In the flipped classroom model, what do students do at home?

In the flipped classroom model, students engage with instructional content at home, typically through video lectures. This approach allows them to learn at their own pace, pausing and rewatching portions of the lecture as needed. By freeing up class time from direct instruction, teachers can use that time for interactive activities, discussions, and hands-on projects that reinforce the material learned outside of school.

The engagement at home primarily focuses on gaining understanding through lectures rather than collaborative projects, assessments, or online discussions, which are better suited for the in-class environment where assistance and immediate feedback can be provided. This distinguishing factor makes video lectures a fundamental aspect of the flipped classroom model.
