Social Constructivism Learning through Project Based Learning with Scaffolding in Flipped Classroom

Abstract

In this study, social constructivism learning through project based learning with scaffolding in flipped classroom is described. Although its implementation is currently much talked about and gaining more popularity, in-class learning activities still be equally considered to ensure its successful implementation. In addition to in-class learning activities, this paper also discusses the implications of the theory and practices in the implementation of in-class flipped classroom method. This research aims to measure students' achievement, engagement and perception in Statistics, a subject in Mathematics. A total of 61 secondary school students were involved in this study, 30 being in the control group and the remaining undergoing a treatment. This study was conducted using both quantitative and qualitative approach. The results showed that students' achievement improved tremendously and the applied scaffolding not only helped students in their learning process but also in their social development. However, the findings also showed that it took the students some time to adapt to the flipped classroom method.
