Flipped Learning: Pathway to Student Success - Cancelled

Transforming the classroom environment from teacher-centered to learner-centered can be achieved by questioning traditional lecture and homework methods and integrating engaged-learning activities. This completely changes the classroom dynamics and makes students more responsible for their own learning. Student attendance, engagement, participation, and conceptual understanding sharply increase and result in vastly improved student-learning outcomes and student success. Come explore the possibilities offered by the flipped classroom model, engage with other participants, and leave with a variety of interactive engagement activities that can be implemented immediately.

By the end of this workshop, participants know or will be able to:

• Describe the advantages of the flipped learning model.
• Identify at least 10 strategies/tools that can be used to promote active engagement in their class.
• Have the confidence to implement the flipped model in their classroom.

Plans for Audience Participation and Interaction:
Active engagement activities are embedded throughout the session as a means of engaging participants, getting them to reflect upon the material as it is introduced, and showcasing activities they can apply in their classrooms. Polling questions are strategically used to get a quick sense of participants’ experience in various topics and willingness to try different activities. The chat is used so participants can provide answers to specific questions (e.g., What would they like to improve in their classroom? How will they know if a flipped classroom is successful?). Breakout rooms are used so participants can engage with each other in small groups to share their perceptions about the activities described and voice their concerns about flipping a classroom. At the conclusion of the workshop, participants are provided the outline of a flipped learning implementation plan they can use to identify which activities they want to integrate into their flipped classroom. In addition, each participant is asked to complete a 3-2-1 Activity during which they reflect on the workshop and identify three things they learned, two things they want to learn more about, and one thing they can’t wait to share with someone else.

All workshop participants can obtain, at no additional cost:

• A digital badge and certificate that provide a web-enabled, verifiable documentation of your professional learning experience.
• CEUs, which are awarded by passing the post-workshop learning assessment with a score of 80% or better.
