Lecture is a Poor Use of Instructional Time, But… More and more teachers are now willing to admit that lecture is not a great use of instructional time.
Many are even open to the idea of transitioning from traditional lecture to making short instructional video lessons. The concerns I hear most often from teachers about video lessons: How can I make sure students watch the videos? They’ll just fast-forward through most of it, if they watch it at-all.Won’t they just look up the answers to questions instead of watching?

Today, I wanted to focus on the end of that talk, which unpacked the concept of space a bit more. Here at Steelcase, I’ve been asked to think about the question, If you were to design a physical learning space specifically for flipped learning, what would it look like? I love this question because it makes me think carefully about the resources that flipped learning requires.
