Summary/Abstract: This study aims to characterize conceptions of flipped classroom. Results from a survey to 58 Portuguese Higher Education teachers evidenced that approximately half of respondents defined the flipped classroom as a model where ´lectures are recorded as videos for students to view outside of class time freeing up time in class to engage in discussions and problem solving’. This points to core characteristics of flipped classroom as video lectures, student-centred learning, collaborative learning in-class activities. This is in line with answers to the open-ended question.
