Marzano Research: Enhancing the Art & Science of Teaching With Technology

I have been reading Robert Marzano's book, Enhancing the Art & Science of Teaching With Technology.  He talks about the Flippped Classroom.  Here's an excerpt:

“One classroom-level example of the power of technology to restructure the old paradigm is the flipped classroom. A flipped classroom is one in which students listen to online lectures at home at night and then use that content at school the next day. Table 1.1 compares a traditional classroom to a flipped classroom.
In the flipped model, students listen to a short lecture (ten to fifteen minutes) and take notes as homework the evening before they cover the information in class. As shown in table 1.1, this frees up class time that would traditionally be spent introducing new content and resolving student confusion about the previous day’s homework. Therefore, students in the flipped model still complete the same amount of independent practice work as students in a traditional model, but they do it during class instead of as homework. Rather than complete assignments without teacher guidance at home, students complete them in school, where teachers are there to offer help or answer questions.”
