The Flipped Classroom Approach via the M-Learning Model: Impact on Student Learning and Motivation
Abstract
Over the past decade, there has been a growing emphasis on integrating modern technology into educational systems, particularly in the form of new information and communication technologies (NICT), including mobile technologies. Mobile learning (M-Learning) is an advanced form of e-learning that allows learners to access educational materials and knowledge sources through intelligent digital electronic devices in a flexible mobile environment. This study explores the impact of applying the flipped classroom pedagogical approach via the M-Learning model on learners' motivation. To investigate this, an experiment was conducted on a group of 86 learners in the Operating System and Local Area Network course, where M-Learning was adopted as the teaching model. The experimental group was compared with a control group, and the obtained results showed that the experimental group had a significant improvement in learning outcomes and remarkable motivation according to the ARCS model. The findings indicate that the experimental group demonstrated improved learning and remarkable motivation according to the ARCS model. This suggests that incorporating M-Learning into the flipped classroom approach can be an effective way to enhance learners' motivation and engagement in the learning process.
Keywords: flipped classroom, m-learning, ARCS model, motivation.
