What is a flipped classroom?
A flipped classroom moves initial access to core content before class and uses class time for supported practice and discussion.
Core approach and practice
Conceptual framework Learners prepare with a short video, text or interactive resource. Class time is then used for problem solving, experiments, cases or discussion; the value lies in reallocating time, not simply using video. Implementation steps Pre-class material should be concise, accessible and aligned. A brief check reveals preparation, while equivalent school access is provided for learners without resources at home.
Evaluation and practical cautions
Contribution to learning The model can reserve class time for feedback and challenging application. Learners can replay or reread material, and teachers can address misconceptions directly. Limits and sound use Device, internet and quiet-space inequalities can undermine participation. Watching a long video is not active learning by itself; in-class task quality matters.
