I am an enthusiastic supporter and practitioner of the "Flipped Classroom."  I see it as a very tangible reality for improving the learning outcomes of college students, the mainstream understands how and why it works.  This infographic, which I picked up via David Wicks' blog, visually communicates several of the key concepts of the Flipped Classroom.

Flipped learning, in which students watch instructional videos for homework and use class time to apply what they've learned, is catching on in many schools. But there are still some misconceptions about this strategy, and some teachers have struggled to put it into practice. With the generous support of Adobe, we've assembled this collection of stories and resources to help you make flipped learning a success in your schools.
