Difference Between Traditional Pedagogy and Flipped Classroom

Katie, Very true. The flipped classroom allows the instructor more opportunity to share experiences because the basics are already set so the discussion should be much richer. Dr. Moody Crews

Difference Between Traditional Pedagogy and Flipped Classroom

Austin, Excellent points. It sounds like you've been using this very effectively. Isn't it nice when students come to class ready to discuss. The learning goes so much deeper than by using nothing but the traditional lecture format. Dr. Moody Crews

Leslie , Absolutely. Only the students can tell us what they know and don't know. Mastery is the goal. Dr. Moody Crews

Kimberlee, Sometimes it is best to move at a slower, more focused pace. Better to do some things well as you feel comfortable rather than jumping in with both feet before you're ready. Continue consulting with colleagues and you will get there. Dr. Moody Crews

Instructor Adaptations

Tina, I understand - we've all been there. My suggestion would be to check out the following software/resources: Jing, CamStudio, Shutter, etc. These will help in making your recordings. The Illinois Online Network (ION) also has a lot of resources for teaching on-line or in a blended environment. I hope this helps. Dr. Moody Crews

Future of the Flipped Classroom

SUSAN, Thank you for your thoughts. I will say that technology is just like any other teaching tool - it can be overdone and it can be abused by the instructor and/or the student. However, I'm pretty sure that technology is here to stay and something our students expect. If we don't get on board and use it effectively, someone else will be more than happy to use it ineffectively. Dr. Moody Crews
