Description
The idea of the Flipped Classroom has been around for many years, but in order for it to be valuable the purpose of the flip must be clearly understood, and the method must be used judiciously. Over-flipping leads instructors and students alike to believe that the entire process is poor pedagogy.
In this talk, I describe the general Flipped Classroom and analyze the parts of the introductory physics course that could be flipped to the best benefit of the student and the instructor. Attention will be given to engendering student participation in the process, and identifying aspects of the course that do not work well with this pedagogy.
