Flipping classrooms - using class time for hands-on learning and "off loading" the lecture portion of lessons as homework - is taking schools by storm. This book makes the case to educational leaders for the benefits of flipping. Backed by powerful data (including past Speak Up data) and anecdotes, topics include:

• Data on positive student outcomes in terms of achievement and motivation
• How flipping gives teachers more time to work with students one-on-one and encourage peer learning
• How flipping engages students in 21st century skills
• Ways flipping is budget and resource-friendly
