Why is it important?
Flexibility is of paramount importance in teacher training. Integrating methodologies to best benefit from class time practice has proved right with the group of students in the study.
Perspectives
We hope to continue applying active methodologies as results indicate students improve their understanding of of contextual information in the first place. Future teachers analyse their own limited reality of 2 hours per week and realise that something must be done to better benefit from the lessons. Flipping content (outside of class) and applying it in significant activities in class reported positive outcomes as described in the study.
