Technology-enhanced learning requires a higher level of thinking from students. The transition from cognition to metacognition doesn’t happen automatically. Teacher mediation is needed. In this presentation the adapted flipped learning AB class model enables teachers to transform from a role of content delivery to a role of thinking facilitator through mediation. Active teacher mediation could be an effective way to overcome varying readiness in an AB class model by engaging all students in an interactive learning environment. The case study was conducted for half a semester on three different subjects in an AB class model learning environment to explore a unique phenomenon of teacher mediation in terms of when (top-down approach by leadership management), what (intervention), how (designed instructional talk) and why (facilitate their metacognitive thinking). The insights gained from the case can develop additional ideas (a talk pattern) that might be explored in future studies and other cases.
