description ABSTRACT Aim To design and validate the Flipped‐Learning Assessment Scale; a tool for assessing students' experience of flipped learning. Background Frequently, university students are introduced to new content during lectures. In contrast, active learning activities, such as Flipped Learning, are designed as an instructional method to engages students in the learning process. Design Cross‐sectional descriptive study. Methods A cross‐sectional study was carried out in three phases ((1) item selection, rephrasing and translation; (2) content analysis through expert panel and (3) confirmatory factor analysis). The final version of the scale was piloted on a sufficient sample of undergraduate student nurses from three Spanish universities. Results A total of 455 students completed the questionnaire; 373 women and 82 men. The total Cronbach's alpha value for the complete instrument was 0.893. Cronbach alpha for each separate dimension ranged between 0.660 and 0.897. Goodness‐of‐fit values were acceptable, implying that the model was validated. Conclusion The flipped learning approach has become increasingly popular in academic settings. Evaluating the students' flipped learning experience is important to analyse aspects such as acceptability and effectiveness of this methodology. The Flipped‐Learning Assessment Scale is a valid and reliable tool for analysing students' experience of flipped learning. Impact Flipped learning has been a useful pedagogical model very for cultivating student skills in problem‐solving, critical thinking, teamwork and self‐active learning in nursing education. A key issues, such as student satisfaction, has been explored further before implementing this teaching and learning methodology. Patient or Public Contribution None.
