The "Flipped Classroom Technique", What works... What doesn't?...

          The "Flipped Classroom Technique" is pretty awesome in my opinion. This is when an instructor has students watch podcasts and other online materials before going to class and assessing strengths and weaknesses in said material and tailors the instruction to what is needed rather than pure lecture. Not only that, but this teaching model gives students the chance to do, what would have been homework, in class. So if you were doing your homework and you had a question, the teacher is right there.
          I love everything about this teaching model and have no doubts in its effectiveness, but I will say that for those who aren't very self motivated this can be a difficult way to make sure what needs to get done does get done.

    Yes, you've definitely been making your blog more interesting with the addition of appropriate graphics. Well done!! And I completely agree with you regarding the difficulty some may find when motivation outside the classroom comes into play. Though it should be easier, I'm noticing that some are making it more difficult.

    I agree with you 100% ! I really like this teaching method, it's great. People that make it difficult for themselves just don't understand it
