Hoffmann Malia.Hoffmann@cui.edu Catherine Webb Catherine.Webb@cui.edu What is Flipped Learning? Traditional lectured content available for outside of class viewing Podcasts/Vidcasts Slides Notes Students view content before class as homework Come to class, connect, collaborate, & create Why Flip? Promotes peer interaction and collaboration skills. Encourages higher student engagement. Makes learning central (rather than teaching). Fosters independent learning. Promotes increased individualized attention.

While every flipped classroom will vary depending on a number of factors (e.g. class size, content, professor, school resources, etc.), many follow a process similar to the following: 1. Give students an opportunity to gain first exposure to lectures before class Quick tip: Try recording your lectures and breaking them into smaller conceptual chunks. 2. Provide proper incentives for students to prepare for class Quick tip: Pairing lecture video with auto-graded assessments helps ensure that students are prepared for the subsequent in-class activities. 3. Facilitate engaged-learning activities in the classroom Quick tip: Possible activities include quizzing, small-group problem solving, extensions, applications, and peer feedback.

Pitfalls Professors don’t “sell” the flipped classroom Classroom space is not conducive to flipping Students don’t show up for class In-class activities are not relevant to out-of-class lectures Instructors assign students too much work Not all students have equal access to online materials Instructors don’t realize the amount of preparation necessary for in-class activities Students aren’t completing work assigned for outside of class Instructors have difficulty accommodating the varying ability levels of their students during inclass activities. Instructors are unable to successfully flip large lectures Professors don’t engage fellow instructors about their flipped experiences Professors still act as the “sage on the stage” rather than the “guide on the side” Exit Quiz Access www.socrative.com ● Select: student login ● Enter Code: DRWEBB ● Enter: your name ● Begin the quiz or...Scan QR code and ● Enter Code: DRWEBB Questions?
