ABSTRACT
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of the flipped classroom on optimizing
students’ motivation and understanding of medical physics concepts. This approach transfers
teacher-fronted lessons out of class to be prepared by students at home and utilizes their class
time for discussion and practice. The sample included 123 female students: 58 in a flipped
classroom and 65 in a conventional classroom. Three instruments were developed: teachers’
guide, an understanding test, and students’ motivation questionnaire. Data were analyzed using
the mean, standard deviation, ANCOVA - test, and size effect. The results showed that there were
statistically significant differences among students’ increased motivation and understanding of
medical physics concepts in favor of the flipped classroom learning. Therefore, instructors and
curriculum developers should restructure the contents of their courses according to flipped
classroom principles to foster students’ motivation and understanding of medical physics
concepts.
