Abstract :
The study examines the impacts of flipped hybrid learning model on retention of concept learnt in physics among senior secondary two students (SS II) in Physics in Akwa Ibom North -West Senatorial District. A quasi experimental pre-test post-test non-randomised control group design was adopted for the study. Two research questions and two null hypotheses were formulated to guide the study. Physics Achievement Test instrument was used for data collection from sample size of 184 students. The instrument was validated by three content and media design experts. A reliability of 0.73 was obtained with split half method using Pearson Product Moment Correlation, which was converted using Spearman Brown formula to have reliability co-efficient of 0.84. Mean and Standard Deviation were used in answering all the research questions and Analysis of Covariant was used for testing all the hypotheses at 0.05 significant level. The results obtained shows that the use of flipped hybrid learning model enhanced students? academic retention in physics, since students taught with the model did better. The study also shows that male students taught with flipped hybrid learning model had greater mean retention scores than female students taught with the model. Hence it is concluded that the use of flipped hybrid learning model enhanced students? academic retention. Based on this findings, it is recommended that teachers, educational administrators and Curriculum designers should adopt flipped hybrid learning model to enhance students academic retention.
