10 Reasons to Flip
Fulton, Kathleen P.
Phi Delta Kappan, v94 n2 p20-24 Oct 2012
A small school in southern Minnesota, strapped for funds and needing new math books and a fresh curriculum, flipped its classrooms and raised achievement and student engagement. The math teachers led and implemented the changes. Upon reflection, they found 10 good reasons educators should consider flipping their classroom. Among the most significant are that flipped classrooms allow students to move at their own pace, access curriculum 24/7, and teachers can use class time to work with students rather than deliver lectures. (Contains 3 figures.)
