USING THE FLIPPED CLASSROOM MODEL IN A COLLEGE READING COURSE “Revolutionizing Learning to Enhance Student Success.” TOPICS COVERED IN THIS PRESENTATION Description of • the study • the flipped classroom • positive flipped outcomes • instructional activities designed to achieve flipped outcomes • the course itself • the results of the study BRIGHAM YOUNG UNIVERSITY STUDENT DEVELOPMENT & CENTER FOR TEACHING & LEARNING PURPOSE OF THE STUDY Determine 1. the degree to which flipped classroom outcomes occurred in a college reading course (student survey). 2. the instructional activities that influenced those outcomes (student survey). BRIGHAM YOUNG UNIVERSITY STUDENT DEVELOPMENT & CENTER FOR TEACHING & LEARNING DEFINITION OF THE FLIPPED CLASSROOM BRIGHAM YOUNG UNIVERSITY STUDENT DEVELOPMENT & CENTER FOR TEACHING & LEARNING STUDENTS GAIN FUNDAMENTAL KNOWLEDGE PRIOR TO COMING TO CLASS BRIGHAM YOUNG UNIVERSITY STUDENT DEVELOPMENT & CENTER FOR TEACHING & LEARNING SO THEY CAN THEN APPLY THAT KNOWLEDGE IN CLASS BRIGHAM YOUNG UNIVERSITY STUDENT DEVELOPMENT & CENTER FOR TEACHING & LEARNING CONTRAST WITH TRADITIONAL MODEL Traditional Pre Class Students prepare for lecture Flipped Pre Class Students are held accountable to learn new course material In Class Instructor lectures on mostly pre class material In Class Class debriefs pre-class work Instructor provides realtime feedback on inclass assignments Post/Pre Class Studentsapply lecture thru HW prepare for next class Post/Pre Class Studentsfinish inclass assignments prepare for next class Students receive feedback on HW a day or week later (not in real time) HOW DID THE FLIPPED CLASSROOM GET STARTED?

Students who put more effort into being meta-cognitively aware tended to have better peer and instructor interaction with the material.. 2. Meaningful hands on learning was influenced by a combination of effective inclass (class discussion) and out of class (videos and thinksheets) activities. 3. Class discussions appear to be the place where students became aware of whether multiple flipped classroom outcomes were occurring.. 4. Guided practice through thrnksheets appeared to have some influence on multiple flipped outcomes as well. 5. Integration days were viewed as the most helpful learning activity in the class. 6. Reading logs were not viewed as helpful as other learning activities, but were very helpful for those who took advantage of them to become more meta-cognitvely aware. TEN GENERAL OBSERVATIONS AFTER FLIPPING A COLLEGE READING CLASS A flipped college reading course may be effective 1. 2. if the focus of the course is on student performance.. preclass material combines a clear theoretical explanation, demonstration, practice, and meta-cognitive reflection. 3. pre-class skills are expanded upon inclass. 4. instructional activities are designed to optimize flipped classroom outcomes. 5. an instructor is willing to invest in the upfront costs to develop the course. 6. integration days are used to help students meta-cognitvely put it all together. 7. an instructor is willing to develop the skill of meaningful inclass coaching. 8. time is allocated to meaningfully evaluate student performance along the way. 9. a final exam is developed and captures the essence of what is to be learned in the course. 10. students keep the final exam always in mind as they complete assignments in and out of class. 11. there is a desire to maintain better curriculum continuity across multiple instructors teaching the same course.
