I remember I class I took at Claremont, where you had to prepare a huge amount for the in class discussion. I found the class a lot of fun. Flipping is the idea watching lectures is done at home, and the actual interaction work, where an instructor had more value, is done in class. The challenge of so many classes, is the instructor is just repeating the same lecture again and again. What value does that have, vs. watching the same lecture on a video? Especially in a large lecture hall.
