Flip, but Don't Flop:

Managing the Mix of In-Class and Online Language Learning

Saint Anselm College - Manchester, NH

Oct. 24th-25^th

 

You may hear some of your colleagues in conversations mention that they are flipping parts of their course. They leverage methods such as distributing recorded portions of their class online or providing online learning materials for study prior to engaging their students face-to-face, thus reclaiming precious classroom time. By having their students familiarize themselves with the material ahead of time, they are able to transform their class into active learning sessions through group activities and discussions where students take the lead. Students benefit from being able to readily apply concepts while the instructor is able to answer questions and detect issues as they arise, providing immediate feedback. The theme for the Fall 2013 conference will focus on the ways the flipped classroom model is changing how languages are taught and learned.

Articles:

-Seven Things You Should Know About Flipped Classrooms

-The Flipped Classroom Infographic

We invite faculty and technology professionals to submit proposals that address any of these areas related to the flipped classroom model as they relate to:

-Research
