A Study on Video Length in Pre-class Homework for Effective Application of Flipped Learning

In our research, we delved into the impact of video length assigned for pre-class assignments on students’ level of engagement. What we discovered is that as the length of the video increases, student engagement tends to decrease and the time allocated for homework preparation does not significantly influence engagement, as many students tend to complete their assignments just before the due date. Interestingly, the well-known “6-minute rule” often advocated for online educational videos does not align with the dynamics of real university settings. Whether in traditional lecture-based classes or flipped learning environments, students exhibit a high degree of self-responsibility when it comes to video consumption. Our findings strongly suggest that, in the context of flipped learning, it is advisable to create videos that are shorter than 15 minutes in length.
