Conclusion Drawing and Verification
The quest for innovative teaching strategies to better
prepare nursing graduates continues with some educators
implementing flipped classroom models. Nurse
educators are increasingly conducting research studies
to investigate the use and effectiveness of flipped
classroom models on student performance and course
satisfaction. Yet, evidence explicating how this pedagogy
prepares students to transition into their new roles after
graduation is limited. Few studies were found assessing
the integration of the flipped classroom in nursing
courses. Effective flipped classroom models could
propagate collaborative learning, teamwork, active participation
in the learning process, and improve critical thinking
and decision-making skills for optimal patient outcomes. To
determine the impact of flipped classroom models on
student outcomes, it is critical to ensure that research studies
are conducted using rigorous scientific methods.
