Abstract

India being the third largest higher education system in the world, produces graduates merely 7% of its population where only 46.2% are employable. India’s underperformance in higher education is due to lack of equity, poor infrastructure, political interference, quality and quantity of faculty, research and innovation, accreditation and quality of teaching-learning components. Issues in teaching learning were not tackled in a proper way. Till date almost whole higher education system in India is practicing lecture method as a major pedagogical tool. After introducing and implementing NEP 2020, teachers in HEIs has no other choice but to opt for a different pedagogical practice. Flipped class has been proposed to answer the problems of traditional classroom and moving towards student centered classroom in higher education. In flipped learning, students are at the core of ‘knowledge construction. it is active, engaging and customizable. it also suffers from some potential hurdles while implementing it in regular teaching learning process. Initially students’ non-readiness towards the approach creates a difficult situation to implement flipped classroom. Some of very common digital apps can help the teachers to create a flipped class provided f they are ready to do so.
