Designing flipped classroom using Kemp's instructional model to enhance deep learning and self-directed collaborative learning of basic science concepts.

Background: The flipped classroom pedagogy allows students to introduce a topic and gather their own meanings outside of the classroom, then explore the topic and create their meanings or exclude their misconceptions during class. Our aim was to enhance the ability of self-directed learning (SDL) among medical undergraduates. Pedagogical benefits of the model are highlighted along with potential challenges to its use.
