Flipped Classroom
As technology becomes increasingly influential in education, methods of the learning process are changing also. The teacher centered system is changing into the student centered one, and so, the process of learning is becoming easier and a better way to develop a good way of learning is dominating. One of the ways educators are using to develop a better process of learning is by flipping classrooms(through online learning).
The previous seminar that we developed was based upon online teaching and I found it very comfortable and in the same way, attractive. The way our teacher developed the lesson made me think of how good it would be if in the future I do the same thing. I became aware of the difference to traditional teaching and I, somehow created an idea of the differences between them.
While a traditional classroom is teacher-centered, a flipped classroom is student centered. How? By taking the lecture out of the classroom and bringing homework into the classroom. Students and parents alike often suffer frustration during homework sessions because they do not understand the material. Instead of trying to apply concepts they learned in class at home by themselves, they watch a 5-7 minute lecture at home, write down any questions they may have, and apply the concepts in class with the guidance of the teacher. This method sets the student up for success.
There are many reasons why flipped classrooms are a good way to develop a good learning process since the attention shifts from teacher to student.
When students watch or listen to lectures at home, and then solve problems and apply the new knowledge in class, they get less frustrated with their homework.
Also, the time that students have in the classroom for a particular topic is limited and usually is not enough to deal with everything.
Thank you and enjoy the post!

ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed reading your post.You have made a clear contrast between the traditional classroom and a flipped one.You have clearly explained how does this method benefit both the teacher and the students.I also think that students get less frustrated when they have dealt with the material before the classroom.It gives a lot of confidence to them.Good job!
