Flipping the Classroom: An Example Using Good
Practices: USF SMART Lab
Advantages of flipping the classroom will be discussed and how that has
the potential to improve students’ understanding and achievement. The evidence
supporting this will be an overview of the SMART Lab which supports the
mathematics flipped classrooms at USF.
The design of the SMART Lab classes closely align with the seven
principles for good practice for undergraduate education: increases faculty
contact time with students, fosters cooperation, encourages active learning,
provides prompt feedback, emphasizes time on task, communicates high
expectations, and respects diverse talents and ways of learning. Data suggests
this venture has positive implications on students’ learning. Facilitated by
Fran Hopf.
