Teaching web development courses using flipped classroom and Discord: a two-year experience in the Peruvian context during the COVID-19 pandemic

ABSTRACT

The Flipped Classroom methodology encourages students to interact with content in multiple ways and professors, who provide active learning strategies to create a super engaging group space that can extend beyond the classroom walls. The purpose of the study was to generate learning scenarios that ensure the good performance of students to achieve the skills in two programming courses at a private university in Peru, making its implementation sustainable over the years. The educational proposal presented in this research made use of the flipped classroom methodology and the Discord platform as an agile means of communication. The results are very encouraging because it allowed students to participate in their own learning in an active and self-directed way so that they self-regulate their own learning path individually and in groups;based on flipped classroom and successfully deployed on the Discord platform. © 2023 IEEE.
