Description
Implementation of flipped pedagogies in college courses is an increasing trend across various disciplines nationwide. Within a “flipped course”, students are expected to spend time on their own ahead of class watching video recordings that discuss material traditionally covered live during lecture. Live class time is then spent reinforcing and delving more deeply into the material through problem sets, open discussions on questions raised by students, and other activities. However, while the potential effectiveness of flipped pedagogies is clear, a comprehensive definition of effective approaches and practices in the “flipped classroom” is far from established. During this session, Professor Ed Brush (Chemical Sciences) and Assistant Professor Ken Adams (Biological Sciences) will share their approaches, experiences, and reflections on implementing flipped pedagogies in Organic Chemistry (Brush) and Cell Biology (Adams). Time will also be reserved for open discussion on insights, questions, and/or concerns raised by attendees.
