Instructors all over the globe are turning their students' worlds upside down by flipping their classrooms. In a flipped class, teachers typically move information coverage out of the lecture hall so that they can better leverage in-class time to address student misunderstandings and misconceptions about subject matter. In this webinar, Dr. Julie Schell will introduce the flipped classroom technique and its history and present some practical strategies higher education faculty can use to design learning environments that facilitate student engagement with STEM subject-matter both in and outside of class.
