A Good Flipped Classroom Case 10 from ENGL - Dr Nate Ming Curran

This case study explores the application of the flipped classroom model in the course "Critical Language and Cultural Studies" (ENGL520), led by Dr. Nate Ming Curran from the Department of English and Communication. It details the pedagogical rationale for this approach and provides a clear outline of its implementation. The study highlights effective strategies for structuring student learning, including the appropriate use of scaffolding to build complex skills and the effective deployment of group learning and questioning strategies. While the model shows a positive impact, the case study candidly addresses the persistent challenge faced by many educators: ensuring consistent and meaningful active student participation during in-class activities.
