A flipped classroom is a form of blended learning

The online portion of the course is used to share new information with students before in-person class time

When students attend the class, they build off what they’ve learned online by engaging in discussions, activities, and collaboration

In student-centered learning, the teacher's role is to encourage students to practice active learning, guide students to think positively, and facilitate students reaching their learning objective

TBL is a learning method for teaching reasoning

Higher level thinking skills are integrated into the teaching of instructional content

This method is useful because not only is content knowledge gained in an effective way, but it also fosters the development of critical-thinking skills

# data[].attributes.body
Students learn at their own pace

Learning is individualized and personalized

Build on prior knowledge and diverse experiences

Address disparities in foundational knowledge

Curriculum is intentionally examined to address bias and create culture of inclusivity

Culturally responsive support and instruction

Students are encouraged to develop their interests and talents

Teachers ensure that ALL students meet high levels of rigor

# data[].attributes.body
The flipped classroom can be an effective way to address individual differences among students

Students have access to digital learning resources that allow them to learn regardless of their character traits or learning styles

The flipped classroom can help students to become accountable for their learning and participate in a learning environment that makes all students feel like they have equal learning opportunities

Teachers meet different needs of students by offering choices in learning activities

A flipped classroom provides students with immediate, regular, and formative feedback

# data[].attributes.body
Equitable classroom practices start with aiding students in understanding the skills that they offer to the classroom are necessary for the classroom

Students need to have a voice and be confident in their thinking

Students taking on more responsibilities in their learning builds on their strengths, which fosters their creativity and critical thinking skills

# data[].attributes.body
Students receive instruction until they fully learn the concepts

Teachers gather real-time data on student mastery

Teachers track understanding and need for intervention

Teachers provide differentiation based on data and feedback

# data[].attributes.body
Flipped classrooms can never be truly face to face because the essence of the model is digitally learning material at home, not school

In person, the flipped classroom allows the teacher to move beyond the delivery of information to the application of knowledge

Students may engage in problem-based learning as a way to apply their knowledge and make real-world connections

Students may debate or discuss topics to develop a greater understanding

Collaborative activities allow students to interact with their peers by increasing engagement and comprehension

Ways to implement TBL into the classroom:

1. Make contact with specific thinking skills in the context of everyday life
2. Promote the use of one or more mind habits
3. Provide guidance to students in thinking efficiently by engaging content learning
4. Encourage students to think about their thinking

The flipped classroom model translates well to a virtual or hybrid environment because the majority of student learning is already completed digitally

Students learn new information asynchronously before a synchronously class session

Whole group sessions provide opportunities for discussions

Creating breakout sessions allows students to work in small groups and teachers can interact with the smaller groups to provide feedback and support

Students can also work collaboratively through shared documents

It is important for students in hybrid/virtual learning to integrate their thinking into the learning

Strategies to encourage students to build critical thinking skills and apply these skills in a digital learning environment include:

1. Use visuals to spark new learning
2. Use visual notes and graphic organizers to process current learning content
3. Reflect and give feedback

# data[].attributes.body
Continuously assess for success

Students are frequently assessed as they progress toward mastery

Emphasis on monitoring and measuring student progress

Formative and authentic

Embedded throughout the learning cycle

Application of knowledge

# data[].attributes.body
Success in a flipped classroom is measured in multiple ways:

1. Student grades - Because a flipped classroom is nontraditional, it is important to include traditional grades to show student progress to parents and the administration
2.  Formal feedback such as interviews and surveys and  informal feedback such as a show of hands or an anonymous poll. Both of these feedbacks are essential to gauge student engagement and alter content and activities appropriately, which promotes equity of instruction and student inclusion
3. Teachers may evaluate student behavior during face to face interactions because responses, body language, and behavior may reflect the level of student engagement

# data[].attributes.body
Performance-based assessments are well suited to measure student success with thinking-based learning

Students should be asked to demonstrate critical thinking within a real-world context

The product should be authentic
