The ability to learn at your own pace and revisit the lecture as many times as possible is important. I've noticed in the past that i have learners that understand the lecture the first time around, and others that need additonal time. It is also easy to make flipped classroom not work for you if you are not prepaired. However with proper preperation, hands on activities, and making it fun will keep students interested possibly making the flipped classroom work to its full potential.
