Abstract

Planning any educational innovation experience, foreseeing its results, following an effective and efficient application of the method, and even transferring it, may be difficult due to its creative character. The MAIN method (Method for Applying Innovation in educatioN) is a modeling method that allows the planning, implementation, and dissemination of educational innovation. This work presents the different steps that make up the method above: the used methodology, the included duties, the needed effort, the technological background, and its impact prediction. This paper presents a specific application of the MAIN method to solve the absence of active learning in students, and it uses the Flip Teaching method, as well as a scientific dissemination strategy of that innovation.
