Do not simply digitize your lectures
Be transparent with your students
Be willing to take risks and give up control
F2F time - be ungoogleable !
29. 10 Lessons I Have Learned by Flipping My Class
1. Flip your classroom only if it en-
hances students’ le arni ng.
There are many reasons why you
would want to blend face-to-face time
and online course activities. However,
the major reason and perhaps the only
one should be that this integrated ap-
proach can help increase students’
learning opportunities.
2. Flip your class and be willing to
flip your mind.
One of the biggest challenges in
implementing new strategies to flip a
class is to reassess your role as an in-
structor. Students can learn both with
and without a teacher’s physical pres--
ence. When the teacher moves the lec-
ture online, his/her role in teaching
also shifts. To flip a class, you will not
only redesign your teaching methods,
but you will also need to redefine your
role as an instructor.
3. Employing e-learning tools is
great but only supplementary in
teaching.
You should not implement an e-
learning tool just because it is new or it
can save you some lecturing time.
Technology-based materials are great
only if: a) they extend and enrich your
face-to-face teaching, and b) they en-
hance students’ engagement and learn--
ing outcomes. In addition, keep in
mind that technology may not always
work when it is needed. Therefore,
having a backup plan is always good.
It is important to be flexible with
your plans and be prepared for tech-
nical problems.
4. Be dedicated and patient: the
additional time and efforts will pay
off.
You may be concerned that flip-
ping a class will take too much prep-
aration time, and that you don’t have
a strong incentive to give it a try. In
my case, all the additional time and
efforts that I had put into flipping my
classroom paid off very quickly in
the first weeks of my blended course.
Among several benefits, the most
rewarding outcome was my students’
positive response. Be confident that
the majority of your students will
eventually love what you are doing.
Most of them will enjoy being part of
a blended learning experience and
trying out new ways to learn. They
will know that you flip the classroom
just because you care about their
learning and success.
5. Be creative and open-minded –
Take some risks.
There are infinite ways to learn. I
would encourage you to be as crea-
tive as you can when you design your
flipped course. Think outside the
box, and jot down all possible ideas.

10 Lessons I Have Learned by Flipping My Class
31. How can I make the best of my F2F time?
Discovery session
•Who are your students? What should I know about them? What inspires
them?
•What do they know already about the area that you are teaching?
•What are there past experiences? How do these experiences relate to the
course topic, area of study?
What are their professional careers perspectives? Select a career path and
relate this professional perspective with every single course assignments.
32. How can I make the best of my F2F time?
Design your course alliance
– What are the necessary agreements that have to be made?
– Define what is success on this course
– There is not right and/or wrong >> Learning is the focus
– What are the necessary skills needed for this course?
– Permission to intrude = to be inquisitive and critical
– Importance of keeping on task and meeting the course
deadlines
– Who has the learning responsibility?
33. How can I make the best of my F2F time?
Discuss the critical values of the course – specifically for the F2F
time
– Respect | Trust | Fun | Integrity | Commitment | Authenticity
Work on conflicting topics related to the course
Review your assessment tools (they should not be content
oriented, but context and competency-based
34. What kind of activities
do you do in f2f?
1. Address students questions - some of them are sent to me prior to the
f2f section
2. introduce a real-life context in which the content will be closely applied
( ex. clinical case or typical scenario)
3. ask the students challenging (deeper) questions about concepts and
how they relate with this real-life context
4. present to the students new questions that:
a) reinforce critical concepts and,
b) further their understanding and brings meaning to their knowledge.
35. Your professional experience can trigger curiosity
and inspire learning
Your class time is an oasis in the desert
36. Student’s reactions to new methodologies
What metrics are being applied to assess student
learning outcomes using the flipped classroom
model of learning versus the traditional classroom
model of learning?
Is there sufficient data to assess the effectiveness
of the flipped classroom?
