Flipped classroom patterns: designing valuable in-class meetings

Authors Info & Claims
Published:08 July 2015Publication History

ABSTRACT

The flipping classroom approach is directed at getting students well-prepared in class so that the valuable face-to-face time during the in-class meetings can be used more efficiently to support students' learning. This requires a radical change of the role of the lecturers, as they are not knowledge transmitters anymore but learning facilitators. This role change has direct impact on the design of the in-class-meetings.

Based on five years of experience with flipped classrooms for learning programming in bachelor computing programs and on an educational and organization analysis, we started to collect and describe patterns that help with improving various aspects of Flipped Classrooms. In this paper we describe five patterns that help with the design and execution of in-class meetings in a Flipped Classroom course.
