JK - A good example of 'teaching by questioning'. Strategies used by Harvard Prof Eric Mazur to ensure students really understand concepts.

Sunday June 10, 2012 at 1400 GMT Laine Marshall   For this session, Laine will share her experience flipping her  Fundamentals of Linguistics  class this spring semester for the first time.

 

For this session, Laine will share her experience flipping her Fundamentals of Linguistics class this spring semester for the first time. There were many surprises in what occurred when she decided to try the flip. She hopes to generate discussion on the rationale for the flipped classroom, what students and courses are best suited for this model and how it has worked out in her class. One of her students, Edith Ramirez-Lopez, will join in to provide the learner perspective.

Flipped Learning: A Response To Five Common Criticisms | November Learning

Flipped Learning: A Response To Five Common Criticisms | November Learning | Active learning Approaches | Scoop.it

One of the most important concepts in teaching is creating opportunities to make thinking visible. When teachers can really see the thinking of their students, they can provide these students with the support and encouragement they need to be successful. We believe that by using the thoughtful approach to the Flipped Learning method described at the beginning of this article, teachers have an amazing opportunity to gain insights into where students are struggling.

 

KF:  While somewhat simplistic the article does address some of the major concerns regarding the "flipped" model.  Like many other artilces it is very light on the requisite shifts for developing and maintaining an unapologetic student-centred environment.  The deep understanding of the drivers of SCL will be more significant than simply fiddling at the edges of practice.
