Application Research of Smart Education in Flipped Classroom of College English Based on the smart education environment, this paper conducted an application research on the flipped classroom of College English teaching. After introducing the smart education and the flipped classroom, we showed the specific practice of the application research on college English flipped classroom. Then we explained and made analysis on the research problem and the relevant causes. In the last part of our research, we recommended some suggestions. Regardless of the implementation process or the effect, college teachers should first lay a good theoretical foundation, combine it with teaching practice, and find out the teaching mode of flipped classroom for the real situation of Chinese universities to further promote teaching reform.

Contextualising the LearnerCentric MOOCs Model for Effective Blending of FlippedClassroom Method in Engineering Physics Course This study focuses on contextualising the LearnerCentric MOOCs (LCM) model for an effective blending of flippedclassroom strategy alongside the inclass traditional lecturing in an undergraduate engineering physics course. The research design employed in this study is a single group, pretest, posttest analysis. The main research problem being addressed in this study is does the flipped contents when integrated with LCM based structured learning activities lead to an improved engagement of students, thereby increasing the conceptual understanding. First, the students were primed for one full semester to get adapted with the flipped classroom method as well as the LCM activity formats. Further, few key interventions were prompted such as giving incentives, grouping, counselling of low engaged and performers, support materials, NPTel based resources, etc across the first few modules, with an aim to improve the outofclass engagement. Our results showed that the engagement and learning effectiveness showed considerable improvement upon priming following the key interventions. Further, the students showed positive perception of learning, engagement and usefulness towards this blended technique. Few recommendations are provided for the other teachers who would like to adopt the contextualize improvisation of the LCM model for their flipped teachinglearning practices.
