Abstract

The COVID-19 epidemic has become a game-changer in the field of teaching. In most schools, emphasis is on introducing
new online teaching methods because of which we are seeing a lot of positive things happening in the education sector,
and there might be very few things more exciting than the flipped classroom. Free from the restrictions of the classroom
lecture, the flipped classroom encourages students to follow individual learning speed and gives them an extended
opportunity to think and interact objectively. Active learning via the flipped classroom and access to digital course material
through the Internet brings productive education that benefits both students and teachers. A study was conducted by the
undersigned to assess the effect of flipped classroom learning (F.C.L.)strategy on the self-efficacy of school students at the
elementary level. Flipped classroom approach was compared to the traditional lecture method through quasi-experimental
research. Fifty students ranging from gradeeightwere assigned to the control and experimental groups. The study revealed
an overall increase in students' self-efficacyalong with a promising increase in theSelf-Confidence and Positive Attitude of
the students. It shows that in the future also we will have to offer blended flipped methodologies that seemingly integrate
face-to-face and online teaching for learning to be more flexible and logical.
