This document reviews literature on the flipped classroom model and its benefits compared to traditional teaching methods. The flipped model moves direct instruction outside of the classroom via videos and assignments, allowing class time to be used for hands-on activities, projects, and addressing student questions. Research shows the flipped model increases student engagement and motivation, allows individualized pacing, and encourages teachers to improve instruction. While technology and accountability are obstacles, these can be addressed through high-quality instructional videos and assigning work for a grade. The flipped model provides an effective alternative to traditional teaching.

Better: The Benefits of a
Flipped Classroom Model By Kaleigh Braverman and Emma Webster ED 776 Theory and Research on Teaching Abstract This review of literature examines a flipped classroom teaching model in order to explore the benefits of using such a model in a variety of classrooms. The traditional teaching model has been a problematic issue because students access and learn the information through presentation and lecture. Students become disengaged and miss out on opportunities to practice and absorb the new knowledge taught. Literature was chosen from a variety of online resources including educational journals and both informal and formal articles limited to the years 2012-2016. Findings and conclusions from the literature reviewed were compared for similarities and differences in order to find patterns and themes. Our findings revealed that a flipped classroom is a highly effective and engaging alternative to traditional teaching methods. Based on the literature reviewed, we concluded that a flipped classroom increases student motivation, offers students the opportunity to work at their own pace and take responsibility of their own learning, and it encourages teachers to reflect on and perfect their own instructional practices. Introduction What is Flipped classroom instruction? • A teaching model that can be integrated into classrooms using technology and hands-on activities. • This blended learning structure flips the traditional model, giving teachers the opportunity to deliver instruction outside of the classroom via technology. • Allows for hands-on activities to be moved into the classroom for teachers to be able to support students in their exploration of concepts. Teachers today face a detrimental problem – teaching students with differing learning styles and abilities in the same setting. To solve this problem, teachers need an alternative to the traditional classroom model, allowing for responsive instruction and facilitation of higher- level cognitive skills for all students. This literature review is significant because the flipped classroom model is one solution to this problem. Analysis of Literature How can flipped classroom models benefit stakeholders including students and teachers? • Maximizing productive classroom time for teachers and students. • Students who are absent can easily catch up with instructional content and review what was missed. • Students appreciate having the opportunity to work through instructional content at their own pace in the flipped classroom model. • Both students and teachers had positive outlooks when working in a flipped classroom and noted increased levels of interest, engagement, and motivation. This led to increased academic achievement and increased learning gains. Analysis of Literature How do we overcome obstacles to the flipped classroom model? Potential obstacles; technology and accountability. • Technology: Finding appropriate, high-quality instructional videos to deliver differentiated instruction outside of the classroom. 1. Teachers should create their own high-quality screencast videos as well as access reputable resource materials from educational websites. 2. Teachers share their resources with their Professional Learning Networks for others to use as well. • Accountability: Students, especially those new to the flipped classroom structure, may be reluctant to take responsibility for their own learning outside of the classroom. 1. To avoid this, the researchers all suggest having students complete assignments related to content learned outside of the classroom for credit towards their grade. Analysis of Literature How do we use technology to enhance the flipped classroom model? • Through the use of… • instructional videos • podcasts • screencasts • Learning Management Systems • YouTube application for asynchronous lessons for out-of-class learning.
It is important to share resources with colleagues pursuing
the flipped classroom model in order to effectively enhance instruction and activities through the use of technology. Conclusions A Flipped Classroom... • Offers a new approach to teaching that combines learner-centered instruction with learning that can be applied in the real world. • Uses engaging videos and technology resources to help students focus on their own learning at home. • Teachers maximize class time to • complete higher-level cognitive activities • real-world experiments • build relationships with students • deliver differentiated and responsive instruction • work one-on-one with struggling students. The literature evaluated in this review supports the notion that the innovative flipped classroom model is an excellent alternative to the traditional model in the wake of a difficult time in education.
