| Description: | Inverted Lecture (also known as inverted classroom or flip teaching) denotes a concept that differs from traditional teaching methods. In the traditional method, lectures are treated as the primary way of delivering knowledge. Although this knowledge can be practiced in exercises afterwards, the first contact with it is quite passive. In the inverted lecture, on the other hand, this whole concept is reversed: Within a course, students start with learning the required knowledge on their own by listening to recorded lecture videos or by reading books. The “classroom session” is then only used to discuss and practice the already learned knowledge. In this way, students are encouraged to get more involved into the learning process as they learn more actively. The goal of this seminar is to get to know the principles of the inverted lecture concepts and to present results of case studies where this approach already has been utilized. Furthermore, techniques that contribute to such an active learning environment will be examined. This includes technology-based participation like online quizzes as well as learning games that can be used as a training environments and as motivational aspects. |
