Did it work for you? Did you learn better that way? Did you find the classroom time to be more of a waste in the inverted system?
So the thing is, in some classes I think it could be totally fine. But in others I'm not so sure. For example I'm taking the statistics 1 and 2 to brush up. The first one was given by an instructor that's an enormous inverted classroom type. I aced the class and the thing is it feels like I didn't learn a single thing. I can barely tell you anything about statistics. It moved sooo slowly and we spent so much time at every tiny step. He'd talk for 10 minutes and make us get together with our groups to talk about what he just talked about. I'm now in the 2nd class and honest to god it feels like I've learned and retained more the first 2 days than the previous 11 weeks. The new professor is more "inverted-lite" almost as if she was told by the dept they need to do this (from my understanding the schools push it hard) so the group stuff still happens but it's a lot less frequently and we're always working on our own thing and not having the group turn in the assignment.
I can see how it can work. Especially maybe with the Arts or soft science classes. With a talented instructor and implemented correctly. But honestly it feels like a cost savings thing. A method to have larger classes by making the students learn for themselves. If this way really works for some people then I wonder if a 100% online course might serve some of them better.
The European lecture format is a thing of the past. Asian active learning is the way to go.
