The Flipped Classroom: Preparing Students for In-Class Learning with Online Activities

https://www.ohio.edu/oit/academic/flip.cfm

Dear students,

Today's topic is "The Flipped Classroom: Preparing Students for In-Class Learning with Online Activities". This method can change our habit of teaching from the traditional classroom to the new one. Everything is done in the traditional classroom, such as teaching and learning, doing exercise and discussion and a teacher usually prepares his/her teaching preparation at home. Whereas, in the flipped classroom concept, a teacher can prepare online materials and upload all for his/her students to learn and study by watching them at  home and they follow all instructions given by their teacher. In the classroom the students can only do their homework and discuss all managed by the teacher. Their works are done at class not at home. For further information of Flipped Classroom, please watch the following video in the link: https://dos-materialsdevelopment.adobeconnect.com/_a1017942336/p8rw69iwdee/?launcher=false&fcsContent=true&pbMode=normal.
