One of the most recent innovations in education is the flipped classroom, developed in 2007 by Aaron Sams and Jonathan Bergman but based on a paper titled Inverting the Classroom by Lage, Platt, and Treglia in 2000. Under this model, the traditional classroom and home activities are “flipped.” Students go through new material first individually as homework, and thereafter, class time is used to discuss the new information, make clarifications, and practice. This model is student-centered since the learners interact with new information on their own and seek clarifications later from the teacher on troublesome points. It also allows each student to learn at their own pace in a controlled but conducive environment.
