FLIPPING A LAW CLASS SESSION: CREATING EFFECTIVE ONLINE CONTENT AND REAL WORLD IN-CLASS TEAM MODULES

Abstract
This paper discusses the teaching and learning experience of flipping a business law and ethics class session in a hybrid format. While this experiment was done at the graduate level, the lessons are easily applicable to and adaptable for use at the undergraduate level. Part I discusses the online video content; the coordination of university technology personnel to create the video; the software platform to capture material and password protect it; and the intellectual property issues relating to that content. Part II provides a description of each team module, the tasks that students completed outside of class for the modules, and specific instructions on team presentations in class.
Tips for Ensuring a Successful Video Capture Session in an Empty Classroom:
- Dress as you would for a typical class;- Look directly into the camera as much as possible; - Do not stand behind a computer podium (For PowerPoint, use a remote clicker to advance slides.);- Understand that there is a different dynamic when speaking to a camera, without the synergy presented by an inquisitive audience;- Slow down;- Aim to be as natural as you are in class; and Edit the presentation with the assistance of the IT staff if you stumble during the session
