What is a Flipped Classroom?

A Flipped Classroom occurs when direct instruction is moved from the group learning environment (traditional classroom) to the individual learning space.

Often interpreted as the teacher recording the lecture, usuallyin a video, posting it online,and that becomes the students’ homework.

Presentation Title runs here l 00/00/004

Flipped Learning moves from a teacher-centered classroom to a student-centered learning environment.

Class time is then used for active problem solving by students and one-to-one or small group interactions with the teacher. Students can watch the short lectures as many times as they wish to grasp the content and come to class ready to jump into the lesson, answer questions, work on collaborative projects, and explore the content further.

Educators are embracing Flipped Learning in elementary and secondary schools for all subjects.


Ask: What is the best use of class time? Flipped Learning may be the answer.

Instruction Practice Application Discussion Remediation Assessment


Flipped Learning “flips” Bloom’s Taxonomy and off loads the lower-order skills (remembering and understanding) from the classroom and gets to the higher-order learning skills in the new learning environment.

Key Course Outcomes:

• Determine what to “time shift” or off load (flip) for the course or unit or lesson

• Decide where in the learning cycle to incorporate a video lesson -- beginning, middle, end, review, assessment, student created

• Develop intentional content

• Flip a class in a Socratic, traditional, mastery or inquiry-based learning environment


Foundations of Flipped Learning introduces the Four Pillars of F-L-I-P™

THE Guiding Principles of Flipped Learning

Flipped Learning requires: A Flexible Environment

The flipped classroom must allow for a variety of learning modes; educators will often physically rearrange their learning space to accommodate the lesson or unit.

Additionally, flipped educators have to be comfortable with a flexible learning environment in which students choose when and where they learn outside of class. They have to accept that the in-class time is going to seem somewhat chaotic and noisy, as compared with the quiet typical of a well-behaved class during a lecture.


Flipped Learning requires: A Shift in Learning Culture

In the Flipped Learning model, educators are more cognizant of the content they choose to deliver and determine what direct instruction, or traditional lecture, can be time shifted.

When age appropriate, students are empowered to find content on their own, while educators help them make connections and build their own understanding and proficiency. Parents and community must be kept engaged and informed for the culture to shift in this new model.


Flipped Learning requires: Intentional Content

Educators must continually think about how they can use the Flipped Learning model to help students gain conceptual understanding, as well as procedural fluency when needed.

They must evaluate what they need to teach and what materials student should explore on their own. Educators may adopt various methods of instruction such as active learning strategies, peer instruction, problem-based learning, or mastery or Socratic methods, depending on grade level and subject matter.


Flipped Learning requires: Professional Educators

The role of the teacher is even more important and is often more demanding in a flipped classroom than in a traditional one. During class time, teachers continually observe their students, providing them with feedback relevant in the moment, and assessing their work. There is a deliberate shift from a teacher-centered to a student-centered class.

Also, educators must be able to connect with each other to improve their trade, to accept constructive criticism, and to tolerate controlled classroom chaos.
