is generally English. The most common types of documents are papers and articles. Valencia Polytechnic University is the most contributing institution in its field of study. The most active countries in terms of the number of studies are the USA and China.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
