Alfredo Prieto Martín, associate professor, holds a PhD in Immunology at Universidad de Alcalá. He has received many awards -both in research and teaching fields. He is coordinator of the research team Grupo Magistrales Anónimos. He has written this book with many expert professors that have been using flipped learning in their different lessons for a very long time. Based on their wide experience teaching at university and training teachers, the authors discuss about the most efficient ways to successfully use this teaching model, either in higher education or other education levels.
