Providing an opportunity for faculty, graduate students, and professional staff to gather with colleagues to listen, discuss, comment, interact and reflect on a variety of topics to enhance teaching and learning.
The Institute for Teaching & Learning offers the following workshop
Flipped Courses
Marny Lawton & David Des Amier, Jr., CETL-eCampus
In a flipped classroom, students’ first exposure to new material is outside the classroom and class time is focused on higher order learning. In this Lunchtime Seminar we will discuss the different aspects of the flipped classroom and show courses that have already been developed to follow this model. We will discuss how the flipped course:
1. Allows for differentiated instruction
2. Encourages active and deeper learning
3. Increases student-faculty and student-student interaction
4. Increases opportunities for feedback
5. Encourages time on task
6. Communicates high expectations
