The flipped classroom
Instructional strategy where traditional homework and lectures are reversed. Students are introduced to new content at home, typically through video lectures or other digital means, and then use class time for interactive exercises, discussions, and collaborative projects. This approach seeks to optimize face-to-face interaction and hands-on activities, fostering deeper understanding and engagement.
Promotion of Active Learning:
Student-Centered Approach: The flipped classroom places students at the center of the learning process, allowing them to take charge of their educational journey and explore topics at their own pace.
Collaborative Learning: Classroom time is often used for group activities, discussions, and projects, fostering teamwork, communication skills, and peer learning.
Equity and Access:
Diverse Learning Styles: By offering content in varied formats (videos, readings, interactive modules), the flipped classroom caters to different learning preferences and needs.
Flexibility: Students can access and revisit digital content as needed, allowing for more personalized and flexible learning experiences.
Community and Relationship Building:
Strengthening Teacher-Student Bonds: With the shift from traditional lecturing, educators can spend more one-on-one time with students, addressing individual queries, and building stronger relationships.
Peer Support: The collaborative nature of in-class activities fosters a sense of community and mutual support among students.

Description
The flipped classroom is a type of blended learning that is a departure from the didactic method of teaching where the teacher lectures and students listen passively. The concept is to approach how we typically run the class in a totally different way. Instead of students watching the teacher lecture in class and apply their understanding in homework, the flipped classroom, well, flips that.
