Poster Session

Flipped Classroom Ideas, Experiences and Modified Flipped Tips and Tricks - Janel Greiman, University of Northern Colorado This poster presentation will show how more effective learning can be accomplished through flipped techniques in the ever-changing educational environment. This is a relevant need, as students need ever increasing knowledge to start their careers. Recruiters and manager who are hiring for entry-level positions have expectations of technical knowledge, critical thinking skills and recent graduates are expected to apply the concepts learned in higher education at a proficient level. This is very difficult to accomplish in a traditional classroom setting. Educators are tasked with preparing students to meet these increasing demands with the same amount of classroom time. We can use this limited time to aide students in the development of these skills more efficiently and effectively.
