Innovative education at postgraduate level: Flipped classroom

The educative innovation presented was developed at the Official University Master of Psychopedagogy at the University of Seville, Spain. An approximation to the Flipped Classroom methodology was carried out. Postgrad students are not normally exposed to this methodology, and therefore, they were not familiarised with it. To implement it, firstly, the class was divided into groups and, from a selection of the curricular contents of the subject; each group was assigned a particular topic. Each group had to prepare a presentation in which three tasks were to be fulfilled: the creation of an explanatory video to be projected during a presentation session with the aim of illustrating the theoretical contents, a reinforcement activity to enhance meaningful learning and an assessment of the presentation made. At the end of the study, the subjects received a questionnaire to analyse their degree of satisfaction according to the methodology. Results showed that the methodology was perceived as satisfactory or very satisfactory by most of the participants.
