Soneka, These are very good points. One point that I would argue is the "home life" as a barrier specifically for the flipped classroom. I do believe that home life is a barrier for education in general; however, I don't know if it really makes any difference if it is the review of material prior to class or homework after class. I think the same problem will exist. Dr. Moody Crews

Instructor Adaptations

Angela, You are absolutely correct that without administrations support, nothing will happen. Also, starting off slow is not such a bad idea. This gives the instructor time to make sure they are prepared to assist their students. Dr. Moody Crews

Bloomâ€™s Taxonomy

Diane, Excellent points. Getting students to provide constructive evaluation of themselves and their fellow students is difficult. They seem to only want to give feedback on what was done well. Dr. Moody Crews

Implementing a Flipped Classroom

Anthony, I understand what you're saying. Sometimes it may be better to create your own instructional videos to make sure the concepts are presented properly and in the manner that fits the content you are teaching. This takes more time at the front, but may allow for a richer experience in some instances. Dr. Moody Crews
