Flipped Classroom:

• Outside of Class time: Lectures and note taking.

• Class time: Practice problems, hands-on lab practices, and in-depth discussions.

• Lecture materials, in the form of video clips, are created by the Biology staff.

• These videos mirror classroom lectures with the exception that they can be paused, rewound, or rewatched.

• Increases exposure to content.

• Lessens the burden traditionally placed on students & parents at home.

• Creates more time in class for hands-on laboratory exercises, meaningful discussion, and the reinforcements that students need.

• Both parents & students can access the lectures, giving families a tool to help students prepare.
