Dictionary meaning
a pedagogical model in which the traditional sequence of classroom instruction and homework is reversed: students first encounter new material independently at home through video lectures, readings, or podcasts, then use classroom time for active learning activities such as discussion, problem-solving, collaborative projects, and teacher-facilitated practice; the flipped classroom aims to maximise the value of in-person interaction by reserving it for higher-order thinking tasks while freeing learners to proceed through introductory content at their own pace; pioneered by Jonathan Bergmann and Aaron Sams around 2007
