Abstract

It has been a decade since flipped classroom as a structural innovation in teaching and learning is widely applied and researched in higher education across the world. This study aims to explore, based on academic literature, three core dimensions to understanding flipped classroom: pedagogies as the inner core, interpersonal relationships as the bond and complexities involved in its evaluation.
