Flipped Learning

In today’s episode, we’ll explore how to use flipped learning to enhance classroom achievement and connections.

The Basics

• Flipped learning is a blended learning model.
• The work that students typically complete for homework is flipped to in-class, and their in-class work is flipped to homework.
• This is often embedded into other blended learning models.

Strategies for Motivating Students to Complete Homework

• Set clear expectations and hold students accountable to them.
• Require students to watch the videos when they get to class.
• Create in-class activities that students don’t want to miss.
• Find out why they didn’t do the work.
• Employ an in-class flipped model.

• Student engagement

• Feasibility of other blended learning models

Implementation Tips

• You don’t have to create all the flipped content.
