Using the WOS (Web of Science) database, this study identified the SSCI (Social Sciences Citation Index) literature on the application of the technology-based learning model for flipped classrooms in science education from 2012 to 2019. We discuss and analyze authors’ nationalities, application fields, study methods, participants, learning strategies and research issues. According to the results of the review, studies on flipped classrooms have grown dramatically since 2015; more than half of the related studies came from the United States, and were mostly in the fields of chemistry, physics, natural science, ecology, and biology. Study methods were quantitative, and participants were mostly students in higher education. In the before-class stage of the flipped classrooms, teaching videos were used as the main material, and Internet-based learning platforms were used for watching and discussing online. Teaching strategies during the class focused on problem-based learning activities, with several studies applying teaching technology. In the after-class stage, most studies viewed the learning effectiveness via examinations. Most studies conducted discussions on issues such as learning effectiveness, learners’ opinions/experiences, attitude and motives, level of satisfaction/interest, higher order skills, and collaboration or communication. According to the results of the literature analysis, this study identified a trend in the application of flipped classrooms in science education. It also provides possible future discussions for reference. |
