Was a public elementary school teacher for 17 yrs before changing careers, becoming a Physical Therapist Assistant. Circled back to teaching on this level after 14 yrs in the PT field. I say that to acknowledge variances of Flipped Classroom have been presented before, utilizing technology, and have been successful. To slide into Flipped classroom concept, recoreded lectures can happen during class, and be used as remediation or review. Other sites with relevant video can pre-set the skill before application returns in labs or classroom. The biggest issue is to not fully expect all students to handle this set-up. You should be prepared to reinforce with tutorials, etc, to those relunctant to take ownership, but continue to reiterate that they must be responsible for viewing content before coming to class. They will either rise quickly to the occasion, or fall very behind.  Use the classroom time for hands-on learning, group discussions, small project presentation, cooperative learning.
