Flipping the Classroom (Tim Marshall)

 

Stressed about planning upcoming courses? Don’t flip out -- flip the classroom instead. The flipped classroom approach turns the tables on traditional classroom management and lesson planning. Students review lecture content and complete quizzes and exams on their own. During class time, students do what would typically be considered “homework” in structured, guided activity sessions. The flipped classroom is an active learning strategy that employs various blended learning concepts, making it an option for many courses regardless of delivery method.
