This session will explore blended, flipping and online learning for the classroom. We will discuss why this is beneficial for the 1:1 classroom, why you might want to take this leap, what to think about before converting a course to an online environment, as well as the challenges and tips for a successful online course. Hear from teachers who are blending their classroom and also those participating in a blended learning cohort.
