Peer Instruction and the Flipped Classroom, at Talking about Teaching at Leeds University Webinar, University of Leeds (Cambridge, MA), Monday, November 18, 2013:
The basic goals of Peer Instruction are to encourage and make use of student interaction during lectures, while focusing students' attention on underlying concepts and techniques. The method has been assessed in many studies using standardized, diagnostic tests and shown to be considerably more effective than the conventional lecture approach to teaching. Peer Instruction is now used in a wide range of science and math courses at the college and secondary level. In this webinar participants will learn about Peer Instruction, discuss several models for implementing the technique into the... Read more about Peer Instruction and the Flipped Classroom

Flipping the Classroom: How to turn your students' worlds upside down, at New England Board of Higher Education (Boston, MA), Monday, October 15, 2012:
In a flipped classroom, instructors typically move information coverage outside the classroom so that that they can better leverage in-class time to address student misunderstandings and misconceptions about subject matter. The most basic and popular iteration of a flipped class is pre-recording lectures, called screencasting, on key concepts for students and putting them online for viewing and engagement before class. In this workshop, Dr. Julie Schell will provide an overview of the history of the flipped classroom and introduce a set of innovative tools that go far beyond screencasting,...

Flipping the STEM class: giving students ownership of their learning, at LASPAU Webinar, Harvard Universtiy (Cambridge, MA), Tuesday, October 2, 2012:
In this webinar I will discuss how I have "flipped" my introductory science class -- moving what is done in a traditional lecture class outside class, and moving the practice that is usually done by the students outside class into the classroom. In order to give students ownership of their learning I have combined a number of research-proven techniques in the classroom and have replaced most summative assessment by formative assessment.
