Why Does it Work? Pre-class: •  Students are accountable •  Students can pace their own

learning, plan ahead •  Priming effect through low level

learning (e.g., know, be aware) In Class: •  Everyone thinks, listens,

speaks, participates •  Students collaborate to

problem-solve with higher order thinking

After Class: •  Encourages reflection to

improve communication/delivery of content

•  Students can revisit, review content at their own pace

To Learn More…. •  Berrett, D. (2012). How ‘flipping’ the classroom can improve the traditional lecture.

Figure Out which topics to Flip; start

small

Locate/ create a

resource for out-of-class

activity

Incentivize students to complete the work

Process concepts and apply content in-

class

Create TechSmith Recordings YouTube, CD/DVD Recordings, Tutorials Use Guide Questions to prompt Reflection at Critical points

Media Based

Resources Web Games: Anatomy Arcade Mobile Apps: iMedical Apps Pocket Brain

Product Review Exercise related to Learning

Digital Based

Resources Collaborative: Blogs, Wikis, Google Docs

Self-Directed: FlashCard App, Terminology List, Low-stakes Test

Pre-class Tasks Case Analysis/

PBL Debate/Critique Presentations/Group work

Cooperative learning – Jigsaw Responseware, Polling Technology

In-class Activities

Why Does it Flop? Students: •  When they perceive that they

“have to teach ourselves” •  Duplication of efforts may be

viewed as busywork •  Incentives become extrinsic

motivators Faculty: •  Do not provide immediate

feedback to students •  Lack of follow-through from

faculty •  Higher order thinking takes

place outside of class vs. inside of class (limited opportunity to role-model)

•  Inadequate planning •  Taking on too much at once

What is it? Flipping the classroom, also known as, inverted teaching is a teaching approach where traditional delivery of content is conducted outside of the classroom and assignments that require higher order thinking and doing are completed in the classroom.
