Abstract

Distance education can play an important complementary role in primary and secondary education in the framework of new methodologies and models proposed in the literature, such as the flipped classroom. The flipped classroom shifts the "boring" and passive, for the student, theoretical part of teaching from school to home, leaving more time for the teacher at school to apply learner-centered, experiential learning techniques. On this basis, the aim of this paper was to examine the possibilities, the prerequisites and the results of implementing a flipped classroom model as a form of blended learning in primary school. In particular, in this study we present the design, the implementation and the results of an action research for the case of Mathematics in K5 elementary school with the use of advanced technology like Edmodo, Youtube editor and Edpuzzle. The research data showed that the application of the flipped
classroom method in primary education had positive effects on the students and confirmed the significant benefits mentioned in international and Greek literature.
