Flipping the Classroom: Applying Flipped Teaching Methods to Library Instruction

The flipped or inverted classroom is a teaching model that requires students to view presentations and lecture videos before class and then use class time to work on assignments and active problem solving. This session will discuss the experiences of librarians at the University of St. Thomas Law Library and the University of South Dakota Libraries who have incorporated flipped classroom techniques into their library\u27s instruction program. During the session, the presenters will discuss preparing online lectures and other class materials for their flipped classroom, their student learning outcomes, and the benefits and drawbacks of using this particular teaching method. Following this presentation, participants will understand inverted instruction’s applicability to information literacy programs, appreciate its benefits for both students and librarians, and be able to apply inverted or flipped pedagogy to their own information literacy instruction
