Summary:The Flipped Classroom is an innovative pedagogical methodology. This approach brings multiple skills to the student during the teaching-learning process. In the subject of the second year of the Primary Education Teacher’s Degree, Attention to Specific Educational Needs (ASEN) this methodology has been implemented.

A few weeks before the end of the subject, it was administered to the students of the group of the subject of ASEN. The sample consisted of 45 students. The results showed that 68,8% of the students prefer the Flipped Classroom instead of the traditional classes and 77,7% 77.7% of the students consider that they assimilated the contents better with the Flipped Classroom than with the traditional methodology.
