by Sandy Gambill, Instructional Designer, Reinert Center for Transformative Teaching & Learning

Classroom flipping, or using technology like Tegrity to move lecture out of physical class time, is all the rage these days, but what actually makes it an effective learning strategy for students?  Faculty are invited to attend an informal brainstorming conversation on effective flipping practices on April 17 from Noon to 1:00 pm in Allied Health Room 2002.

 

Questions to be considered

What are effective strategies for getting students to do the out of class work?

What does physical class time look like if you are not lecturing?
