is a pedagogical model where the typical lecture and homework elements of a course are reversed
Flipped Classroom Model The flipped classroom is an innovative educational approach that reimagines the traditional teaching model by reversing the roles of classroom activities and homework. Instead of using class time for direct instruction through lectures, the flipped model leverages that time for interactive learning experiences, problem-solving, and hands-on activities. Homework, on the other hand, involves students engaging with lecture materials, typically through pre-recorded videos or other content that they can process at their own pace outside the classroom. This pedagogical model shifts the focus from passive listening to active learning. In a traditional classroom setting, students often listen to lectures during class and then apply what they have learned through homework assignments on their own. The flipped classroom, however, encourages students to first encounter new concepts at home, where they can pause, rewind, and review instructional videos or reading materials. This initial exposure helps students gain a basic understanding before coming to class. Then, during class […]

Android Auto behaving weirdly with voice commands if you don’t use Google Maps? A fix is rolling out now
Recently, some Android Auto users have found that voice commands haven’t been working quite as they should, but it appears that a fix for the problem is arriving in an update now. As reported by 9to5Google, the problem is that Android Auto was passing voice commands through to Google Maps only, rather than to a user’s preferred navigation app (such as Waze). If you already have a navigation app running, Google Assistant is supposed to send your Android Auto voice commands to that app (and if one isn’t running, they should go the one you last used). However, it appears that Google Maps has been hijacking these commands, with all requests steered to the ‘default’ app. Apparently, it’s been possible to get around this by totally disabling Google Maps on your phone, but that’s not exactly ideal – just because you find Waze (or another app) to be preferable for driving in your area doesn’t stop you […]
