A Technology-Enabled Flipped Classroom Model

The Flipped Classroom

Abstract

This chapter presents the approach taken by LKCMedicine, NTU Singapore to re-imagine the learning and teaching paradigm. Building on the creative and skilful weaving of the strands of technology, curriculum and pedagogy, we create a unique DNA. Central to the development of the LKCMedicine, DNA is the replacement of a lecture-based curriculum via a rich and seamlessly integrated technology-enabled team-based learning (TBL) pedagogy. To that end, we present how our mobile technologies play a key role in ensuring that pedagogy remains at the forefront of the learner experience. The chapter outlines how to exploit mobile and tablet technologies to (i) dispense with face-to-face lectures, (ii) facilitate personalised learning, and (iii) actively engage students through extended communication opportunities.

Notes

  1. 1.

    The Renaissance Engineering programme was selected for its resemblance to the medical school insofar as it had a fixed curriculum and top students especially selected to meet exceptional standards of practise.

  2. 2.

    E-Learning Ecosystem refers to the efficient and productive integration of infrastructure, i.e., bandwidth, network and hardware; software solutions designed to run on the infrastructure, i.e., learning management systems, rich media systems; and content, i.e., learning tasks, learning resources and learning support enabled by the healthy symbiosis of infrastructure and solutions.
