Designed for instructors who are interested in learning about new pedagogy and instructional tools. The “flipped classroom” model is traditionally structured as a blended learning environment in which instructors can engage students using low-­‐cost technologies. Specifically, this short course will address the following: strategies to “flip” the traditional communication classroom, evaluation of student work, and strategies/technology available to deliver course content. Short course participants will receive sample syllabi for various communication courses that have been flipped; as well as assignments, activities, and teaching ideas for delivering course content in a blended format.
