Flipped vs. Traditional Class
Flipped Classroom
• Teacher as “Guide on the
Side”
• Teacher records and shares
lessons or lectures outside of
class
• Students watch/listen before
coming to class and take notes
• Class time devoted to applied
learning activities and higher
order thinking tasks
• Students receive support from
teacher and peers
Traditional Classroom
• Teacher as ”Sage on the
Stage”
• Teacher prepares materials to
be delivered in class
• Students listen to lectures and
other guided instruction in
class and take notes
• Homework is assigned to
demonstrate understanding
and apply learning

instruction

instruction

Pros and Cons
Students no longer struggle with concepts
alone outside of class time
Making sure every student has a computer
and internet access
Students can skip parts of the lesson they
already understand and re-watch new or
challenging ideas.
Students cannot ask questions for
clarification during a recorded lesson.
Applied learning in the classroom Technology issues
Differentiated Instruction Designing and grading frequent
assessment
Students are given ownership and
responsibility for their own learning.
Students have trouble “buying in” to
instruction, especially when it is not created
by the instructor.
Students come to class prepped and ready
to learn. No down time.
Determining how to handle students who
do not complete the homework video.
Videos include links for deeper thinking and
further learning.
Creating or finding quality videos for each
lesson.
Teacher can spend class time working one-
on-one or in small groups with students.
