Planning and Implementation of Large-Scale Online Project-Based Learning and Flipped Classes

In order to prevent the spread of COVID-19, various online collaborative learning environments have been recently designed for project-based learning (PBL) programs and lectures, which are compulsory subjects for more than 500 students. For the PBL programs, 45 groups of 500 students were formed, and an online collaborative learning environment was established with 16 faculty members providing guidance. For the lectures, an online flipped classroom environment was established with 600 students divided into four classrooms, and online peer teaching was realized by about 140 student groups. This paper describes a large-scale PBL learning program with flipped classes built online to encourage the active and autonomous learning of students and ensure education quality during the pandemic.
