If and how best to plan flipped classroom class teaching via open distance learning with participants from multiple and widely ranging time zones?
I am a researcher based at the University of Leeds in the UK specialising in computational geography (for about 15 years). I practise both face to face and open distance teaching. In the last 10 years I was trained primarily via the UK e-Science program and am reasonably well connected with the group in the UK Joint Information Systems Committee (JISC) that interfaced with this. I have also recently started a University of Leeds Teaching Awards Staff and Departmental Development phase 2 (ULTA-2) course which is innovative and run in an open minded and interactive way. I am learning about blended learning and flipped classrooms and am very interested generally in the use of technology for teaching and research. I arrived here via information sent by one of the other participants in cohort 3 of the ULTA-2 course :-)
