What are flipped classrooms?

In traditional classrooms students

a) Show up for lessons and get settled
b) Review the previous night's homework
c) Listen to their teacher lecture on a topic
d) Proceed with some guided/independent learning

In a flipped classroom students

a) Watch the lectures at home the night before. These are videos produced by their teacher, school, district, or external source
b) Show up for lessons and get settled
c) Are questioned for understanding of the core concepts covered in the lecture (video)
d) Spend the majority of the lesson in guided/independent/cooperative learning

Traditional Classroom: 90% of class time is spent on delivery of content and 10% on the application of the content

Flipped Classroom: 90% of class time is spent on application of content and 10% on the delivery of the content
