The flipped classroom
Why flip the classroom?
Take content out of the classroom and bring in meaningful activities into the classroom.
Teachers record their lessons. Students watch the lessons at home. Students can work at their own pace. Students can listen to the lesson again. The teacher has more time to deal with
difficulties individually.
