Flipped Classroom (flipp) is described in both school and scientific contexts as a new teaching method where the individual pupil and her active learning is placed at the center and where lesson time to a greater extent is used for discussion and laboratory work, while information gathering takes place outside lesson time via ICT. Flipp has in recent years become widely spread in Sweden, which is why it is interesting to investigate flipp in a Swedish context. This has so far been made to a very limited extent. This study aims to deepen the understanding of flipp as a teaching method as the method appears in the speech and actions of upper secondary school teachers who claim they use flipp when they teach. The study addresses three general issues. First, teachers' purposes with flipp are explored, second, the roles that emerge in flipped teaching is investigated and third, individualization in teaching where flipp is applied. The study is a case study based on interviews and observations with three upper secondary school teachers who flip their teaching. The study is based on social constructivist theory formation and Dewey's progressivist philosophy of education is the discussion partner in this study. Previous research suggests that in the development of flip, inspiration was drawn from pedagogical ideas from the early 1900s, which makes it advisable to discuss possible points of contact between flipp as expressed in the case study, and progressivism. Previous research presents flipp as a method for creating flexibility and individualization as well as a method that helps the teacher and students spend more time together for laboratory work and discussions. The teachers express that flipping helps the students to become active during lessons. Observations, however, show that there are significant problems with the students not preparing for the lesson to the extent that was expected, which will have negative consequences for the opportunities to work and discuss during lessons as intended. The study thus shows evidence that there is a discrepancy between the image that the teachers produce and the image of the flip that has been observed. / Denna licentiatuppsats handlar om hur gymnasielärare som flippar uppfattar och tillämpar undervisningsmetoden. I studien undersöks vilka syften lärarna har med att flippa, vilka roller lärare och elever har när man flippar och i vilken mån flipp kan bidra till att individualisera undervisningen. Tre verksamma gymnasielärare har deltagit i studien och de har intervjuats och observerats vid flera tillfällen. Flipp beskrivs av lärarna som har deltagit i studien som en undervisningsmetod som kan bidra till att de kan göra undervisningen mera individualiserad och flexibel. Studien visar även att den omdisponering av tid, som flipp syftar till, innebär att lärare ger elever ansvar för att på egen hand arbeta med grundläggande kunskapsinhämtning, vilket i kombination med andra bärande element i flipp, kan missgynna elever som av olika anledningar har svårigheter i skolan.
