inverse learning

This research investigated the effect of using the reverse-learning approach on academic goal-oriented and lifelong learning of teacher students of Farhangian University. This is an applied research using a quasi-experimental research method. The research design was pre-test and post-test with the experimental and control groups. The population of this research included all teacher students of Farhangian University who were studying in the academic years 2018 and 2019. A cluster randomized two-stage random sampling method was used to collect the sample. At first, a pre-test of educational goal-orientation and lifelong learning was administered in both groups and after the implementation of the course at the end of the first semester, both groups were subjected to the post-test. To analyze the data, descriptive statistics including mean and standard deviation and inferential statistics, multivariate analysis of covariance analysis were used. Findings of the study showed the effectiveness of reverse education compared with the traditional method on academic goals and lifelong learning.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine the impact of flipped learning method on self-directed learning in entrepreneurship lesson. Methodology: This quasi-experimental study was a pretest-posttest one with the control group. The statistical population of this research included all master students in the in the Islamic Azad University of Yadegar Imam (RA), in the academic year 2015-2018. 150 individuals were randomly selected among the master students in the accounting department of the Islamic Azad University of Imam Khomeini, for sampling. Then, before implementing the entrepreneurship lesson with the flipped learning method, and after training, Williamson's Self-directed Learning Questionnaire (2007), which consists of five components and 60 items (components' separation including the awareness, learning strategies, learning activities, evaluation, and interpersonal skills) have been used and implemented on all of them. Findings: In general, the Finding of the research showed that there was a significant difference between the mean scores of the experiment group and the control group regarding the effect of flipped learning method on self-directed learning of students in entrepreneurship lessons in the post-test phase (P <0.01). Discussion: Totally we can say with the Inverse Learning Method we are able to improve Self-Directed Learning in Entrepreneurship Lessons.
