Introduction to Creating & Teaching Flipped, Active Learning Workshops

Participants will be able to do the following by the end of this workshop:

1. Will be able to describe how an active flipped workshop work functions, and what are its strengths and weaknesses for teaching digital fluency skills.
2. Will create three or more SMART learning outcomes for a digital fluency workshop before creating pre-class activities, or in-class activities.
3. When designing an active flipped workshop, participants will use pedagogies to differentiate the learning experiences for learners of different abilities (i.e. enable learners to work at their own pace).
4. Will identify ways to help connect the new skills being learned into knowledge the learners already have in the in-class activity.
5. Will be able to find or create appropriate pre-workshop videos and/or readings to prepare learners for the face-to-face hands-on activities.
6. Will create an outline for a new workshop in the following order: learning outcomes, in-class activities, pre-class prep quiz, pre-class videos, and finally, post-class assessment.
7. Will describe the difference between leading a workshop as a “Guide on the Side” as opposed to as a “Sage on the Stage.”
8. Will model best practices for leading a flipped digital fluency workshop, including energy level, introductions, and identifying participants who need help and aren’t asking for it.
