Pvt. schools switch to flipped learning for online classes

Students are given reading material ahead of the actual class

Many private schools in the city, especially those affiliated with Central boards, have adopted the ‘flipped learning’ methodology while conducting online classes. In this model, students are given reading material and lesson plans ahead of the actual class unlike the traditional format where they are introduced to a topic in the classroom and then revise it at home. The flipped learning model aims at having higher student engagement in classrooms and moves away from the traditional chalk-and-blackboard method. Students are asked to read or watch videos relevant to their lessons and teachers facilitate a discussion, help children brainstorm, and clarify their doubts in the virtual classrooms.
