GARCIA-GIL, Desireé  and  CREMADES-ANDREU, Roberto. Flipped Classrooms in Higher Education. A Study of Student Statements. RMIE [online]. 2019, vol.24, n.80, pp.101-123. ISSN 1405-6666.

This research addresses the use of a flipped classroom model in a college music course. The narrative method was used to complete a cross analysis of 33 statements made by students who participated in the course. The theoretical part of the course was presented through videos, while class time was reserved for practical aspects. The methodology was implemented during the 2016-2017 school year at a public university in Madrid, Spain, in a group studying Early Childhood Education. The conclusions indicate increases in students’ relationships with the professor of the class, their ability to analyze and research, as well as the consolidation of group unity.
