Flipped classroom (FC) has gained attention as an active learning approach. Designing effective out-of-class activities to help prepare students for in-class activities is fundamental for successful implementation of FC. This study investigated the effectiveness of Goal-Based Scenarios (GBS) for out-of-class learning in FC. Four out of twelve units in a medical humanities course for Year 2 medical students was redesigned into a FC format, where e-learning modules were designed using a GBS approach for out-of-class activities and classroom debates were implemented for in-class activities. The other eight units were delivered in a conventional classroom debate format, which included reading text materials as pre-class assignments. A formative evaluation study was conducted using questionnaires and interview methods and students' academic achievements were evaluated by comparing their pre- and post-test scores between FC and conventional units. Students had positive perceptions of the e-learning modules in GBS approach and preferred the structure of learning in the FC format. Students' pre-test scores were slightly higher in the FC units, yet their post-test scores were comparable with conventional units. This study illustrates students' perceptions that the learning was bettered structured in FC and that the out-of-class learning using the GBS approach helped them better prepared for in-class activities.

최근 학계와 교육현장의 관심과 주목을 받고 있는 거꾸로 교실은 학업성취도, 학습태도, 협력학습, 자기 주도 학습 능력 등에 긍정적 효과를 가지고 있다는 많은 교육적 장점에도 불구하고 상당수의 실행상의 문제점과 어려움이 존재한다. 이에 본 연구는 거꾸로 교실에 대한 교사 및 예비교사의 인식 조사를 통해 거꾸로 교실의 교육적 적용 가능성을 탐색하는데 그 궁극적인 목적이 있다. 이를 위해 선행연구 및 사례 등을 기반으로 거꾸로 교실의 교수 학습모형 및 가이드라인에 대한 분석을 실시한 다음, 실제 현장 적용 시 충족되어야 할 교육적 선행 조건을 탐색하여 이를 바탕으로 예비교사 156명과 현직교사 42명을 대상으로 교육적 적용 방향 및 인식에 대해 조사를 실시하였다. 조사결과, 전체 80% 이상의 참여 교사들이 거꾸로 교실을 활용할 의사를 보여주었고 사전학습활동 자료 및 가이드라인이 제공되기를 희망하였다. 교사들은 거꾸로 교실을 적용하기에 최적의 학습대상은 중학생과 대학생으로 여겼으며, 최적의 과목은 사회, 과학, 국어, 영어 순으로 나타났으며, 사전학습활동 자료 형태로 동영상을 손꼽았다.

This endeavor is an attempt to explore the effect of flipped classroom strategy (FCS) on (a) academic achievement in the computer and information technology course and (b) students' attitudes towards this strategy. The sample of the study consisted of 64 students, divided into two groups: experimental and control groups. Two instruments were used to collect the data: a test and a questionnaire. The test was used to measure the students' achievement and the questionnaire to measure their attitudes towards the FCS. The results show statistically significant differences at the level of 0.05 in support of the experimental group at all Bloom's levels. Similarly, students' positive attitude towards the FCS was evident. Therefore, expanding this strategy in different courses is highly recommended because it positively impacts students' achievements. Organizing workshops and designing courses that encourage teachers to implement the strategy in the classroom and develop their technical skills are also recommended.
