Free Webinar: Blended Learning Best in Class: Flipping the Large Enrollment Lecture


BLENDED LEARNING BEST IN CLASS Flipping the Large Enrollment Lecture
An Inverted Webinar Event

Wednesday, May 16th | 12 PM Eastern Time (US)
The “Flipped Classroom” is all the rage in higher ed these days. The flipped classroom model, where core content is delivered before the scheduled lecture and in-class time involves interactive learning, is gaining fresh attention given the adoption of technologies like lecture capture. Lecture capture, or the process of creating recorded digital content for student viewing, increases in relevance as the foundation of a solid blended learning strategy.
As a 2010 recipient of the Echo360 Blended Learning Grants Program, The University of Texas at Austin took a deep dive into exploring the value of the flipped classroom model in large enrollment higher education courses.
Register for this live webinar event where the project investigators will discuss the results of the study, specifically:
  • Why lecture capture was first introduced at UT Austin
  • How lecture capture is deployed on campus
  • What faculty learned about integrating collaborative active learning activities in the large classroom
  • How students reacted to the inversion of the classroom
In addition, the UT Austin research team will reveal how use of the flipped classroom model improved student learning, satisfaction, and engagement.
