Abstract:

Flipped learning is a pedagogical approach in which conventional learning is inverted. Students are persuaded by a motivator and attractive video about a determinate subject before accessing to the media contents provided by APPES. Later, the classroom time is used to deepen understanding through discussion the problem proposed. APPES is an app for mobile devices focused on learning statistics and probability. Each subject in APPES is divided into five parts: the motivator open problem video without a solution, the theoretical part (self-readable), the tutorial video, guiding exercises and self-assessed proposed problems. The students are introduced in the subject through an attractive video whose content is an open problem which will be able to solve. The concepts are introduced by the theory (self-readable), a tutorial video (subtitled) shows similar solved problems, different guiding exercises helps students to understand the topic, and finally, several self-evaluated exercises can be performed by the students. The classroom time is dedicated to analyze and solve the original problem arguing the results.
