Flipped instruction moves direct instruction outside of class time through videos or other online content for students to engage with independently, allowing more class time to be spent on active learning activities like experiments, group work, and projects. It is not simply recording lectures but making the classroom more learner-centered. The document provides examples of how to start flipping small parts of instruction and apps that can be used to create and share flipped content using an iPad.
