Flipped classroom is an active learning strategy that used online material to review, with the classroom becoming the place to work through problems and advance concepts. The aim of this study is to examine students’ perceptions on learning chemistry in a flipped classroom and their willingness to participate in a flipped classroom again in a matriculation college. One hundred and sixty-three students of a lecture group from Labuan Matriculation College participated in this study. Data were collected by using survey and interview which were analysed both quantitatively and qualitatively. Results of the study indicate that majority of the students were generally positive towards the flipped classroom and 86% of the subjects were willing to participate in a flipped classroom again. From this study, students’ responses revealed that the benefits of the flipped classroom are that it: (1) captures attention, (2) gains prior knowledge, (3) facilitates control over own learning, and (4) enhances deeper learning. The findings imply that lecturer should provide videos which are short, simple, animated with subtitles, reflective questions and summary.
