Flipped Learning in Physiotherapy Education

This study will evaluate the effectiveness of flipped learning in an undergraduate physiotherapy and rehabilitation course on urogenital and maternal health. In flipped learning, students review digital learning materials before class, while class time is used for case discussions, problem-solving activities, group work, and clinical reasoning exercises. Third-year physiotherapy and rehabilitation students enrolled in the Urogenital and Maternal Health in Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation course will be invited to participate. The study will compare students' clinical decision-making and academic performance after conventional teaching and after flipped learning activities. Student satisfaction with the flipped learning method will also be assessed. In addition, individual interviews will be conducted with a subgroup of volunteer students to explore their learning experiences. Participation in the research will be voluntary and will not affect course grades. The study involves educational activities, questionnaires, written assessments, and optional audio-recorded interviews; no medical intervention or biological sample collection will be performed. The findings may help improve student-centered teaching approaches in physiotherapy and rehabilitation education.
