Flipped Classroom
Our learners learn by discussing and debating on real-world problems and are actively involved in the solution design process.
Conventional classroom
Sage on Stage
- A teacher shares the knowledge via live presentations
- Teachers are at the center of the learning and considered sage on stage
- Knowledge transfer is one-way and the focus is on knowledge retention
- Learners don’t get to discuss their ideas or opinions in the class
- Hence, most learners are unable to apply these concepts in their everyday work life
- Great for scenarios, where knowledge acquisition and retention is the only focus
Flipped classroom
Guide on side
- Learners are the center of the universe
- Classes are meant for healthy discussions and debates on topics
- Learners go through the material on their own provided by the mentors
- Mentors work as guide on the side, with the learners
- Learners develop skills on problem solving, critical thinking and self-learning – the 21st century skills that employers look for
- Great for scenarios where application skills matter
- 21st century skills require guide on the side. Simply acquiring knowledge is worthless now.
