Abstract
Blended teaching strategy becomes an integral part of the 21st-century education system to meet the industry 4.0 needs. As not only the online system can create the best system from the points of view of effectiveness and expending cost, but also the traditional teaching style cannot meet the higher level of industry needs. Therefore, the combination of the advancement of technology and the effective design of teaching theory appears in different blended systems to promote education level. This system also proposes a new model to initiate the teaching style that can supplement the requirements of this education era based on FLIP learning terms. The system is built by blending the online and face-to-face strategies using communication technology and multimedia components at pre-class, online test, and in-class times based on stakeholders’ satisfaction with the system. The outcome intends to build an effective education system that facilitates the developing country, the Myanmar situation. Moreover, the research methodology goal includes improving the problem-solving ability and performance results of the university students and to increase the self-reflection of all participants.
