Flipped classrooms 101: An introduction to the flipped classroom

Instructors all over the globe are turning their students' worlds around by flipping their classrooms. In a flipped class, teachers move information coverage out of the lecture hall so that they can better leverage in-class time to address student difficulties and misconceptions. In this interactive session, Dr. Julie Schell will flip the workshop by providing brief introductory, pre-workshop activities to participants. During the workshop, she will discuss the why, what, and how of flipped classrooms by confronting and resolving a series of common myths about flipped teaching. Participants will have an opportunity to share ways in which theyhave flipped their own classes and learn about two research-based tools to facilitate flipping. (1 hour 15 min.)
