Abstract

The flipped classroom phenomenon has generated a lot of enthusiasm in teaching circles, but not all teachers have embraced this new paradigm. This paper discusses some of the challenges for Hong Kong secondary school teachers to adopt the flipped classroom approaches. Based on a study conducted parallel to a professional development workshop for teachers, a number of concerns regarding the use of flipped classrooms are identified and discussed. Dividing these concerns into first- and second-order barriers, themes in teachers' comments and feedback are identified, and potential approaches to addressing the concerns proposed.
