5 Best Practices for the Flipped Classroom - 0 views

  •  
    This is a website that is there to help teachers really think about the flipped classroom and how they could make it work effectively and smoothly. It talks about what you need to know about it, how to use engaging models, brings to mind the technology you would use to incorporate it, making sure students have an activity to reflect on what they learned, and the time and place in which the teacher would expect the student to do the tutorial. This does not say the flipped classroom is bad, it simply brings reality to it and forces the teacher to analyze how they will best implement it.
