Title: "Flipping" the Classroom Approach in Medical Education


Archive: 


Presenter: William Rayburn, MD, MBA, University of New Mexico

Facilitator: Barbara Barnes, MD, University of Pittsburgh

Overview: The flipped classroom describes an educational approach that reverses the traditional lecture and homework elements of a course. For those considering whether to flip their own classroom, a valuable question to ask is: “Do I use the time I spend in front of my students to best effect?” If the answer is “no,” then a transition to the flipped classroom, or adoption of at least some of its features, may be better. This simple and practical way of reinvigorating teaching and learning represents a unique combination of constructivist ideology and behaviorist principles, which can be used to address the gap between didactic education and clinical practice performance.

Objectives:

1. Describe the format of “flipping” the classroom.
2. Understand an ongoing project to illustrate tips about “flipping” a lecture.
3. Discuss implications of this approach with CME/CE/CPD.
