What is Flipping the Script?
What is Flipping the Script?
While faculty are clearly the content experts regarding what they teach, students have a unique perspective on their own learning. As such, when we consider how to most effectively teach, it behooves us to listen to the learners, so we can learn from their unique knowledge and expertise. This conference, hosted by the Faculty Development Center, will “Flip the Script” to empower the learners to become the teachers, and the teachers to become the learners. It offers all of us an opportunity to straddle both worlds, and to grow through that opportunity.
With our appreciation...
