The Flipped Model

Flipped Learning
http://youtu.be/4a7NbUIr_iQ

What Is A Flipped Learning Experience?
• Learners are first exposed to new material /
knowledge prior to class using videos of lectures,
reading assignments on handouts for example.
• Valuable class time is then used to engage
learners in assimilating the content being
presented, perhaps through problem-solving,
discussion, or debates.

What Is Flipped PD?
• Large Group Instruction
• Once pace for all
• One time
• Passively engaged
• Non-coached
Traditional PD
• Individual/small group
instruction
• Individualized pacing
• Ongoing
• Actively engaged
• Coached

being a “Guide by the
Side”

rather than lecture
