Systematic Review of a Flipped Learning Model for the Courses of Descriptive Geometry, Engineering and Computer Graphics

摘要

The relevance of this study is determined by absence of fundamental research in the use of flipped learning model (FLM) in teaching students of engineering universities Descriptive Geometry, Engineering and Computer Graphics (DGECG); by the absence of scientifically-based, tried and tested programs and teaching materials for DGECG FLM; as well as by the need of development of new, modern tools to support classroom work and forms of students' individual work. The purpose of this study was to describe the current state of theory and practice in the field of DGECG educational process, which uses flipped concept of learning as a major pedagogical strategy. The main task was the following-to discuss the effectiveness of FLM, its advantages and disadvantages compared to traditional teaching method. The FLM approach has gained increasing popularity not only in schools but also in engineering universities. FLM creates opportunities for solutions of complex pedagogic problems in engineering education but creates some difficulties in preparing for the implementation of the model. Theoretical and practical contribution of the article materials-the synthesis of qualitative and quantitative researches of engineering courses which use a FLM. The study showed that the issues of DGECG FLM have not been investigated in the scientific and methodological literature. To create reasonable theoretical bases of pedagogy in the field of DGECG FLM as well as methods of evaluation it is necessary to conduct further scientific researches examining various aspects of the practical implementation of long-term, tried and tested programs and instructional materials for teaching students.
