This article describes one approach to flipping an introductory sociology course. To encourage students to practice 'doing' sociology, we designed a flipped classroom that included a 'pay to play' model, small group work and an emphasis on active learning during class time. With this course design, we linked in-class active learning with outside…

The medical education system in the United States has gone through a rapid transition to emergency remote teaching as a consequence of the COVID 19 pandemic. For the Engineering Medicine (EnMed) track of the College of Medicine at Texas A&M University, the most challenging aspects are the transition from in-class team-based learning (TBL) to…

Collaboration is often emphasized as one of the key twenty-first century competencies to promote scientific literacies through many representational modes. However, collaborative interactions have been often characterized as a coordinated, synchronous, and symmetrical activity in terms of the same level of knowledge with little attention paid…
