Flipping the College Classroom: Practical Advice from Faculty

Looking for the definitive resource on flipping the college classroom? Look no further. Read Flipping the College Classroom: Practical Advice from Faculty. As active learning takes hold in classrooms across college and university campuses, faculty members and instructors are looking for effective ways to adapt their courses and lessons to the new learning environment.

Flipped instruction is a popular method that exposes students to course content, such as readings and online lectures, outside of the classroom and then uses class time to analyze, synthesize, and apply that information. Those in-class activities are critical. To develop students comprehension of course content, instructors must effectively engage students and motivate them to prepare beforehand and attend ready to participate.
