EFFECTIVENESS OF FLIPPED CLASSROOM STRATEGY ON ACHIEVEMENT IN ORGANIC CHEMISTRY AMONG STANDARD IX STUDENTS

Abstract

OBJECTIVE To find out whether there exists significant difference in the effectiveness of constructivist strategy and flipped classroom strategy on achievement in organic chemistry among standard IX students. METHODOLOGY Method of Study : Experimental Method (comparison group post-test only design) Sample : 77 students of IX standard of G.H.S.S.Vazhakkad, Malappuram District. Experimental and control group comprised of 38 and 39 students respectively. Tools :  Self-developed e-content on organic chemistry for standard IX.  Lesson transcripts on the topics in organic chemistry based on flipped classroom strategy  Lesson transcripts on the topics in organic chemistry based on constructivist classroom strategy  Achievement test in organic chemistry  Test on basics of organic chemistry Statistical Techniques :  Test of significance difference between independent means (t-test)  Cohen’s d test RESULT Findings of the study revealed the flipped classroom strategy is more effective on achievement in organic chemistry than the existing constructivist strategy. KEY TERMS : Flipped Classroom Strategy, Achievement in Organic Chemistry.
