At the University of Cyprus, Dr. Constantinos Tsouris is transforming his English for the Workplace course by partially implementing the flipped learning approach, with remarkable success. ππ
π Case Study Highlight: English for the Workplace Course
Traditionally, Dr. Tsouris delivered lectures in class and assigned homework for practice. However, some students struggled with complex or novel concepts during their independent study time. To address this, Dr. Tsouris decided to flip his classroom at specific points in the semester. Hereβs how he did it:
π₯ Implementation of Flipped Learning
Pre-recorded Video Lectures: Core content delivered through 20-minute videos available on the universityβs learning management system.
Supplemental Materials: Interactive quizzes, reading assignments, and discussion forums to deepen understanding and engagement.
Active Learning Activities: Collaborative projects, group discussions, and hands-on practice aligned with video content.
Immediate Feedback: In-class activities allowed for real-time feedback and support.
π‘ Outcomes and Benefits
Enhanced Comprehension and Retention: Students reported higher levels of understanding and motivation.
Critical Thinking and Problem-Solving Skills: In-class activities required the application of theoretical knowledge in practical scenarios.
Improved Academic Performance: Expected increase in exam scores and overall grades.
The flipped classroom model is revolutionizing teaching, fostering active learning and critical thinking. Dr. Tsourisβs innovative approach exemplifies how leveraging technology and prioritizing active learning can create a more dynamic and effective educational experience. ππ
