Richard, I really like the draft idea. Learning should not be an all or nothing experience. The idea is for students to learn and grow - but not necessarily all at once. Dr. Moody Crews

Nicole, Pulling teeth without anesthesia - great analogy. Time management is a real problem for many people and something I suggest to many students that they should seek help in dealing with this issue. Dr. Moody Crews

Katie, Good thoughts. Have you thought about how you might not only combine different activities but how you might also switch up the way you use these activities in your classroom. Dr. Moody Crews

Earle, Good choice. I wonder how experiential learning looks in your class. Is it always the same or do you change it up to keep student interest? Dr. Moody Crews

Flipped Classroom Theories

Pilar, It is difficult to decide what's most important to teach in a two hour class session. You are also correct that there will always be some students who will "get it" no matter what we do; however, that's certainly not always the case. The flipped classroom make huge strides in changing this. Dr. Moody Crews
