Abstract

This study examined the impact of flipped classrooms approach to learners’ motivation as well as the acquisition of practical skills in the electrical installation and maintenance subject Specifically, this study used the descriptive correlational research design with questionnaire as the basic data gathering tool. Furthermore, descriptive statistics were utilized to treat the data while Pearson-r correlation was employed to answer the study's inferential questions and the effects among variables. The study revealed that learners can become more engaged, motivated, and capable of developing practical skills by employing a flipped classroom approach. In addition, the results further showed that learning process was improved with the use of this approach. Statistical tests proved the significant relationship between flipped classroom approach to motivation but not in the acquisition of practical skills. The results imply the potential benefit of flipped classroom in addressing student motivation in any subject.
