The Flipped Classroom: Strategies to Overcome Student Resistance and Increase Student Engagement

Explore strategies you can use to create a successful flipped learning experience for you and your students.

Views on the flipped classroom vary, but research has shown that it is an effective teaching strategy that can often improve student learning.

The flipped classroom model encourages students to complete preliminary work prior to class so they are prepared to engage in higher-level learning experiences during class. The success of this model depends on the students in attendance having done the preclass work you assign.

Many students don’t do the preclass assignments and come unprepared to participate. At first, this will be one of the most frustrating parts of the flipped classroom model, and you may consider abandoning the approach completely. But there are strategies you can use to address these challenges and increase students motivation to come to class prepared and ready to engage.

One place to begin is to understand why students are coming unprepared. What is preventing them from doing the preclass work? How can you help them see the value of the flipped classroom model? And if students are resistant to this type of learning environment, what can you do to help them adjust to their new roles?
