wikipedia | Flip teaching (or flipped classroom) is a form of blended learning
in which students watch lectures online and work on problem sets with
other students in class. This approach allows teachers to spend more
time interacting with students instead of lecturing. This is also known
as backwards classroom, reverse instruction, flipping the classroom and reverse teaching.[1][2]
The traditional pattern of teaching has been to assign students to
read textbooks and work on problem sets outside school, while listening
to lectures and taking test in class. In flip teaching, the students
first study the topic by themselves, typically using video lessons prepared by the teacher[3][4] or third parties such as the Khan Academy. Classroom time is for the students to apply the knowledge by solving problems and doing practical work.[5][6][7] The teacher tutors the students when they become stuck, rather than imparting the initial lesson. Complementary techniques include[8] differentiated instruction and project-based learning.[9]
Students who have no access to computers or the internet outside school cannot participate in flipped classes.[9]
