Flippin’ Awesome Examples:
A “Flipped Classroom” is a classroom that uses class time to do activities/lessons (guided by the teacher) and “homework” time for guided instruction, usually through video. Basically, it turns a classroom upside down: the learning of a topic is done at home and then the applied practice or work is done at school.
