Rather, the online component of the learning experience usually consists of exercises or additional content that complement the in-class lesson.
Flipped Classroom is a form of blended learning where a student is first exposed to new material outside of class, usually in the form of an online presentation. When the student attends class in a brick-and-mortar setting, the class time is used to apply the material in the form of problem-solving and discussion.
