Abstract: The purpose of this research is to explore the difference between teachers’ flipped classroom design and students’ perception of the flipped classroom method. There is growing interest in flipped classroom methodology. However, there have been very few studies on the use of the flipped classroom strategy in Japanese high schools. We analyzed the data of 351 students which were collected through a questionnaire. The results of the study indicated that the teachers and students perceived the flipped classroom method differently.
