The Flipped Classroom and Mobile Learning: A Pilot Project

This session will describe a pilot project that implements three innovative, high-impact pedagogies and assesses their effectiveness on student learning at the undergraduate level. Participants will learn research-based strategies for implementing and assessing the effectiveness of a flipped classroom at the college level, the use of mobile technologies as a key technology in an undergraduate course, and authentic assessment techniques such as an electronic portfolio. Participants also will explore how the use of these engaging techniques can increase student engagement and in turn affect retention, progression, and graduation (RPG) rates.

OUTCOMES: Learn strategies for implementing and assessing the effectiveness of a flipped classroom, implementing and assessing the effectiveness of the use of mobile technologies as a key technology in an undergraduate course, and implementing authentic assessment techniques (e-portfolios) * Understand the relationship between these strategies and the increase in student engagement and RPG
