The Flipped Classroom

What is the Flipped Classroom?

The digital era has brought many tools that now allow for a more collaborative kind of classroom. Many teachers are using a new method of teaching in order to turn the traditional classroom on its head. This inversion of the traditional teaching model generates more interaction between teacher, student and course material. 

What are the aims of the Flipped Classroom?

• Create an engaging, interactive environment that is student-centered.

• Make the best use of your face-to-face time with your students. 

• Practice, application, and working with content is done inside of class.

• Focus on deeper meaning and connections, not just basic rote memorization and practice. 

What are the components of the Flipped Classroom?

Educational technology and activity learning are two key components of the flipped classroom model. They both influence student learning environments in fundamental ways.
