21st Century Network
Flipping Classrooms: what it is, how it works, why it is effective
for 21st century learning
Flipping classrooms is a model of teaching and learning that inverts the
traditional structure of teachercentered instruction in class and homework
at home. The advantage for students is that they can watch an explanation
and demonstration of a concept on their computers at their convenience
and use classroom time to hone their skills and apply learning under the
guidance of their teacher and fellow students. Teachers can differentiate
instruction more easily and students can learn at their own pace and take
responsibility for their learning.
