What is CK-12 Flexbooks

Due to the global pandemic, teachers have had to find and implement effective instructional strategies through distance learning. Current research surrounding “flipped learning” indicates this may be a viable option during distance learning. This study takes place in a 9th grade conceptual physics course taught entirely online. It focuses upon the cyclical nature of action research using four curricular units, concluding that the process of continual reflection, modifications, and improvements made as a result of data analysis contributes to student engagement and academic achievement. Finally, it brings to light the importance in guiding students to understand that teachers are always learning, modifying, and adapting, and that learning is a lifelong process. This transparency is crucial when developing rapport with students, especially during a global pandemic that we are all working through together.
