The Other Side of the Coin: Designing Meaningful Active Learning Exercises for your Classroom

So, you've flipped your class, now what? The magic in flipping a class isn't all in how the videos are created, what they look like, or where they're embedded.  The value in a flipped classroom comes from the time saved by moving lectures outside of the in-person time.  But how can we take full advantage of this "extra" time in the classroom?  This engaging, hands-on presentation will cover the following:

• Understanding why we flip a classroom in the first place, the benefits of active and experiential learning
• Learn how to create successful learning objectives and outcomes
• Understand how to center activities around your created objectives and outcomes
• Creating assessment measures to ensure your students get the feedback and ratings they need to learn
