What is Flipped

Classroom?

Flipped Classroom is a teaching

strategy that reverses the

traditional learning environment

by delivering instructional content, outside of

the classroom. It moves activities like projects,

assignments, home works, etc. into the class.

4 Pillars of

Flipped Classroom

F L I P

Each letters of FLIP in flipped classroom represents its

four pillars, let’s look at into each of them

i. Flexible Environment: In flipped classroom, teachers need to create

flexible learning environment by providing opportunities for students to

choose when and where they want to learn.

ii. Learning Culture: In flipped model, class time is shifting to discuss more

in-depth about each topic. More over, flipped classroom changes the

traditional learning culture into learner centered class. As a result,

students are actively involved in knowledge construction.

iii.Intentional Content: Flipped learning requires intentional content. Means,

in flipped model, the teachers determine what they need to teach and what

materials students should handle on their own. Here, teachers use

intentional content to maximize class time in order to adopt learner-

centered, activity-oriented class.

iv.Professional Educator: The role of a professional educator is even more

important in a flipped classroom than in traditional one. The flipped model

needs instructors who can observe, provide timely feedback, continuously

assess work, and help students master content. This is something only

professional educators can do.
