Abstract

This study consists of a scoping review of the existing literature on the implementation of the Flipped Learning (FL) model in the university environment. Eighteen studies published between 2014 and 2020 were selected, of which 77.8% were scientific articles. The range of the mean ages of the participants in the FL courses was from 21 to 30 years. The objectives of this review were to analyze the activities carried out before, during and after the class, the advantages and disadvantages of the application of the model, and the technological tools used in the teaching practice. The study found that watching videos (83.33%) and completing tests and lessons (50%) were the main activities before class, while group work was frequent during (72.22%) and after class (16.67%). The most reported advantages of the FL model included increased student participation, motivation, and satisfaction (42.11%). The most commonly used technological tool was the learning management system (e.g. Moodle, 20%). The results of this review aim to provide recommendations for teachers interested in implementing the FL model in their classes and for researchers focusing on the implementation of the model in university education.

Impact and social visibility

From the perspective of influence or social adoption, and based on metrics associated with mentions and interactions provided by agencies specializing in calculating the so-called "Alternative or Social Metrics," we can highlight as of 2025-07-17:

  • The use, from an academic perspective evidenced by the Altmetric agency indicator referring to aggregations made by the personal bibliographic manager Mendeley, gives us a total of: 14.
  • The use of this contribution in bookmarks, code forks, additions to favorite lists for recurrent reading, as well as general views, indicates that someone is using the publication as a basis for their current work. This may be a notable indicator of future more formal and academic citations. This claim is supported by the result of the "Capture" indicator, which yields a total of: 34 (PlumX).

With a more dissemination-oriented intent and targeting more general audiences, we can observe other more global scores such as:

  • The Total Score from Altmetric: 3.55.
  • The number of mentions on the social network X (formerly Twitter): 5 (Altmetric).

It is essential to present evidence supporting full alignment with institutional principles and guidelines on Open Science and the Conservation and Dissemination of Intellectual Heritage. A clear example of this is:

  • The work has been submitted to a journal whose editorial policy allows open Open Access publication.
  • Additionally, the work has been submitted to a journal classified as Diamond in relation to this type of editorial policy.
