This blog is
a part of assignment assigned to us in eFDP; Faculty Development Programme 2020
for MKBU Teachers. Here I will be writing something about Flipped Learning.
What is
Flipped Learning?
Flipped
Learning is “a pedagogical approach in which direct instruction moves from the
group learning space to the individual learning space, and the resulting group
space is transformed into a dynamic, interactive learning environment where the
educator guides students as they apply concepts and engage creatively in the
subject matter.”
It is a
learner centered approach where learners are given an environment to work on
their own pace, atmosphere and time through videos and other resources. Then
the teacher discusses in the class if the learners have any doubt.
Here I am
sharing one article and a video on Flipped Learning which enhanced my
understanding about the topic.
Article on
Flipped Learning from Academia.edu
“Using
Flipped Learning to Facilitate Cross-Cultural Critical Thinking in the L2
Classroom” by Birgit . A. Jensen ( East Carolina University)
https://www.academia.edu/43097683/Using_Flipped_Learning_to_Facilitate_Cross-Cultural_Critical_Thinking_in_the_L2_Classroom
This article
proposes using the flipped learning approach to help solve this dilemma of
insufficient time. The first part of the article differentiates between
“flipped classroom” and “flipped learning,” and then how it can enrich the
cultural offerings of conventional L2 textbooks. The second part of the article
describes practical implications of flipped learning. It provides sample
assignments from a flipped learning module.The third part of the article
encompasses reflective analyses from student and instructor perspectives as well
as pedagogical recommendations for using flipped learning to enhance critical
cultural awareness by promoting cross-cultural critical thinking skills.
Video on Flipped Learning from Youtube.
This Video
highlights the basic of Flipped Learning. It clears the concept in very
effective way.
Hope this
will help you as well to know something about Flipped Learning.
Happy
Learning!!!!
