I think the good thing about a flipped class is it allows for students and teachers to have deeper discussions on topics instead of just having the teacher present and test, more active learning.
I believe that having a flip classroom is the way of the future. Especially in the time we are in right now with the pandemic crisis. I have used flip classroom before and I have had great success with it. Making sure you have enough material in the online resource is a key.
I like students doing hands-on learning in my classes. By flipping the classroom, we will have more time for hands-on projects while they're in the classroom without having to give up any content sharing through lecture.
With the right group of students and acceptance from your organization a flipped classroom can significantly enhance the learning experience.
I understand that implementing this new strategy will take time and that it is important to get everyone on board and be ready to defend the idea behind it with facts and figures. I also learned that it is something that allows the students to take a more vested interest in their learning.
This is a very neat concept, which definitely puts more responsibility in the hands of the student. I also appreciate it as a new/different dynamic, which gives the Instructor options.
THe flipped classroom is a great tool which is adaptive to the current generation of learners. However, it does take time and resources to establish.
Core elements of a flipped classroom and the importance of getting stakeholder (i.e. student) buy-in.
Flipped classroom is an intructional strategy which is called " flipped" because it revolves around student engagement. The traditional instructional strategy is where the teacher teach everything to the students ( leacture ). Some of the advantages of the flipped classroom includes increased interaction, increased personalized contact time, a combination of direct intruction aqnd hands on learning.
I understand now it is Okay to post lecture material as it allows student to go back and seek clarification. I like that this porstion of the learning demonstrated the "at home" is the lecture while the "homework" is the in class material. Again, knowing this I will be begin to transition to having more activities, role playing, or discussions in class and posting "lecture" in the LMS we use.
