Learning and Memory and Flipped Classroom.

I just realized the other day that it takes a lot of thinking to know how brain processes information. There are great strategies such as association and frame-working that help you retain things in your long term memory. It was interesting to note that a lot of students prefer to solve difficult problems in class instead of going over simpler problems that are repeated for the benefit of the whole class. This made me think that a flipped classroom model could work in this scenario. Students could be asked to read and process information at home and come to class to solve problems or solve the difficult problems that they could not tackle by themselves.
