The Flipped Class: Experience in a University Business Communication Course

Tammy Sherrow Mount Royal University ; Brenda Lang Mount Royal University ; Rod Corbett Mount Royal University

Abstract

Business, like many other programs in higher education, continues to rely largely on traditional classroom environments. In this article, another approach to teaching and learning, the flipped classroom, is explored. After a review of relevant literature, the authors present their experience with the flipped classroom approach to teaching and learning in a postsecondary business communication course. Instructor and student experiences with the flipped classroom are presented. Readily available tools that made the implementation of the flipped classroom approach more feasible are discussed.
