The flipped classroom strategy
Teaching using the flipped classroom strategy is one of the most prominent modern trends in the field of educational technology, as this strategy relies on the opposite of what happens in the traditional classroom environment by transferring the learning process outside the classroom and allocating classroom time for more enriching learning activities, and developing higher cognitive and mental skills among students in This article will provide a simple explanation of this strategy:
🟢In this strategy, the teacher prepares a visual and audio file, through which he explains the concepts and cognitive aspects of the target skills and values, to be accessible to students and available to them over time before coming to the classroom.
🟢 The flipped classroom contains two main types of educational activities, the first of which is group interactive learning among students during class time, and the second is individual directed learning outside class time.
🟢The flipped classroom is not synonymous with educational video as some think, but e-learning materials may vary in the form of presentations, e-books or educational platforms, but the video remains an essential educational tool in it.
🟢The success of the flipped classroom depends on the teacher’s ability to prepare educational materials in a variety of formats and provide real interactive activities based on active learning in the classroom.
🟢Invest more time in the classroom to practice applications related to the course content learned outside the classroom.
🟢Invest more time in the classroom to practice applications related to the course content learned outside the classroom. The inverted classroom environment is centered around the learner, during which the educational process system is reversed, so that the learner learns the theoretical aspects of the study subjects at home.
And vice versa.
From the above, we conclude that the flipped classroom is an important and influential teaching strategy in the learning and teaching processes; As it takes into account the individual differences and the student’s subjective speed in acquiring knowledge and skills, it develops communication skills between the student and the teacher and between him and his colleagues on the other hand, and the learner turns from a recipient of information to a researcher and an effective user of technology outside the classroom.
At BACT, we are always keen to provide the latest teaching strategies to be applied and utilized in the classroom, promoting active learning, emphasizing learner positivity and thus, improving the quality of education.
