The Flipped Classroom: Rethinking the Way You Teach
A flipped classroom consists of lecture outside of class and active engagement inside of class. Teachers who flip their classrooms create new possibilities for active learning, but what are the most pedagogically sound tools and techniques for teaching the inverted model?
A recording of this online seminar presented by Ike Shibley, Ph.D., an associate professor of chemistry at Penn State Berks, and Timothy D. Wilson, Ph.D., an assistant professor at the University of Western Ontario can be accessed here through August 31st. A CD of this online seminar will be available for loan in September. If interested send an email to Rebecca Sholes at rebecca.sholes@tufts.edu.
In this seminar the presenters:
- examine the technology that facilitates the flip;
- explore the types of active learning possible in the newly liberated face-to-face time; and
- put the flipped model into context with what is known about how learning works in the brain.
