Workshop Description:

Traditional teacher-led instruction no longer works. Ready to evolve your teaching style to engage students and promote active learning?

Learning is not a one-size fits all model! It is time to move away from the traditional broadcast model of teaching and instead implement an active, student-centered model. The Flipped Classroom model is an innovative, engaging, and skill-based instructional model that gives students the lead!

By flipping the classroom, you will transfer the ownership of learning to your students. This workshop will empower you to bravely move away from traditional lecture and explore inquiry based learning as your daily mode of teaching.

It's time for learning to be more flexible, effective, active, and student-centered.

Students can learn at their own pace.

When a student falls behind, they often stay behind while the rest of the class continues with the lecture. The Flipped Classroom model presents lectures to students whenever they want/need to access them, allowing them to remain stress-free as they continue learning at their own pace.

Student frustration levels lower.

With the traditional model, students who did not understand the lecture fully would get frustrated when doing their homework at home, resulting in incomplete work. This new model allows the students to ask questions in classroom, reducing frustration levels, and ensuring an increased rate of work completion.

Students engage more with peers.

Class time can be used to engage in valuable discussion. This increases concept engagement, teamwork skills, and peer understanding.

Lessons can be more personalized.

Each student learns in slightly different way and at a slightly different pace. Using the Flipped model, educators are freed up to personalize content for different levels and abilities.
