Episode 7: Flipping the Literature Classroom

Paige and Margaret tackle the flipped class! Due to the pandemic, we have all been forced to adapt our teaching styles for a changing world. In this episode, we consider how a flipped classroom can help engage our students when learning online and when learning in a traditional classroom! We explain what a flipped classroom is and how it can work for a literature course, our goals for flipping a class, and potential assignments for this style of learning. A flipped classroom can help our students better process, challenge, and reflect upon material. We decide that the ultimate benefit of a flipped classroom is encouraging our students to take agency over their education. Have you ever taught a flipped class or considered teaching a flipped class? We'd love to hear about your experiences and questions!

Om Podcasten

We are two friends who love teaching literature just as much as we love talking. Over the past five years or so, we have each taught a range of literature courses in a variety of contexts. Our experiences prompted us to think about what it means to teach literature in a twenty-first century classroom. In our podcast, we create a place to discuss literature pedagogy, consider the hurdles and concerns the majority of literature teachers will face, form a community to encourage collaboration, work through our own journey and questions, and share our general love for pedagogy. Let's craft our dream course together! Join in the conversation at our website: https://literaturely.wixsite.com/podcast
