Flipping your classroom: Without flipping out

There is some contention as to who are considered to be the pioneers of flipped learning. Within the secondary school system Bergman and Sams, who used live video recordings and screencast software in 2007, are frequently mentioned [13]; while within the tertiary sector, Mazur’s work on peer instruction is often highlighted [4, 5]. While the phrase ‘flipped learning’ may be relatively new it has been practised by numerous academics and teachers for decades, and is the disciplinary norm in some contexts, for example, it is extensively used in social science classes.
