Abstract
The transition from a traditional lecture style method of teaching to the flipped classroom in sophomore-level Organic Chemistry I and II courses at an Historically Black University (HBCU) is described. The process of implementation was explained and the students’ performance was analyzed. The flipped teaching method made a much bigger positive impact to Organic I than Organic II Chemistry course. A higher percentage of A, B or better, and C or better were observed for Organic I Chemistry course. The DFW rate was also significantly lower for the Organic I Chemistry flipped classroom. However, Organic II results were very similar between the students from both teaching methods.

The purpose of the study is to examine the effects of “flipping the classroom” on student performance, evaluation, and attendance in managerial accounting principles.
Abstract
Purpose
The purpose of the study is to examine the effects of “flipping the classroom” on student performance, evaluation, and attendance in managerial accounting principles.
Design/methodology/approach
The study uses a crossed within-participants research design (each student experiencing both traditional instruction and simplified flipped instruction) allowing for control of individual differences between students; repeated-measures regression analysis for overall effects; quantile regression for performance-segregated effects.
Findings
Flipping the classroom resulted in significant performance improvement, particularly for lower performing students. Course evaluations indicate a few instructor-related ratings were lower for the flipped approach. Attendance was lower under the flipped approach for initial class meetings where the instructional manipulation occurred.
Research limitations/implications
The study design included a weak form of flipping. A stronger form of flipping with greater incentives for class preparation as well as lecture videos could have stronger results.
Practical implications
Flipping the classroom could be effective for application-oriented accounting courses, particularly for lower performing students.
Originality/value
This is one of very few studies on flipping providing evidence of effectiveness using a crossed within-participants research design.

Abstract
Changes in the educational environment regarding the teaching–learning process are required as a result of social, economic, and cultural transitions. In light of this, this chapter will discuss and examine the flipped classroom method’s qualities as well as potential applications for individualized higher education. A bibliometric review of the Scopus database would be done in order to fulfil the suggested goal, and a report on a flipped classroom’s implementation at a Brazilian university was also provided. It was discovered that the traits are pre-class activities, actions done in preparation for class, and postclass activities. This instructional approach can be utilized to motivate pupils in individualized instruction.
