Mathematical reasoning ability need to be trained during mathematics learning process at school. Based on the field observations at school, it was found that students' mathematical reasoning abilities were still low. This was due to the hours limitation during teaching and learning process in the classroom, so learning process only focused on explaining the materials without much discussing the exercises that required reasoning abilitiy in its accomplishment. The Flipped Classroom – Based Learning Model could be an alternative to overcome this problem, because the students could learn at home by using online and offline videos. Thus, the students could prepare themselves first before discussing the reasoning exercises in the classroom. The purpose of this study is to review the advantages and challenges in applying a learning model based on Flipped Classroom. This research is a development research. The method used is a quantitative method to observe improvement in student learning outcomes and qualitative method to review the advantages and challenges of the Flipped Classroom model. The instruments in this study were final tests of mathematical reasoning abilities, questionnaires, interview guidelines, and observation sheets. Research revealed that the advantages obtained: 1) Increased learning outcomes of students; 2) Time efficiency; 3) Student involvement and satisfaction; 4) Increasing student interaction; 5) Overcoming the problem of students 'self-confidence, while the challenges in this model are 1) Lack of students' preparation; 2) Familiarize the model; 3) Limitations of self-help learning; 4) Need a lot of time and work; 5) Access to technology. © 2019, International Journal of Scientific and Technology Research.
