Although, in a perfect world, all students will complete the necessary requirements at home and ahead of time, we know as educators that this is not always the case. Some will argue that it could actually be counterproductive to utilize this model if students are not able to access the necessary technology at home or if they choose not to complete the work altogether. Then, students are entering the classroom unprepared, and the teacher is forced to teach the lesson in person regardless, even though they could have accomplished this the day before. What could be an effective strategy to combat this fear when introducing this to educators who have not engaged in the Flipped Learning classroom model before?
Although the Flipped Classroom Model has been shown to be beneficial in many ways, one of the most significant downfalls is the immense learning curve for both instructors and students. Due to the fact that the Flipped Model differs greatly from traditional "face to face" teaching and learning, instructors must be able to successfully encourage the students to "buy-in" from inception. Moreover, the instructor must take additional time to adequately prepare in advance for the multitude of lectures and activities through multimedia integration that is necessary for an effective Flipped Classroom model. If the instructor is able to execute the preparation successfully, they must also be prepared to convince students that the in-person component is necessary for true and meaningful learning, even though the student might think that they have learned enough through the independent "at home" portion of the lecture. Hence, the fear is that students might not completely engage in the Flipped Classroom model if they feel that they were able to learn all that they need to know at home through the presentations given by the professor (EDUCAUSE, 2012).
