A Flipped Classroom Experience Teaching Software Engineering

Abstract

New teaching approaches like the flipped classroom are an interesting alternative to educate new generations but they represent new challenges for teachers. This paper describes our experience re-designing our classes and study materials in order to adopt a flipped classroom approach combined with some other non-traditional teaching techniques. This experience is focused on the Software Engineering course at Universidad Nacional de Tres de Febrero. In this paper we share details of our strategy, the positive results we obtained and the concerns we still need to address.
