Nursing educators have been asked to incorporate teaching and learning strategies that prepare nursing graduates to work in healthcare environments that require higher levels of thinking and clinical judgment. It is imperative that nurse educators use evidence-based teaching strategies that reflect the actualities of nursing practice. The flipped classroom is a pedagogical approach that promotes critical thinking. However, the topic of nursing faculty's experiences implementing a flipped classroom in a synchronous virtual learning environment has continued to be under-researched. The purpose of this study was to explore the experiences of nursing faculty who have implemented a flipped classroom in a synchronous virtual learning environment. A basic qualitative approach was used for the study to explore the experiences of nursing faculty who have implemented the flipped classroom in a synchronous virtual learning environment. Ten pre-licensure undergraduate nursing faculty members who were recruited through approved social media sites and met the inclusion criteria were included in the study. Data were collected using semi-structured interviews via the video conferencing platform Zoom. A comparative analysis was used to identify patterns in the data and subsequent themes. Four themes emerged: 1) development of knowledge, 2) challenges of implementation, 3) successes of implementation, and 4) recommendations to future faculty. The study revealed that faculty experienced comparable challenges and successes consistent with what is noted in recent literature; however, the unexpected findings were: 1) inconsistent training methods for faculty and 2) how important managing the classroom was to successful implementation. The findings supported the need to understand faculty's experiences, successes, and challenges in order to promote nursing faculty's knowledge in implementing the flipped classroom in a synchronous virtual learning environment.
