An Advanced Teaching Technique: Flipped Classroom Approach

Image
      Hello There! Today, I will be talking about an unusual teaching method that we covered in my last class. This uncommon method is the flipped classroom approach! Unlike the traditional classroom model where teachers lecture during class and students complete assignments at home, a flipped classroom offers a teaching context where students only come to class to complete their assignments with their teacher while watching their courses online wherever they want.

 Hello there! Today, I will be talking about extraordinary teaching material. The material that I am talking about is augmented and virtual reality technology. Unlike the traditional teaching context in which it is difficult for students to engage with materials, this technology goes beyond the teaching limits! By using AR/VR technology, students can explore and examine new places, materials, objects, and even cities by themselves! It is an amazing feature for both students and teachers when it comes to the efficiency and quality of lessons. Using AR and VR in lessons has many benefits but has some disadvantages. When integrated with teaching materials, this technology makes lessons more engaging for students and allows students to explore places, and objects they have learned in the classroom. But for disadvantages, not all students can have a device that is connected to the internet. So this technology can only be implemented in certain classrooms for now. For our assignment, we ...
