Article Abstract

Due to the advent of coronavirus disease in most nations throughout the world, the manner of education altered from traditional face-to-face to remote or online teaching. As a result, the new normal necessitates the adoption of an online teaching and learning platform for all levels of education. The study tested the effectiveness of a flipped classroom instructional technique on children's development of sound knowledge of Basic Science concepts. Thirty-one primary three children took part in the treatment session, which was conducted using a simple repeated measures design. The study collected data using the Basic Science Achievement Test (BSAT), which was adequately validated and trial-tested. The children were given two distinct pretests before the treatment and two different posttests afterward. The data were analyzed using a mixed-design repeated-measures analysis of variance. The findings demonstrated that using a flipped classroom instructional technique boosted children's development of a good understanding of Basic Science significantly ( = 000) with an effect size of 0.953. The implementation of a flipped classroom instructional technique in teaching and learning Basic Science was advocated as a result of these results.
