The flipped classroom is a teaching approach where students get their first exposure to course content before coming to class. As the term suggests, a flipped classroom upends the traditional formula for delivering course content. Instead of listening to a lecture during a class period, students work on applying knowledge gleaned from previously shared material, such as a recorded lecture, a video, or written document. A goal of the flipped classroom is to engage students in active learning, wherein they can work on pertinent, well-designed exercises, participate in group work, and/or explore the implications of concepts raised in the lecture in order to promote a deeper understanding of a concept.
