A flipped classroom is structured around the idea that lecture or direct

instruction is not the best use of class time. Instead students

encounter information before class, freeing class time for activities that
involve higher order thinking.
A flipped classroom is an instructional strategy and a type of blended
learning, which aims to increase student engagement and learning by
having pupils complete readings at home and work on live problem-solving
during class time. Wikipedia

Inquiry-based learning is an unorthodox method of learning which

incorporates active participation of students by involving them in
posing questions and bringing real-life experiences to them. The
basis of this method is to channelize the thought process of the
students through queries and help them in “how to think" instead
of “what to think".
From a teacher point-of-view, inquiry-based teaching focuses on
moving students beyond general curiosity into the realms of
critical thinking and understanding. You must encourage students
to ask questions and support them through the investigation
process, understanding when to begin and how to structure an
inquiry activity.
Scaffolding is an instructional practice where a teacher gradually
removes guidance and support as students learn and become
more competent. Support can be for content, processes, and
learning strategies.
As we described earlier, scaffolds can be grouped into three main
categories: (1) materials and resources, (2) instruction, and (3)
student grouping. Figure 3.1, “Categories of Scaffolds,” provides
examples of each type of scaffold
What is an example of a scaffolding lesson?
Example: Read a summary of a book chapter, define key
vocabulary words, then read the chapter as a group and answer a
short quiz. Example: Watch a video about the chapter, define key
vocabulary words using a dictionary, then watch the video again
and summarize out loud to the teacher.

“Blended learning, also known as hybrid learning, is an approach

to education that combines online educational materials and
opportunities for interaction online with traditional place-based
classroom methods.”
