Bringing the Flipped Classroom Model to Library Instruction
UCC
Comments
The "flipped" classroom model, one in which the pedagogical paradigm is reversed and the students lead the class lesson at home and do homework in class, could be a viable way to teach library instruction sessions to college level students. This Ignite Talk illustrates a project that was done at LIU Post, where an instructor of the Library Competency Workshop course flipped their classroom. It will show the results of the study that compared pre- and post-test scores to sections of the class that were taught, by the same instructor, in a traditional lecture classroom model. The Ignite Talk will also illustrate how an instructor flipped their classroom along with the pros and cons of doing so.
