This module really helped me see both the upsides and challenges of using the flipped classroom model. What stood out most is how powerful it can be to give students more ownership of their learning. When they come to class already exposed to the material, we can use our time together to go deeper—talk through ideas, work on problems together, and clear up misunderstandings in real time. That feels like a much more meaningful use of class time.
That said, I also understand that it's not without obstacles. Some students might be resistant at first, and access to technology can be a barrier. Plus, creating the materials takes time and planning. But I believe the long-term benefits—like increased engagement and more personalized learning—make it worth trying.
I’m planning to start small, maybe flipping just one unit to see how it goes. I’ll create short, clear videos for homework, and in class, we’ll focus on applying what they learned. I’m hopeful this will make our classroom more interactive and give students a chance to really connect with the content—and with each other.
