SUMMARY:Flipped Classroom Model of Teaching
DESCRIPTION:Flipped Classroom Model of Teaching\nParticipants \nFaculty\, Researchers and Teaching Fellows/Assistant \nBackground and Rationale\nTraditional lecture-based teaching\, while efficient for content delivery\, often results in passive learning\, limited student engagement\, and poor knowledge retention. Modern pedagogical approaches shift focus from teacher-centered delivery to student-centered exploration collaboration\, and technology integration. \nAmong these\, the flipped classroom model has emerged as the most effective and transformative method that maximizes classroom interaction and fosters deeper learning. It reverses the traditional teaching paradigm and leads to indigenous content creation\, technology integration\, critical thinking\, instant assessment\, and personalized learning. This training program is designed to equip faculty members with the knowledge\, skills\, and tools to successfully implement the flipped classroom model in their courses. \nTraining Objectives\nBy the end of the program\, participants will be able to: \n\nUnderstand the limitations of traditional teaching\nExplore modern teaching approaches and their relevance in higher\nDesign and deliver effective pre-class indigenous digital\nFacilitate active learning strategies during classroom\nGenerate new knowledge by embedding their personal experiences\nLearn instant assessment strategies\nApply the flipped classroom model to their own\nEvaluate the effectiveness of flipped learning in improving student outcomes\n\nDuration:\n90-120 minutes \nMode:\nInteractive\, Storytelling and a Few Slides.
